① Never operate models during adverse weather conditions. Poor visibility can cause disorientation and loss of control of pilots ‘model.

② Never use this product in a crowd or illegal areas.

③ Always check all servos and their connections prior to each run.

④ Always be sure about turning off the receiver before the transmitter.

⑤ To ensure the best radio communication, please enjoy the flight/driving at the space without interference such as high voltage cable, communication base station or launching tower.

WARNING

This product is not a toy and is NOT suitable for children under the age of 14. Adults should keep the product out of the reach of children and exercise caution when operating this product in the presence of children.

Water or moisture may enter the transmitter inside through gaps in the antenna or joystick and cause model instability, even out of control. If running in the wet weather (such as game) is inevitable, always use plastic bags or waterproof cloth to cover the transmitter.

INTRODUCTION

Note that in the text of this manual, beginning at this point, any time we are using a feature’s specialized name or abbreviation as seen on the screen of the AT10II, that name, feature, or abbreviation will be exactly as seen on the radio’s screen, including capitalization and shown in a DIFFERENT TYPE STYLE for clarity. Any time we mention a specific control on the radio itself, such as moving SWITCH A, KNOB VR(B), or the THROTTLE STICK, those words will be displayed as they are here.

Compatible Receivers

AT10II is a 12 channels transmitter, support 2.4G DSSS and FHSS spread spectrum working synchronously, 16 channels pseudo random frequency hopping.

AT10II sells with dual antenna receiver R12DS which support SBUS and PWM signal output simultaneous, signal coverage all around, never afraid of hilly terrain.

Besides R12DS, AT10II also compatible with Radiolink R6DS, R9DS, R10DS and super mini 10 channels receiver R6DSM and 12 channels mini dual antenna receiver R12DSM.

R6DS, is a 6 channels receiver when working with PWM signal while it is a 10 channels receiver when working with SBUS or PPM signal.

R9DS, is a 9 channels receiver when working with PWM signal while it is a 10 channels receiver when working with SBUS signal.

Pay Attention: AT10II is default 12 channels, you have to setup AT10II to 10 channels first if you use receivers R6DS, R6DSM, R9DS and R10DS.

How to setup to 10 channels transmitter: power on your AT10II—Press Mode button one second to into BASIC MENU—into SYSTEM menu—change CH-SELECT from 12CH to 10CH.

Since Radiolink radio control systems are not open source, that Radiolink transmitters just compatible with Radiolink receivers and vice versa.

RSSI Testing

Power on transmitter and receiver, keep transmitter apart from receiver about 30 centimeters and the antenna straight.

Into the parameter setup menu by press MODE one second, you can check the RSSI in RECEIVE menu.

The RSSI is 0 to 30dBm is normal when the transmitter is apart about 30 centimeters from the receiver, the signal is better the RSSI data is closer to 0.

Radio Installation

Mount the Servos, Receiver and Battery

• Make certain the alignment tab on the battery, switch and servo connectors is orient correctly and ‘key’ into the corresponding notch in the receiver or connectors before plugging them in .When unplugging connectors, never pull on the wires. Always pull on the plastic connector instead.

• Receiver’s Antenna: In generally receiver’s antenna is longer than remote control, don’t break or retract it, otherwise shorten the control distance. The antenna must be kept away from conductive materials, such as metal. Please make distance test before flying.

• If your aileron servos are too far away to plug into the receiver, use an aileron extension cord to extend the length. Avoid plugging multiple extensions together to obtain your desired length. If the distance is greater than 50cm or high current draw servos are being used, use heavy servo extensions.

• Receiver Vibration and Waterproofing: the receiver contains precision electronic part. Be sure to avoid vibration, shock, and temperature extremes. For protection, wrap the receiver in foam rubber or other vibration-absorbing materials. It is also a good idea to waterproof the receiver by placing it in a plastic bag and securing the open end of the bag with a rubber band before wrapping it with foam rubber. If you accidentally get moisture or fuel inside the receiver, you may experience intermittent operation or a crash. If in doubt, please contact Radiolink after cares or distributors for service.

• Always mount the servos with the supplied rubber grommets. Don’t over tighten the screws. No part of the servo casing should contact the mounting rails, servo tray or any part of structure. Otherwise, vibration will be transmitted to the servo causing damage of servo. Note the small numbers (1, 2, 3, and 4) molded into each arm on the servo arms. The number indicate how many degrees each arm is ‘off’ from 90 degrees to correct for minute manufacturing deviations from servo to servo.

• To center the servos, connect them to receiver and turn on the transmitter and receiver. Center the trims on the transmitter, then find the arm that will be perpendicular to the pushrod when placed on the servo.

• After the servos are installed, operate each servo over its full travel and check that the pushrods and servo arms don’t bind or contact each other. Also make sure the controls do not require excess force to operate. If there is an objectionable buzzing sound coming from a servo, there is probably too much resistance in the control. Find and correct the problem. Even is there is no servo damage, excess battery drain will result.

• Use the mounting plate from the receiver on/off switch as a template for the cutout and screw holes, mount the switch on the side of the fuselage opposite the engine exhaust, and where it won’t be inadvertently turned on or off during handling or storage. Be certain the switch moves without restriction and ‘snaps’ from ON to OFF, and that the cutout allows full motion of the switch in both directions.

• When install the switch harness to the helicopter please use the switch cover. Generally sandwich the frame between the switch and switch cover and securely tighten the screws, Different models might require different installations. If so, please follow the model’s instruction manual.

• To prevent the servo lead wires from being broken by vibration during flight, provide a slight amount of slack or extra so that the wire sticks out slightly and fasten it at suitable points. In addition, periodically check the wire during daily maintenance.

The above listed receiver and channels is referred to the channel 1~11 of the receiver R12DS, connect the receiver with the related servo, you can control the servos by the correspondent switch.

To be clear, the servo connected with the receiver channel 1 is controlled by the radio aileron lever, servo connected with channel 2 is controlled by elevator lever, servo connected with channel 3 is controlled by throttle stick, servo connected with channel 4 is controlled by the rudder lever. Channel 5~11 can be self-set with the related switches by the menu AUX-CH, and the sub menu. For SBUS signal channel, is output by the 3 pin of 12 row.

Signal working modes:

There are two signal working modes, PWM and SBUS&PWM signal output. Short press ID SET twice within 1s, the working mode will change.The RED led indicates the PWM output and BLUE/PURPLE led indicates SBUS signal.

(1) PWM signal output working mode：RED led indicates PWM signal output, 11 channels totally.

(2) SBUS&PWM dual signal output working mode: BLUE/PURPLE led indicates SBUS&PWM signal output at the same time with 12 channels totally. SBUS signal channel(3 pin of row 11) outputs 12 channels of SBUS signal while PWM signal channels(3 pin from row 1 to row 10, i.e CH3 to CH12) output PWM signals with 12 channels in total. The actual channel quantity of PWM signal output depends on that of SBUS signal output used. Eg. If 4 channels of SBUS signal output used, then there are only 8 channels of PWM signal output left.

Installment of Antenna

1. Receiver Antenna Installment

• Keep antennas as straight as possible and 90° as below, or the effective control range will reduce.

• Big models may contain metal parts that influence signal emission. In this case, antennas should be positioned at both sides of the model to ensure the best signal status in all circumstances.

• Antennas should be kept away from metal conductor and carbon fiber at least half inch away and no over bending.
• Keep antennas away from motor, ESC or other possible interference sources.

Note Receiver contains some electronic components of high-precision. Be careful to avoid strong vibration and high temperature.

When all the above steps are complete, please turn off the transmitter and repower on to test if the receiver is correctly connected with it.

1. Transmitter Antenna Installment

• The transmitter antenna is adjustable so please make sure that the antenna never points directly at the model when flying as this may possibly decrease the receiver signal.
• Keep the antenna perpendicular to the transmitter to optimize the receiver performance. It also depends on how you hold the transmitter. But in most cases, adjusting the antenna with perpendicular position to the transmitter surface will achieve the best result. Please adjust the transmitter antenna according to the way you hold the transmitter.
• Never grip the antenna when flying as this degrades effective control range.

Installment of Antenna

Basic Setting of the Transmitter

① Display language: can be selected the display language of the function name, etc. in each function menu. The screen reads «LANGUAGE». Change this to the desired language.

② Stick Mode: The screen reads «STK-MODE». Change this to the correct mode. Note that this will NOT change the throttle and elevator ratchets, etc. Those are mechanical changes that must be done by a service center.
③ RF Mode: the LED indicator will become solid green when RF Mode is active

④ Adjusting Display Contrast: To adjust the display contrast, from the home menu press and hold the END BUTTON. Turn the DIAL while still holding the END BUTTON: clockwise to brighten and counterclockwise to darken the display.

