Model Reset is typically used to clear the programming for a model you will no longer be flying Model

MODEL COPY
The Model Copy function copies the currently selected model's programming of another model
memory. Thirty model memories are available. Some of the more common uses of the Model Copy
function include:
•Moving the order of models around in model memory so they can be organized by category, type, etc.
Note: You will need to re-bind after moving models. •Experimenting with the programming for an
aircraft while preserving a copy of the original setup. Note: if you want to use the model copy
function to try two slightly different setups with the same model you will need to rebind the
receiver each time you switch between model memories.
•Copying the programming for an existing model over to a new model that is similar. Many pilots
find this to be a good way to provide more accurate baseline programming for the new model.
For example Vibe 50 w/120CCPM mixing, gyro and governor programming provides a good
base programming for any other nitro powered 120CCPM mixing helicopter. An Extra 300 with
dual aileron and elevator servos that is properly programmed with dual flap and dual elevator
mixing in Wing Type provides good foundational programming for another aerobatic airplane
with the same basic control system.
Important: The model memory you are copying to will be over-written by the copied
programming, permanently deleting any programming that may already exist. To Access the
Model Copy Function
Press and hold the roller while turning on the transmitter. When System Setup appears on the
screen, release the roller. The DX8 is now in System Setup Mode.