⑤ User name setting: user name can be set by DIAL and PUSH with letters and numbers.

⑥ Alarming voltage:

Transmitter: preset 8.6V, can be self-set

Receiver: preset 4.0V, can be self-set

Ext: preset 10.1V, can be self-set

Model Type

 Under basic menu, use CURSOR to select MODEL TYPE and enter by pressing PUSH. There are 6 different type included in the system, HELICOPTER, AEROBASIC, GLID(1A+1F), GLID(2A+1F), GLID(2A+2F), and MULTIROTOR, after model type is selected, press and hold PUSH for 1 second, when the word “are you sure to change” displayed, model type is changed.

Binding

Each transmitter has an individually assigned, unique ID code. Receiver should bind to transmitter before starting operation. Once binding is complete, the ID code will be stored in the receiver and no further binding is necessary unless the receiver is used with another transmitter. When you purchase a new R12DS, this procedure is necessary, otherwise the receiver will not work.

1. Put the transmitter and the receiver close to each other within 50 centimeters.

2. Power on AT10II and receiver R12DS. The RED LED will be on.

3. Turn on AT10II and it will automatically bind to the closest receiver.

4. There is a black binding button (ID SET) on the side of receiver. Press the button for more than 1 second and release, the RED (by default, could be Purple for SBUS&PWM signal output) LED will flash, meaning binding process is ongoing.

5. When the LED stops flashing and is always on , binding is complete.

Make sure servos connected with the receiver can be operated by the transmitter.

Note

AT10II is default 12 channels and can be changed to 10 channels. In order to bind to non 12-channel receivers(R6DS,R6DSM,R9DS), channel quantity needs to change to 10 channels.

How to setup the channel quantity of the transmitter: power on AT10II—Long press MODE to enter BASIC MENU— Toggle the CURSOR to select and enter SYSTEM —change CH-SELECT from 12CH to 10CH.

Since RadioLink radio control systems are not open source, that RadioLink transmitters are ONLY compatible with RadioLink receivers.

Transmitter Displays & Buttons

When you first turn on your transmitter, a confirmation double beep sounds, and the screen shown below appears. Before flying, or even starting the engine, be sure that the model type and name appearing on the display matches the model that you are about to fly! If you are in the wrong model memory, servos may be reversed, and travels and trims will be wrong, leading to an immediate crash.

Warning and error display

 When the transmitter is powered on, warning or error may happen by the following probability:

1. Battery low voltage alarming

Lithium battery 2S-4S can fit for the transmitter, warning voltage can be self-set according to different battery.

   Setting step: power on the transmitter, press and hold MODE one second to enter basic menu, and press PUSH to enter PARAMETER. Choose TX ALARM by DIAL and PUSH to change relative data. Suggested min voltage is not less than 7.4V.

   When the transmitter voltage is less than the setting voltage, it will beep till the transmitter is powered off. Most important thing is to land your model plane when the transmitter alarms.

2. Mixing alarm

When the transmitter alarms mixing, it means at least one mixed switch is active. And when it is inactive, warning will stop then. When the transmitter is powered on, in different model type, mixing switch is shown as below:

  ACRO: throttle cut, idle down, snap roll, air brake

  GLID: butterfly, condition

  HELI: throttle cut, throttle lock, speed up

If the warning continues even the related switch is set OFF, probably it is because some programs mixed by one switch and status OFF reversed. Now you need to set mixing alarm again by DIAL.

Basic Function of Airplane

Please pay attention that the (BASIC) menu is suitable for all type models (airplane, helicopter, glider, multicopter). The motor cut will be introduced in Glider (Basic) Menu, except Idle down &Throttle cut. Helicopter Basic Menu include some extra function (swash plate tilting, throttle and pitch curves and the tail rotor anti torque mixing under normal flight model) will be discussed in Helicopter section.

Acro Basic Menu

 Turn CURSOR KEY to scroll through choices within an option of a function.

Press PUSH BUTTON to select a function.

Basic 4-Channel Airplane

This guide is intended to help you acquainted with the radio, to give you some ideas and direction on how to do. We give you a big picture overview of what we accomplish; a ‘by name’ description of what we’re doing to help you with the radio; then a step-by-step instruction to leave out the mystery when setting up your model.

For additional details on each function, see that function’s section in this manual.

With digital trims you don’t shut the engine off with THROTTLE TRIM. Let’s set up IDLE-DOWN and ‘throttle cut’

Airplane Basic Function

Model Select

Model submenu: includes three function that manage model memory: MODEL SELECT,MODELCOPY and MODEL NAME. Since these functions are related, and all basic features are used with most models, they are together in the Model submenu.

MODEL SELECT

   Totally there are 15 models stored in the system, followed by model name and plane type to use on tap, thus you don’t need to set every time for different plane. MODEL NAME, MODEL TYPE and transmitter voltage. Make sure that MODEL TYPE is accomplished with your plane type before flight. Or it will cause error in servo and rudder.

COPY

  Save the present data as another model type, it will be displayed by shadow area to differ from. When this copy start, the object data will be fully covered including name, type and module type, and cannot recover.

 Caution: when you save the present model type as another, all related data will be copied including the original model name. Accordingly, if you want to change the model type, the whole data need to reset, also for model name. The first thing to copy is to change the model type or delete the original name and rename a new model to avoid confusion.

Model Name

   This is used to set the present model name. Name all model to identify each other, and fast select the model type and reduce possible crash by wrong model type using.

   Format to name a model:

•the name can be more than 9 characters

•every character can be letter, number, blank or special characters

•factory setting name MODEL-XXXX will be shown as (example model 1 display MODEL-0001)

Sub-menu select: All parameters need one time setting. After the model type selected, you need to set the related data for it.

•what is the model type

•whether the throttle channel 3 is right for the selected model type? Or you need to make sure channel 3 is of full range adjustable (glider only). Also to different model, you can set by throttle reverse correspondingly.

Initialize the original data first, and set new data for the selected model type

Model reset: model reset is available in factory only. If you want to delete a new set model type, you need to delete one by one.

Model type select

•ACRO basic:

 Drive ACRO basic type (multi airfoil. Detail in Twin Aileron Servos, Twin Elevator Servos, ELEV-FLAP mix and V-tail)

•glider:

 Different tail type (detail in glider type)

•helicopter:

 8 swash plate types (detail in helicopter type)

 Caution: decide a model type for the model plane. To most fixed wing plane, aero basic is better, because it has some function glider doesn’t have. While sometimes, glider (2A+1F) is better.

•functions specially for aero basic:

   •snap roll

   •ELEV-flap mix (twin Elevator Servos support)

   •oil power plane: idle down、throttle shut、throttle needle mix etc.

•functions aero basic doesn’t have:

   5 individual flight conditions (normal, start, speed, distance, landing)

   If the model type selected for glider or helicopter, please go to the related chapter for setting. After model type changed, all parameters need to reset, including name.

Model Type

Data reset

   All set data can be reset to factory setting. This function will not delete all model type set in the radio.

   Setup step:

Enter the basic menu for MODEL TYPE, use dial to choose a proper type and press PUSH for one second, when the screen displays “are you sure”, press PUSH and the radio will beep, and it is set to factory data.

• Caution: don’t power the radio off before setting is finished, or the setting is invalid.

Model Select

Second aileron AILE-2) (ACROGLID1A+1FGLID2A+1F only): change the default choice for dual aileron servos from channels 6(FLAPERON) to channels 5 and 6, or channel 3 and 6, or channel 7(AIL-DIF) to channels 5 and 7. This allows you to utilize these 2 great functions while utilizing 5-channel receiver.

Caution: Changing AILE-2 only tells the system which servos to utilize if FLAPERON or AIL-DIF is activated. You still must activate that function and complete its setup for details on twin aileron servos, including using AILE-2.

(Only for glider 1A+1F) if the channel 3 is set as the second aileron, the receiver F/S will become invalid.

Adjustable travel limit (ATL)

 Make the channel 3 TRIM LEVER (THROTTLE TRIM) effective only at low throttle, and disabling the trim at high throttle. This prevents pushrod jamming due to idling trim changes. This function defaults to ON. If you are not using channel 3 for throttle, you may want trim operation the same as on all other channels.

To do so, set ATL to OFF. If you need the ATL to be effective at the top of the stick instead of the bottom, reverse the THR-REV setting. Note that this affects all models in the radio, not just the model you are currently editing.

Home screen display

  As shown below, home screen will display plane type and throttle pitch:

ILLUST: displays the illustration of helicopter in the home screen. (Default)

THR/PIT: displays the current throttle and pitch position in the home screen.

Step to change plane type image to THR/PIT: under model type helicopter, enter basic menu, choose MODEL TYPE, and enter HOME DISP, press PUSH, then DIAL to THR/PIT, then press PUSH.

End Point(EPA)

The most flexible version of travel adjustment is available. It independently adjusts each end of each individual servo’s travel, rather than one setting for the servo affecting both directions. Again, for CCPM helicopters, be sure to see SWASH AFR prior to adjusting end points.

Adjustability:

• Can set each direction independently.

• Ranges from 0% (no servo movement at all) to 140%. At a 100% setting, the

Throw of the servo is approximately 40°for channels 1-4 and approximately 55°for channels 5-8.

• Reducing the percentage settings reduces the total servo throw in that direction.

Examples:

• Adjust the throttle high end to avoid binding at the carburetor, and low end to allow for proper carburetor closure.

• END POINT may be adjusted to 0 to keep a servo from moving one direction, such as flaps not intended to also operate as spoilers.

• Retract servos are not proportional. Changing END POINT will not adjust the servo.

END POINT adjusts only the individual servo. It will have no effect on any other servo that is operated in conjunction with this servo via mix or preset programming such as FLAPERON, AILEVATOR, etc. This is so that each individual servo can be carefully fine-turn to avoid binding and other conflicts. To adjust the total travel of a function such as FLAPERON, make the adjustments in that function’s controls. For CCPM helicopters, adjust the total travel of the function, such as collective pitch, in SWASH AFR. Adjust the linkage or the END POINT? It is nearly always best to adjust your linkages to get as close as possible prior to utilizing END POINT. The higher the END POINT setting, the better position accuracy and the more servo power available at nearly any position (except if using digital servos). Higher END POINT values also mean longer travel time to reach the desired position, as you are utilizing more of the servo’s total travel. (For example, using 50% END POINT would give you only half the steps of servo travel, meaning every click of trim has twice the effect and the servo gets there in half the time). End point (and moving the linkage) = torque, accuracy, but transit time to get there.

• END POINT (instead of adjusting linkages) = travel time, but torque, accuracy.

Engine idle management: IDLE-DOWN and THR-CUT: functions which work with the digital THROTTLE TRIM to provide a simple, consistent means of engine operation. No more fussing with getting trim in just the right spot for landings or take offs! For additional engine adjustments, see THROTTLE-NEEDLE and THROTTLE DELAY.

Trim

TRIM submenu: resets and adjust effectiveness of digital trims.

The AT10II has digital trims which are different from conventional mechanical trim sliders. Each TRIM LEVER is actually a two-direction switch. Each time the TRIM LEVER is pressed, the trim is changed a selected amount. When you hold the TRIM LEVER, the trim speed will increase. The current trim position is graphically displayed on the start up screen. The TRIM submenu includes two functions that are used to manage the trim options.

1. Trim reset (RESET): Electronically centers the trims to their default values. Note that the SUB-TRIM settings and the trim STEP rate are not reset by this command.
2. Trim step (STEP): changes the rate at which the trim moves when the TRIM LEVER is activated. It may be set from 1 to 40 units, depending on the characteristics of the MULTIROTOR. Most ordinary MULTIROTOR do well at about 2 to 10 units. Generally larger trim steps are for models with large control throws or for first flights to ensure sufficient trim to properly correct the model. Smaller trim steps are later used to allow very fine adjustments in flight.

HELI models only: OFFSET is available in the idle ups. If OFFSET is inhibited, adjustment of the TRIM LEVERS will adjust the trims for all flight conditions. If OFFSET is active, then moving the trims within any one condition will affect only that condition.

Sub Trim

SUB-TRIM: makes small changes or corrections to the neutral position of each servo. Range is -120 to +120, with 0 setting, the default, being no SUB-TRIM.

We recommend that you center the digital trims before making SUB-TRIM changes, and that you try to keep all of the SUB-TRIM values as small as possible. Otherwise, when the SUB-TRIM is of large values, the servo’s range of travel is restricted on one side.

The recommended procedure is as follows:

• Measure and record the desired surface position;

• Zero out both the trims (TRIM RESET menu) and the SUB-TRIM (this menu);

• Mount servo arms and linkages so that the control surface’s neutral is as correct as possible; and

• use a small amount of SUB-TRIM to make fine corrections.

Servo Reverse(REVERSE)

Changes the direction an individual servo responds to a CONTROL STICK motion.

Since channel 9 and 10 are switch only, its servo REVERSE is in the AUX-CH control screen with its switch assignment. Be sure to read the section on SWASH AFR before reversing any servos.

Except with CCPM helicopters, always complete your servo reversing prior to any other programming. If you use pre-built ACRO/ GLID functions that control multiple servos, such as FLAPERON or V-TAIL, it may be confusing to tell whether the servo needs to be reversed or a setting in the function needs to be reversed. See the instructions for each specialized function for further details.

Always check servo direction prior to every flight as an additional precaution to confirm proper model memory, hook ups, and radio functions.

Servo reversing

Dual/Triple Rates and Exponential (D/R,EXP)

Dual/Triple Rates: reduce/increase the servo travel by flipping a switch, or (ACRO􀀒GLID) they can be engaged by any stick position. Dual rates affect the control listed, such as aileron, not just a single (ex: channel 1) servo. For example, adjusting aileron dual rate will affect both aileron servos when using FLAPERON or AIL-DIF, and both aileron and elevator servos’ travel when using AILEVATOR or ELEVON or a CCPM helicopter.

Activation:

• Any SWITCH, A-H. If you choose a 3-position switch, then that dual rate instantly becomes a triple rate.

• The glider programming offers you the choice of Condition. This option allows you to have a separate rate for each of condition. (GLID)

• Stick position (ACRO GLID). (Ex: On rudder you normally use only the center 3/4 of the stick movement except for extreme maneuvers such as snaps/spins/stalls. As long as your RUDDER STICK does not exceed 90% (ie. stall turn), the rudder goes to high rate’s 90%, which is a MUCH higher amount of travel than your low rate at 89%)

Adjustability:

• Range: 0 — 140% (0 setting would deactivate the control completely.) Initial value=100%

• Adjustable for each direction (ACRO/ GLID)

(i.e. Up/down, left/right) (Ex: Most models fly upright without any elevator trim, but require some down elevator when inverted just to maintain level flight. By increasing the down travel by the amount required to hold the model inverted, the model now has equal travel available from level upright or level inverted.

Only if any stick is chosen by the item of «SW1», a switch can also be chosen by the item of «SW2.» When operated simultaneously, the switch operation has priority over the stick operation. (ACRO)

Exponential:

Change the response curve of the servos relative to the stick position to make fly more pleasant. You can make the servo movement less or more sensitive around neutral for rudder, aileron, elevator, and throttle (except HELI type use THROTTLE CURVE instead). (ACRO type throttle EXP and THROTTLE CURVE can not be activated simultaneously). Many models require a large amount of travel to perform their best tricks.

However, without exponential, they are touchy around neutral, making them unpleasant to fly and making small corrections very difficult. Additionally, by setting different exponentials for each rate, you can make the effectiveness of small corrections similar in each rate, as in our example below:

The best way to understand exponential is to try it:

• Having made no changes yet in the D/R, EXP screen, move SWITCH D to DOWN (toward the AILERON STICK).

• Move SWITCH D up. Hold the AILERON STICK at 1/4 sticks and moves SWITCH D down.

• Notice how much less travel there is.

• Go to 3/4 stick and repeat. Notice how the travel is much closer, if not identical.

Adjustability:

• More sensitive around neutral. (Positive exponential)

• Less sensitive around neutral. (Negative exponential)

• Adjustable for each direction. (ACRO/GLID)

For throttle, exponential is applied at the low end to help nitro and gasoline engines have a linear throttle response, so that each 1/4 stick increases engine RPM 25% of the available range. (In most engines this ranges from 5-60%)

Special note for helicopters: Helicopter model types have just a single rate for each switch position rather than a rate for each side of the servo’s travel per switch position. Additionally, setting the D/R, EXP for each switch position requires cursor back to the No. setting and changing the switch position here. Just flipping the switch does not affect the screen setting, allowing dual rates to be assigned with idle-up and other features on certain switches, and does not require putting the model in that condition to make modifications.

Special note for conditions: The helicopter and glider programming offers you the choice of COND. This option allows you to have a separate rate for each of the 3 controls automatically selected when changing conditions, for a total of FIVE rates available. Simply change the switch choice to COND. and then:

(HELI) press the CURSOR LEVER to toggle through the 5 conditions while setting the rates.

(GLID) activate the corresponding condition to edit the rates.

Throttle Cut

AEROBASIC

Throttle cut (THR-CUT) (ACRO0/HELI): provides an easy way to stop the engine by flipping a switch (with THROTTLE STICK at idle). The movement is largest at idle and disappears at high throttle to avoid accidental dead sticks. In HELI, there is an additional setting.

The switch’s location and direction must be chosen. It defaults to NULL to avoid accidentally assigning it to a switch, which might result in an unintentional dead stick in flight.

*Also LOGIC SW(Lsw1 to 3) may be assigned.

** Normally, a setting of 10-20% is sufficient. Viewing the carburetor barrel until it fully closes is adequate to get an approximate setting; then test with engine running to confirm.

GLIDER

Provides an easy way to stop the engine by flipping a switch no matter where the air brake stick is. The movement of servo will be -30%. Now you must select switch position and direction. Factory setting the position is NULL to avoid an accident setting on a switch to cause glitches during flight.

Adjustability:

• Range: -30% to +30%. Movement of servo is 0%, air brake stick is on its min and -30% on the max.

• SWA-H and logic switch Ls1-3 is selectable

• All position is available for logic switch including NULL (usually MIX OFF), you can set MIX by different position of a switch (UP & CEN, CEN & DN) and also NORM, REV.

HELICOPTER

This function is used to stop engine after flight is finished. You can set engine powered on/ off, without shifting trim stick to power off and set again every time before flight. Throttle shut for helicopter includes THR ON/ OFF (position above idle down). Before resetting throttle cut, throttle stick must keep below setting point to avoid a sudden speeding up.

• Notification: trigger point setting step: under the menu THR CUT, choose THRO by DIAL, and press PUSH and move the throttle stick to trigger point, then press and hold PUSH one second to save. This function only when the throttle stick moves below trigger point.

Idle Down (ACRO only)

Lowers the engine idle for: set for sitting on the runway prior to take off, stalls and spins, and landings. The normal idle setting is a little higher for easier starts and safe flights with less risk of dead sticks.

Important note: The IDLE-DOWN function is not normally used when starting the engine, and its accidental operation may keep your engine from starting. The AT10II warns that IDLE-DOWN is on when the transmitter is turned on. Be sure to turn off the function, or override the warning by pressing CURSOR lever if you intended the function to be on.

This may be assigned to any switch/position. Some modelers accidentally assign IDLE-DOWN to one side of a switch and THR-CUT to the other. There is no «normal» setting to start the engine. By default IDLE-DOWN is get to SWITCH C center and down. This works well with THR-CUT also on SWITCH C down. The SWITCH C up is normal flight/starting, center for slower maneuvers/landing, and down to cut the engine. If you assign IDLE-DOWN or THR-CUT to the spring-loaded TRAINER SWITCH H or F, then use the trainer function, you may risk loss of throttle control or dead stick for your student.

*Normally a value of 10- 20%. Secure the fuselage, engine running. Set the THROTTLE STICK to idle. Adjust the IDLE-DOWN switch ON and OFF until the desired idle is achieved. Be sure to throttle up periodically to allow the engine to “clean out” and idle reliably.

*Also LOGIC SW (Lsw1 to 3) may be assigned.

Fail Safe (F/S)

(loss of clean signal and low receiver battery) submenu (F/S): sets responses in case of loss of signal or low Rx Battery.

Adjustability:

•Each channel may be set independently.

• The NOR (normal) setting holds the servo in its last commanded position.

• The F/S (Failsafe) function moves each servo to a predetermined position.

• NOTE: the setting of the throttle’s F/S also applies to the Battery F/S.

• The F/S is used in certain competitions to spin the MULTIROTOR to the ground prior to flying away and doing potential damage elsewhere. Conversely, may also be used to go to neutral on all servos, hopefully keeping the plane flying as long as possible.

• Competition modelers often maintain the NOR function so that brief interference will not affect their model’s maneuver.

• Set the throttle channel so that the engine idles when there is interference (ACRO). This may give enough time to fly away from and recover from the radio interference and minimize damage if crashed.

• For helicopters, NOR is typically the safest choice.

•We also recommend setting a gasoline engine’s electronic kill switch to the OFF position in the F/S function for safety reasons.

If you specify a F/S setting, the Failsafe data is automatically transmitted once each two minutes. (PCM) When you choose the F/S mode, check that your settings are as desired by turning off the transmitter power switch and verifying that the servos move to the settings that you chose. Be sure to wait at least two minutes after changing the setting and turning on the receiver power before turning off the transmitter to confirm your changes have been transmitted.

Auxiliary Channel Function

(AUX-CH): defines the relationship between the transmitter controls and the receiver output for channels 5-12. Also, the CH9-12 POSI are used to change the CH9-12 servo direction.

Note that the CH9-12 functions are only visible in the AUX-CH screen and modulation mode must be PCM or 2.4G.

Adjustability:

Auxiliary channel: The auxiliary channel switch is used to do some auxiliary functions, such as opening or closing the throwing chamber, opening or closing the control machine that releases smoke, etc. Each auxiliary channel can be customized with any switch, slider or knob to control (The slider knob is usually used in the pan/tilt camera), or multiple channels can be set on the same switch, slider or knob, and the setting effect can be viewed on the’rudder amount display’ interface of the remote control.

Vehicle and ship models generally have 2 basic channels, and airplane models generally have 4 basic channels. All channels except for the basic channels of the remote control are auxiliary channels.

AT10II can not only customize the auxiliary channels, but also customize the 4 basic channels to meet the personalized needs of model friends to a greater extent. The specific setting methods are as follows:

Long press the Mode button for 1 second to enter the basic menu, turn the CURSOR button to select’System Settings’, tap the Push button for 1 second to enter the’System Settings’ menu, then select the’Joystick Mode’ to «—», tap End once Key to return to the basic menu interface, and then use the CURSOR key to select «auxiliary channel» to see the following interface.

Related channels:

GYRO SENSE (ACRO): CH5, 7, or 8

GYRO SENSE (HELI): CH5

GOVERNOR (HELI): CH7, or CH7 and 8

THR-NEEDLE (ACRO􀀒HELI): CH8

Remember that if you assign primary control of a channel to a switch which you later use for other functions (like dual/triple rates or airbrakes), every time you use that other function you will also be moving the auxiliary channel.

Timer submenu (stopwatch functions)

Controls three electronic clocks used to keep track of time remaining in a competition time allowed, flying time on a tank of fuel, amount of time on a battery, etc.

Adjustability:

• Count down timer: starts from the chosen time, displays time remaining. If the time is exceeded, it continues to count below 0.

• Count up timer: starts at 0 and displays the elapsed time up to 99 minutes 59 seconds.

• Count down timer (Stop type): starts from the chosen time, displays time remaining, and stops at 0.

• Model timer: cumulates ON time up to 99 hours 59 minutes each model. Once Model timer function is turned off, the cumulate time will also be reset to «0:00».

• Independent to each model, and automatically updates with model change.

•In either TIMER mode, the timer will beeps During the last twenty seconds, there’s a beep each second, A long tone is emitted when the time selected is reached. (UP/DOWN TIMER)

• To Reset, choose the desired timer with the CURSOR lever (while at the start-up screen), then press and hold DIAL for 1 second.

• Activation by either direction of SWITCH A-H, by THROTTLE STICK (STK-THR) (Using the THROTTLE STICK is convenient if you are keeping track of fuel remaining, or for an electric, how much battery is left), by LOGIC SWITCH Lsw1-Lsw3 or by the power SWITCH (PWR SW).

• Also the reset switch can be assigned (SWITCH A-H or LOGIC SWITCH Lsw1-Lsw3)

Trainer

For training novice pilots with optional trainer cord connecting 2 transmitters. The instructor has several levels of controllability.

Adjustability:

• NORM: When the TRAINER SWITCH is ON, the channel set to this mode can be controlled by the student. The set channel is controlled according to any programming set at the student’s transmitter.

• FUNC: When the TRAINER SWITCH is ON, the channel set to this mode can be controlled by the student, controlled according to any mixing set at the instructor’s transmitter.

• MIX: When the TRAINER SWITCH is ON, the channel set to this mode can be controlled by both the student and the instructor, controlled according to any mixing set at the instructor’s transmitter. And the student’s mixing rate is adjustable. (Default 30%)

[Note] However, it becomes invalid even if it sets up the channel which is not in a student’s transmitter. The channel serves as operation by the instructor’s transmitter automatically.

• OFF: The channel set to this mode cannot be controlled by the student even when the TRAINER SWITCH is ON. The set channel is controlled by the instructor only, even when the TRAINER SWITCH is ON.

• SWITCH: controlled by spring-loaded SWITCH H only. Not assignable.

• Compatibility: The AT10 may be master or student with any Radiolink transmitter compatible with the cord. Simply plug the optional trainer cord (For AT10 series, sold separately) into the trainer connection on each transmitter, and follow the guidelines below.

EXAMPLES:

•When throttle/collective is set to FUNG, 5-channel helicopter practice is possible with a 4-channel transmitter.

• Set up the model in a second transmitter, use NORM mode to quickly and safely check proper operation of all functions, and then allow the student radio to fully fly the model.

• Using NORM mode, set lower throws, different exponentials, even different auxiliary channel settings on the student radio (if it has these features).

• To ease the learning curve, elevator and aileron may be set to the NORM or FUNC mode, with the other channels set to OFF and controlled by the instructor.

 NOTE:

• NEVER turn on the student transmitter power.

•ALWAYS set the student transmitter modulation mode to PPM.

• BE SURE that the student and instructor transmitters have identical trim settings and control motions. Verify by switching back and forth while moving the control sticks.

• FULLY extend the instructor’s antenna. Collapse the student’s antenna. (Except 2.4GHz)

• When the TRAINER function is active, the snap roll function is deactivated. Other functions, such as IDLE-DOWN and THR-CUT, which have been assigned to the same switch, are not deactivated. Always double check your function assignments prior to utilizing the TRAINER function.

•When you select a different model, the TRAINER function is deactivated in the current model for safety reasons.

Logic Switch Selection

The various functions in the AT10II can be selected by switch.

The Logic switch can be assigned to the functions as following: THR-CUT, IDLE DOWN, AUX-CH, TIMER, PROG. MIX, AIRBRAKE, ELEV-FLAP, and AILE-FLAP. The logic switch can activate functions by two switches combination. The 2 types of logic, either AND or OR, can be selected.

Adjustability:

• Three logic switches can be used. (LSW1, LSW2, and LSW3 )

• SW (1): Any SWICH A-H or THRSTKS, SW (2): Any SWICH A-H

• Switch position (POSI)

• Logic mode: AND or OR (MODE)

Servo Display and Cycle Submenu

Displays radio’s output to channels 1-12. 

The servo sub-menu includes two features:

• Real-time bar-graph display to demonstrate exactly what commands the transmitter is sending to the servos. (This can be particularly handy in setting up models with complicated mixing functions, because the results of each stick, lever, knob, switch input and delay circuit may be immediately seen.)

• Servo cycle function to help locate servo problems prior to in-flight failures. (Channels 1-12)

Telemetry

Signal strength and receiver voltage integrated into the radio transmitter. It is displayed as the following configure, also it is in the sub menu RECEIVE.

Receiver voltage is shown as RX,

External voltage is shown as EXTY.

Find telemetry information: under BASIC MENU, select RECEIVE, presses PUSH to enter, you can find the telemetry info, shown as below. RX is receiver voltage, EXT is external voltage. Also temperature and engine speed (EXT, TEMPERATURE, RPM, and GPS all need telemetry sensor).

RSSI is signal strength, NULL is for no signal, and 0 is for max.

Connection of telemetry sensor: sensor of EXT, TEMPERATURE, RPM, GPS can connect one by one with the receiver port DATA.

Linkage as below:

Connect to telemetry module PRM-01

Connect to telemetry module PRM-03(the product in the middle is flight controller Mini Pix from Radiolink)

Acro Advance Menu

Airplane Wing Types (ACRO/GLID)

There are 3 basic wing types in MULTIROTOR models:

• Simple. Model uses one aileron servo (or multiple servos on a Y-harness into a single receiver channel) and has a tail. This is the default setup and requires no specialized wing programming.

• Twin Aileron Servos. Model uses 2 aileron servos and has a tail. See TWIN AILERON SERVOS.

• Tail-less models (flying wing). Model uses 2 wing servos working together to create both roll and pitch control. See ELEVON.

Twin Aileron Servos (with a tail) (ACRO/GLID): Many current generation models use two aileron servos, plugged into two aileron servos, plugged into two separate receiver channels. (If your model is a flying wing without separate elevators, see ELEVON)

ADVANTAGE:

• Ability to adjust each servo’s center and end points for perfectly matched travel.

• Redundancy, for example in case of a servo failure or mid-air collision.

• Ease of assembly and more torque per surface by not requiring torque rods for a single servo to drive 2 surfaces.

• Ease of assembly and more torque per surface by not requiring torque rods for a single servo to drive 2 surfaces.

• Having more up aileron travel than down travel for straighter rolls, aileron differential. (See glossary for definition.)

• Set a negative percentage to reverse the operation of one of the servos.

Options:

• 5-channel receiver. Set up AILE-2 prior to continuing with FLAPERON or AIL-DIFF.

• FLAPERON:

•Uses CH6 for the second servo

• Allows flap action as well as aileron action from the ailerons.

• Provides FLAP-TRIM function to adjust the neutral point of the FLAPERON for level flight.

• Also allows aileron differential in its own programming (instead of activating AIL-DIFF).

• Uses CH7 for the 2nd servo (see AIL-2 use CH5)

• Leaves CH5 & CH6 free for flap operation, such as FLAPERON and flap action together, in AIRBRAKE.

• Allows for more up aileron travel than down for straighter rolls. You will need to choose which of FLAPERON or AIL-DIFF is better for your model’s setup. If you need the ailerons to also operate as flaps, you most likely want to use FLAPRON. If your model has 2 aileron servos and flaps, then AIL-DIFF is probably the easiest choice.

NOTE: Only one of the three wing-type functions (FLAPERON, AIL-DIFF, and ELEVON) can be used at a time. All three functions cannot be activated simultaneously. To activate a different wing type, the first must be deactivated.

Twin Aileron Servos(AILE-2 , ACRO/GLID)

AILE-2 allows FLAPERON and AIL-DIFF with a 5-channel receiver. AILE-2 only tells the radio that you are using CH5 and CH6 (FLAPERON), or CH5 and CH7 (AILDIFF), not CH6 or CH7, as the second servo in FLAPERON or AILE-DIFF. You still must activate and set up the FLAPERON/AILE-DIFF function.

Note that selecting CH6&5 or CH7&5 does NOT free up CH6 or CH7 to be used for other functions when using a receiver with more than 5 channels. Both 5 and 6 (FLAPERON/AILE-DIFF) are dedicated to the FLAPERON or AILE-DIFF programming. [This is beneficial with four aileron servos that need to have their end points or sub-trims set separately. CH1, CH5 and CH6 are already fully set up to operate as ailerons. Mix the CH7 or CH8 (the second aileron servo on the other side) into ailerons to function properly.

There are 4 basic tail types in MULTIROTOR models:

• Simple. Model uses one elevator servo and one rudder servo (or multiple servos on a Y-harness). This is the default.

• Dual Elevator servos. Model uses 2 elevator servos.

• Tail-less models. Model uses 2 wing servos together to create roll and pitch control. See ELEVON (ACRO/ GLID 1A+1F).

• V-TAIL. Model uses 2 surfaces, at an angle, together to create yaw and pitch control. see V-TAIL (ACRO/ GLID).

Note: Only one of the three tail-type functions (AILEVATOR, V-TAIL, and ELEVON) can be used at a time. The radio provides a warming and will not allow the activation of another tail type until the first is deactivated. An error message of OTHER WING MIXING IS ON will display.

Using ELEVON (ACRO/GLID 1A+1F): it is used with delta wings, flying wings, and other tailless MULTIROTOR that combine aileron and elevator functions, using two servos, each one on the ELEVON. The aileron/elevator responses of each servo can be adjusted independently. This is also popular for ground model use, such as tanks, which drive two motors together for forward, and one motor forward/ one backward for turning.

Acro Advance Function Menu

Mixes are special programs within the radio that command one or more channels to act together with input from only one source, such as a stick, slider or knob.

There are a variety of types of mixes:

TYPE:

• Linear: Most mixes are linear. A 100% linear mix tells the slave servo to do exactly what the master servo is doing, using 100% of the slave channel’s range to do so. An example is FLAPERON, when aileron stick is moved, the flap servo is told to move exactly the same amount. A 50% linear mix would tell the slave servo, for example, to move to 50% of its range when the master’s control is moved 100%.

• Offset: An OFFSET mix is a special type of linear mix. When the mix is turned on (usually a flip of a switch), the slave servo is moved a set percent of its range. An example of this is AIRBRAKE, moving flaps, FLAPERON, and elevator all to a set position at the flip of a switch.

• Curve: Curve mixes are mostly used in helicopters, but may also be used in airplanes and gliders. An example is THROTTLE-NEEDLE mixing, where the in-flight needle’s servo is moved, changing the mixture, as the throttle servo is moved.

• Delay: Delay mixes are part of a few very special functions that make the servo move to its desired range more slowly.

THROTTLE DELAY (simulates turbine engines) and the elevator delays in AIRBRAKE are two examples of this. DELAY in HELI is another example that slows the servo movement to the trim settings for the other conditions.

Essentially every feature in the radio’s programming is really a mix, with all assignments/programming set up and ready to use. Additionally, the AT10II ACRO and GLID programs both provide 4 linear and 4 curve fully-programmable mixes ( HELI provides 4 linear and 2 curve) that allow you to set up special mixes to resolve flight difficulties, activate additional functions, etc.

Let’s look quickly at a few examples that are features we’ve already covered. This may help to clarify the mix types and the importance of mixes:

Additional example:

• Exponential is a preprogrammed curve mix that makes the servos’ response more (+) or less (-) sensitive around center stick (works in conjunction with dual rate, a linear mix that adjusts the total range). see D/R,EXP,

• IDLE-DOWN and THR-CUT are two OFFSET pre-programmed mixes. These tell the throttle servo, when below a certain point, to move toward idle an additional set percentage to help close the carburetor.

• ELEV-TO-FLAP mixing is a pre-programmed linear mix to move the flaps proportionally to elevator control, helping the model loop even tighter than it can on elevator alone.

• THROTTLE-NEEDLE mixing is a curve mix (like PROG.MIX 5 to for proper in-flight needle setup.

• THROTTLE DELAY mixing is a pre-programmed delay mix that slows down the response of the CH3 servo.

Next, we’ll get an in-depth look at some pre-programmed mixes (mixes whose channels are predefined for simplicity) we’ve not covered yet, and last, look at the fully-programmable mix types.

Program MIX

AT10II contains four separate linear programmable mixes. (Note that mixer #5-8’s mixing RATE are set with a 5-point curve. HELI has mixer #5-6’s mixing. See CURVE MIXES

There are a variety of reasons you might want to use these mixes. A few are listed here. All of the adjustable parameters are listed below, but don’t let them scare you. For your first few times experimenting with mixes, just turn on the default mixes, adjust them how you think they need to be, then use the servo screen to check and see if you were correct. As with all functions, a sample

setup follows, step by step, to assist you.

Sample reasons to use linear programmable mixes:

• To correct bad tendencies of the MULTIROTOR (such as rolling in response to rudder input).

• To operate 2 or more servos for a single axis (such as two rudder servos).

• To automatically correct for a particular action (such as lowering elevator when flaps are lowered).

• To operate a second channel in response to movement in a first channel (such as increasing the amount of smoke oil in response to more throttle application, but only when the smoke switch is active).

• To turn off response of a primary control in certain circumstances (such as simulating one engine flaming -out on a twin, or throttle-assisted rudder turns, also with a twin).

Adjustability:

• Defaults: The 4 programmable mixes default to the most frequently used mixes for simplicity. If you want to use one of these mixes, simply select that mix number so that the master and slave servos are already selected for you.

• PROG.MIX1 aileron-to-rudder for coordinated turns

• PROG.MIX2 elevator-to-flap for tighter loops (HELI mixes default to ELEV-to-pitch.)

• PROG.MIX3 flap-to-elevator to compensate pitching with flaps (HELI mixes default to pitch-to-ELEV)

• PROG.MIX4 throttle-to-rudder ground handling compensation

•Channels available to mix: All four mixes may use any combination of CH1-8. (CH9-10 is not proportional and cannot be mixed.) Offset and dials may also be set to the master channels.

•Master: the controlling channel, the channel whose movement is followed by the slave channel.

•Another channel: Most mixes follow a control channel. (Ex: rudder-to-ailerons, 25%, no switch, corrects roll coupling.)

•Offset as master: To create an OFFSET mix, set the master as OFST. (Ex: Move FLAPERON as flaps 20% of their total throw when SWITCH C is in down position.)

• Dial as master: To directly effect one servo’s position by moving a dial, set the master as the desired dial. (Ex: create a second throttle trim on left slider.)

•Slave: the controlled channel. The channel is moved automatically in response to the movement of the master channel. The second channel is in a mix’s name (i.e. aileron-to-rudder).

•Link: Link this programmable mix with other mixes.

Ex: PMIX FLAP-ELEVATOR mixing to correct for ballooning when flaps are lowered, but model has a V-tail. Without LINK, this mix only moves CH2 elevator when flap is commanded, resulting in a dangerous combination of yaw and roll. With LINK ON, mixing is applied to both CH2 and CH4.

•Trim: Master’s trim affects slave. Not displayed if master is not CH 1-4, because 5-9 have no trim. Ex: two rudder servos. With TRIM OFF, rudder trim would bind the two servos. TRIM ON resolves this.

• On/off choices:

• SWITCH: Any of the positions of any of the 8 switches may be used to activate a mix. Up&Cntr, Cntr&Dn options allow the mix to be ON in 2 of the 3 positions of a 3-position SWITCH.

• NULL: No SWITCH can turn this mix OFF. This mix is active at all times.

• LOGIC SW (Lsw1 to 3) may be assigned.

• STK-THR: Turn on/off by THROTTLE STICK movement. Trigger point/direction are selectable. Ex: OFST-to-(gear doors) mix to open gear doors at idle, which is only active if throttle is below half.

• Rate: the percentage of the slave’s range it will move upon maximum input from the master channel. Ex: RUDDERAILERON mix, 50%. Ail range=1». When rudder is moved full right, ailerons move 1/2».

• Offset: Offsets the slave’s center is relative to the master. Ex: Smoke valve opens wider per throttle servo position when smoke SWITCH is ON. Smoke servo’s neutral is moved down from THROTTLE STICK center to the bottom.

Other samples:

• RUD-ELEV (ACRO􀀒GLID) mix: Compensate for pitching up or down when rudder is applied.

• AIL-RUD mix (ACRO): Coordinate turns by applying rudder automatically with aileron input. All model types.

• ELEV-PIT (HELI) mix: Compensate for the loss of lift of tilting the model

Curve Programmable Mixes

AT10’s ACRO/GLID programs contain four separate curve programmable mixes. HELI contains two. There are a variety of reasons you might want curve mixes. Usually a linear mix doesn’t fit your needs along the whole range. One pre-programmed curve mix is the THROTTLE-NEEDLE function. This curve is adjustable at 5 points, allowing you to adjust the motor’s tuning at 5 points along its RPM range.

One programmable curve mix defaults to RUDDER-AILERON. A linear mix that keeps the model from rolling in knife-edge is probably too much aileron when rudder is applied in level flight. Create a curve mix and set all 5 points to match the linear mix. Inhibit the linear mix, and then adjust the curve to get the right response all along the rudder channel’s travel.

ADJUSTABILITY:

• ACRO/GLID Defaults: The 4 programmable curves mixes default to the most frequent choices, but can be set to any channel.

• PROG.MIX5 rudder-to-aileron for roll coupling compensation (GLID mixes default to aileron-to-ELEV.)

• PROG.MIX6 rudder-to-aileron for roll coupling compensation (GLID mixes default to aileron-to-ELEV.)

• PROG.MIX7 rudder-to-elevator for pitch coupling compensation (GLID mixes default to elevator-to-airbrake.)

• PROG.MIX8 rudder-to-elevator for pitch coupling compensation (GLID mixes default to elevator-to-airbrake.)

• HELI Defaults:

• PROG.MIX5 aileron-to-elevator for coordinated turns

• PROG.MIX6 aileron-to-elevator for coordinated turns

• Master: The controlling channel can only be a channel. Cannot OFFSET or dial.

• Trim: not available in curve mixes.

• Offset: not available in curve mixes.

Flaperon (ACRO/GLID 1A+1F )

The FLAPERON mixing function uses one servo on each of the two ailerons, and uses them for both aileron and flap function. For flap effect, the ailerons raise/lower simultaneously. Of course, aileron function (moving in opposite directions) is also performed.

Note: When changing the polarity of a rate, «change rate dir?» is displayed for a check. Please set up after pressing DIAL for 1 second and canceling an alarm display. (GLID only)

Once FLAPERON is activated, any time you program CH6 or «flap» (i.e. ELEVATOR mixing), the radio commands both servos to operate as flaps. The amount of travel available as flaps is independently adjustable in FLAPERON. A trimming feature is also available (see FLAP-TRIM) to adjust both neutral positions together for straight-and-level flight or slight increases/decreases of the flap angle. END POINT and SUB-TRIM both still adjust each servo individually.

Adjustability:

• Each aileron servo up travel can be set separate from its down travel, creating aileron differential. (See example).

• Each aileron servo’s travel when actuated as a flap is separately adjustable.

• AILE-2 can be utilized to use a 5-channel receiver and still have FLAPERON. NOTE: The AILE-2 function only commands the channel 5 servo to operate with the aileron servo as ailerons, and to obey the primary flap control (travel adjusted in FLAP-TRIM.) It does not provide full flap mix capability as when using a 6+ channel receiver and channel 6.

• The separate FLAPERON settings for each condition can be set. (GLID)

 Note: Activating FLAPERON only makes the ailerons work as ailerons and tells the radio how far you want them to move as flaps. If you then activate other programming that moves them as flaps.

FLAP-TRIM is the flap-trimming feature that allows the flaps to move in reaction to the channel 6 control. It is meant only for trimming the flaps’ center but can also be used as full flap control.

ELEVATOR-FLAP would add elevator mixing into the flap movement from the flap dial after FLAP-TRIM is activated.

* If you receive an error message that OTHER WING MIXING IS ON, you must deactivate AIL-DIFF or ELEVON.

Flap-Trim

Using FLAP-TRIM to adjust FLAPERON (ACRO/GLID)

FLAP-TRIM assigns the primary FLAPERON control [defaults to VR(A)] to allow trimming in flight of the flap action of FLAPERON.

Note: Even if FLAP-TRIM is made active with AIL-DIFF, it will not have any effect. The ONLY function that allows control of the ailerons as flaps in the AIL-DIFF configuration is AIRBRAKE. Most modelers use AIRBRAKE, or programmable mixes, to move the flaps to a specified position via movement of a switch.

FLAP-TRIM may also be used as the primary flap control in flight. By doing so, you can assign CH6 to a 3-position switch, with a «SPOILERON», neutral, and «FLAPERON» position, and even adjust the percentage traveled as FLAPERON/SPOILERON by changing the Flap Trim travel.

Aile Diff (ACRO/ GLID 2A+1F/ GLID 2A+2F)

ACRO

GLID (2A+1F)/GLID (2A+2F)

Aileron differential is primarily used on 3 or 4-servo wings, with one servo operating inboard flap on CH6 or CH5 & CH6, and AILE-DIFF controlling proper aileron operation of 2 aileron servos, plugged into CH1 and CH7. The ailerons can not be moved like flaps when using AILE-DIFF, except if using AIRBRAKE. (Note that even if you make FLAP-TRIM active while using AILE-DIFF, it will not have any effect. ONLY AIRBRAKE controls the ailerons as flaps in the AILE-DIFF configuration.)

 Note: When changing the polarity of a rate in camber-flap, «change rate dir?» is displayed for a check. Please set up after pressing DIAL for 1 second and canceling an alarm display. (GLID only)

• FLAP function allows you to set up 1 or 2 servos for flap action.

• The separate AILE-DIFF settings for each condition can be set. (GLID only)

*If you receive an error message that OTHER WING MIXING IS ON, you must deactivate ELEVON or FLAPERON.

Air Break (ACRO/ GLID)

ACRO

GLID

Like FLAPERON and AILEVATOR, AIRBRAKE is one function that is really made up of a series of pre-programmed mixes all done for you within the radio. AIRBRAKE (often called «crow» or BUTTERFLY — see GLID, p. 62 for details) simultaneously moves the flap (if installed), twin ailerons (if installed) and elevator, and is usually used to make steep descents or to limit increases in airspeed in dives.

This function is often used even on models without flaps as an easy way to use the FLAPERON and FLAP-ELEVATOR mixing together.

ADJUSTABILITY:

• Activation: be proportional by moving the THROTTLE STICK, or set positions by flipping the assigned switch.

• Switch: Mix SWITCH is selectable.

• Also LOGIC SW (Lsw1 to 3) may be assigned.

• Linear(Inversely proportional to THROTTLE STICK): Provides a proportional increase in amount of AIRBRAKE action as THROTTLE STICK is lowered and assigned switch is on. It provides gradually more AIRBRAKE as you slow the engine. Includes selectable stick position where AIRBRAKE begins, gradually increasing to the same setting as the THROTTLE STICK is lowered. If you would like to have the airbrake be directly proportional to throttle stick, you will

need to reverse the THR-REV function. Note that this changes the throttle stick direction for all models.

• Offset: Provide AIRBRAKE response immediately upon switch movement, going to a pre-set travel on each active channel without any means of in-flight adjustment.

• During Airbrake operation, the elevator travel is displayed on the elevator trim display in the Startup screen.

•Delayed reaction: You can suppress sudden changes in your model’s attitude when AIRBRAKE BUTTERFLY is activated by setting the delay (delay-ELEV) item, to slow down the elevator response, allowing the flaps/ailerons/elevator to all reach their desired end point together. A setting of 100% slows the servo to take approximately one second to travel the prescribed distance. (GLID: B.FLY-ELEV function)

• Adjustable in flight (ACRO): Using the aileron (when AILE-DIFF or FLAPERON is activated) and elevator trim lever in flight can be set to adjust the aileron and elevator settings in your airbrake rather than adjusting the model’s actual aileron and elevator trim. This allows easy adjustment for any ballooning while in flight. When the airbrake switch is moved to off the trim is again adjusting the normal elevator trim.

• Channels controlled: Elevator, twin ailerons and flap may be set independently in AIRBRAKE, including set to 0 to have no effect.

• If FLAPERON is active, the travel of the ailerons can be independently adjusted for the servos plugged into CH1 and CH6. The flap choice has no effect on the FLAPERON.

• If AIL-DIFF is active, then CH1 and CH7 may be independently adjusted.

• Normally both ailerons are raised equally in AIRBRAKE, and the elevator motion is set to maintain trim when the ailerons rise. Different amounts may be set for each aileron to correct for torque reactions and other unique characteristics of the model.

 Be sure you understand what dropping ailerons will do when in AIRBRAKE BUTTERFLY. Along with creating an enormous amount of drag (desirable for spot landings), this also creates «wash-in», a higher angle of attack where the ailerons are, and encourages tip stalling.

If you are using this for aerobatic performance and not «sudden stops», consider raising the ailerons and dropping the flaps instead as shown in the diagram above.

Elev-Flap Mixing (ACRO/GLID)

ACRO

GLID

ELEV-FLAP mixing is the first pre-programmed mix we’ll cover. This mix makes the flaps drop or rise whenever ELEVATOR STICK is moved. It is most commonly used to make tighter pylon turns or squarer corners in maneuvers. In most cases, the flaps droop (are lowered) when up elevator is commanded.

Adjustability:

• Rate: -100% (full up flap) to +100% (full down flap), with a default of +50% (one-half of the flap range is achieved when the ELEVATOR STICK is pulled to provide full up elevator.)

• Switch: Fully assignable. Also LOGIC SW (Lsw1 to 3) may be assigned. IF you set it to NULL, the mix does not work. (ACRO)

•Range (GLID): The range that mixing does not work near neutral of an elevator stick can be set up. Hold the stick to the desired point (upper or lower side) , then press DIAL and hold one second to set the range.

• Condition (GLID): The separate ELEV-FLAP settings for each condition can be set.

Dual Elevator Servos

Many models use two elevator servos, plugged in separate receiver channels. (Flying wings without a separate aileron control use ELEVON. V-shaped tail models use V-TAIL,

ADVANTAGE:

•Ability to adjust each servo’s center and end points for perfectly matched travel.

• Ease of assembly, not requiring torque rods for a single servo to drive 2 surfaces.

• Elevators acting also as ailerons for extreme stunt flying or more realistic jet flying (optional).

• Redundancy, for example in case of a servo failure or mid-air collision.

ADJUSTABILITY:

• CH2 and CH8 only. (With programmable mixing, could utilize CH5 as the 2nd elevator servo.

THROTTLE-NEEDLE uses CH8 and cannot be active simultaneously).

• Direction of each servo’s travel may be reversed in REVERSE or the set percentages may be reversed here.

• Elevator travels independently adjustable (both directions and percent).

•Optional action as ailerons (defaults to 50% response). This response cannot be activated/ deactivated in flight. Setting AIL1 and 2 to 0 disables this feature.

 Note: if you want this, but on/off with a switch, set AIL1 and 2 to 0 here, and use 2 mixes. AIL-to-AUX2 (link/trim off, assign a switch), get aileron action from the elevator servos when the assigned switch is on.

The AILEVATOR mixing function uses one servo on each of the two elevators, and combines the elevator function with the aileron function (unless aileron travel is set to 0). For aileron effect, the elevators are raised and lowered opposite of one another in conjunction with the ailerons.’

Once AILEVATOR is activated, unless you zero out the aileron figures (see below), any time you move your ailerons or any programming moves your ailerons (i.e. RUDDER-AILERON mixing), the radio automatically commands both elevator servos to also operate as ailerons. To deactivate this action, simply set the 2 aileron travel settings to 0 in the AILEVATOR function. This way the elevators will work only as elevators.

Snap Rolls (ACRO)

This function allows you to execute snap rolls by flipping a switch, providing the same input every time. It also removes the need to change dual rates on the 3 channels prior to performing a snap, as SNAP-ROLL always takes the servos to the same position, regardless of dual rates, inputs held during the snap, etc.

 Note: Every MULTIROTOR snaps differently due to its C.G., control throws, moments, etc. Some models snap without aileron; others snap on elevator alone. Most models snap most precisely with a combination of all 3 surfaces. Additionally, rate of speed and acceleration when using the snap switch will affect how the model snaps. For information using gyros with airplanes for cleaner precision maneuvers, such as snaps and spins without over rotation.

ADJUSTABILITY:

• Travel: Adjust the amount of elevator, aileron and rudder travel automatically applied.

• Range: -120 to +120 on all 3 channels. Default is 100% of range of all 3 channels.

• Directions: Up to 4 separate snaps is fully adjustable regarding travels and direction on each of the 3 channels.

Note: for simplicity, the radio refers to snaps that use “UP” or positive elevator as “U” or “UP” snaps. This is more commonly referred to as a positive or inside snap. “D” or “DOWN” snaps are more commonly referred to as negative or outside snaps.

• R/U = Right positive R/D = Right negative L/U = Left positive L/D = Left negative snap roll.

• Assignment of the 2 switches (DIR-SW1/2) to change snap directions is fully adjustable and optional. If you wish to have only one snap, leave the switches as NULL. (If assigned, SW1=up/down, SW2=left/right)

• Safety Switch (SAFE-MOD): a safety may be set up on your landing gear SWITCH, preventing accidental snap rolls while the landing gear is down. The safety switch is turned on and off with the landing gear SWITCH.

• ON: the safety mechanism is activated when the landing gear SWITCH is in the same position as at the time this feature is changed to ON. Snap rolls will not be commanded even if the snap roll SWITCH is turned on with the gear SWITCH in this position. When the landing gear SWITCH is moved to the opposite position, snap rolls may be commanded.

• OFF: Activate the safety mechanism in the opposite position from the ON function.

• FREE: The safety mechanism is completely turned off. Snaps can be commanded regardless of the gear SWITCH POSITION.

  Note: The location of the safety switch always follows channel 5. If channel 5 is reassigned to switch C, for example, switch C is now the safety. If channel 5 is null or used as the second aileron servo, the safety function will not be available.

• Trainer Safety: SNAP-ROLL is automatically disabled when the trainer function is activated.

V-Tail(ACRO/GLID)

V-TAIL mixing is used with v-tail MULTIROTOR so that both elevator and rudder functions are combined for the two tail surfaces. Both elevator and rudder travel can be adjusted independently on each surface.

 Note: NOTE: If V-TAIL is active, you cannot activate ELEVON or AILEVATOR functions. If one of these functions is active, an error message will be displayed and you must deactivate the last function prior to activating ELEVON.

 Note: Be sure to move the elevator and rudder sticks regularly while checking the servo motions. If a large value of travel is specified, when the sticks are moved at the same time, the controls may bind or run out of travel. Decrease the travel until no binding occurs.

Adjustability:

• Requires use of CH2 and CH4.

• Independently adjustable travels allow for differences in servo travels.

• Rudder differential is not available. (To create rudder differential, set RUD1 and 2 to 0, then use two programmable mixes, RUD-ELE and RUD-RUD, setting different percents for up and down. These are your new rudder travels. Trim and link off, switch assignment null so you can’t accidentally turn off rudder.

Elevon

ADJUSTABILITY:

• Requires use of CH1 and CH2.

• Independently adjustable aileron travel allows aileron differential.

• Independently adjustable elevator travel allows for differences in up vs. down travel.

• The separate ELEVON settings for each condition can be set. (GLID only)

 Note: When changing the polarity of a rate, «change rate dir?» is displayed for a check. Please set up after pressing DIAL for 1 second and canceling an alarm display. (GLID only)

 Note: Be sure to move the elevator and aileron sticks to full deflection during setup. If large travels are specified, when the AILERON and ELEVATOR STICKS are moved at the same time the controls may bind or run out of travel.

Gyro Sense

The gyros have two operations modes: GY mode and STD mode.

•STD mode: This mode performs general proportional control operation. For instance, it controls the gyro so that changes are countered when the attitude of the MULTIROTOR is changed by cross-wind, etc.

•GY mode: This mode performs both proportional and integrated control operation. The difference between Normal mode and GY mode operation is that where as the Normal mode only counters changes in attitude, the GY mode returns to the original controlled variable simultaneously with countering changes in attitude. For example, during knife edge flying, aileron and elevator meeting rudder is normally necessary, but in the GY mode, meeting rudder is performed automatically by the gyro.

Adjustability:

• Plug the gyro’s sensitivity adjustment to channel 5, 7, or 8 of the receiver. (Selectable)

• Full switch assignable (SWITCH A-H)

• Each rate setting may be set from 0 to NOR100% or AVC100% gain. NOR: GY mode gain. AVC: STD mode gain

• Larger percentages indicate more gain, or gyro responsiveness.

• MIX-1,2: Two surfaces’ sensitivity can be adjusted independently.

GYRO GAIN ADJUSTABILITY:

• When the servo hunts, the gyro gain is too high. Lower the gain until the hunting stops.

• The gyro will display best performance at a gain just before hunting occurs. Perform adjusting by flying the MULTIROTOR repeatedly.

 Precaution:

• When taking off and landing, always switch to the Normal mode. Taking off and landing in the GY mode is dangerous.

•We recommend that you use the rudder control gyro in the Normal mode. In the GY mode, rudder operation is necessary when turning because the weather vane effect is lost. Use the gyro in the Normal mode unless you are an expert in rudder operation.

• And we recommend that you also set to off (0%) mode for safety as follows.

Thr-Delay(ACRO)

The THR-DELAY function is used to slow the response of the throttle servo to simulate the slow response of a turbine engine. A 40% delay setting corresponds to about a one-second delay, while a 100% delay takes about eight seconds to respond. This function may also be used to create a “slowed servo” on a channel other than throttle. This is accomplished by plugging the desired servo (Ex: gear doors) into CH3 (THR), throttle into an auxiliary channel such as 8, and then using some creative mixes.

Thr Curve(ACRO)

This function adjusts the throttle operation curve for optimum the engine speed to throttle stick movement.

 Note: If the throttle EXP function is activated, you can not use THR-CURVE function simultaneously.

Adjustability:

• Separate curves for each switch position are available.

• Moving and deleting the curve point: The curve point (-STK-) can be moved to the left or right by turning the DIAL (up to 2% in front of the adjoining point) and deleted/returned by pressing the DIAL for one second alternately.

Throttle-Needle Mixing (ACRO/ HELI)

ACRO

HELI

THROTTLE-NEEDLE is a pre-programmed mix that automatically moves an in-flight mixture servo (CH8) in response to the THROTTLE STICK inputs for perfect engine turning at all throttle settings. This function is particularly popular with contest pilots who fly in a large variety of locations, needing regular engine tuning adjustments, and requiring perfect engine response at all times and in all maneuvers. Also popular to minimize flooding at idle of inverted engine installations or installations with a high tank position. Not needed for fuel injection engines, which do this automatically.

ADJUSTABILITY:

• Five-point curve allows adjustment of engine mixture at varied throttle settings.

• The in-flight mixture servo must connect to receiver CH8.

• In-flight mixture servo may also be used as a second servo for tuning a twin.

• Throttle cut feature also moves the in flight needle servo.

• The CH8 knob adjusts the high throttle mixture (may be deactivated. see AUX-CH).

• Because both use CH8, this function cannot be used simultaneously with AILEVATOR.

• An acceleration (ACCE) function (ACRO only) helps the engine compensate for sudden, large amounts of throttle input by making the mixture suddenly richer, then easing it back to the proper adjustment for that throttle setting. This function requires some adjustment to best fit your engine and your flying style. Adjust engine’s response until no hesitation occurs on rapid throttle input.

• Separate curves are available (HELI only) for normal, idle-ups 1 and 2 combined, and idle-up 3. Immediately below MIX the radio displays the curve you are editing; ex: >NORML; and then which condition is currently active by your switches ex: (ID1/2). Note that you can edit the mix for a different condition without being in that condition, to allow editing without having to shut off the helicopter’s engine every time. Be sure you are editing the proper curve by checking the name after the > and not the one in parentheses.

Glider Model Functions

Please note that nearly all of the BASIC menu functions are the same for airplane (ACRO setup), sailplane (GLID 1A+1F/ 2A+1F/ 2A+2F setups), and helicopter (HELI setups). The features that are identical refer back to the ACRO chapter. The glider BASIC menu includes MOTOR CUT and does not include IDLE-DOWN or THR-CUT.

→Note: in all cases where ACRO programming labels channel 3 as throttle, GLID programming labels channel 3 as ARB (airbrake), since airbrakes are normally operated on channel 3 in gliders. This includes STK-THR reading STK-ARB.
