Introduction
Service Centre
Thank you very much for purchasing the Graupner mc-28 HoTT.
The transmitter manual is composed by two parts. Part 1, the short manual, is included in the packaging. Part 2, the programming man­ual, can be found in its last version on www.graupner.de by the related page of the transmitter.
Read this manual carefully to achieve the best results with your transmitter and first of all to safely control your models. If you expe­rience any trouble during operation, take the instructions to help or ask your dealer or Graupner Service Centre.
Due to technical changes, the information may be changed in this manual without prior notice. Keep updated by regularly checking our own website,
www.graupner.de to be always updated with

Use and menu functions
Short-Cuts
The following key combinations can be used to directly call up cer­tain menus and options:
 CLEAR
Brief simultaneous touch of the
keys or on the right touch pad will restore the active entry fi eld's changed parameter value back to its default value.
 "Servo screen"
Brief simultaneous activation of the
keys of the left touch pad will cause a jump from the transmitter's base screen or from almost any menu position to the "Servo" menu.
 "Telemetry" menu
Press the center ESC key in the left touch pad for about 1 s to call up the "Telemetry" menu from the transmitter's base screen.
To come back to the base screen it is enough a "normal" touch on the ESC key.
 Graphic display of telemetry data
Briefly touching one of the selection keys
of the left or right touch pad will cause a jump from the base screen directly to the transmit­ter's graphic display of telemetry data or will allow paging back and forth between individual graphic displays.
Briefly touching the ESC or SET key will cause a return back to the base screen.
 "HIDDEN MODE"
Press and hold arrow keys
of the left touch pad then momentarily
touch the SET key of the right touch pad.
 Key lock
Entry lockout is activated and deactivated from the base screen by simultaneously pressing the ESC and SET keys for about two seconds. The key lock function is displayed by a key symbol:
The controls remain operational.
Press the ESC and ENT buttons at the same time again for about two second to release the lock.

Definition of terms
Control function
A control function is understood as the signal for a specific control function. The signal of a control function can be transmitted directly into one control channel or through a mixer to several control chan­nels. The control function includes the influence of the mechanical control path on the corresponding servo. This can be spread or con­centrated and modified from linear to highly exponential.
Controls
As "control" are meant the function elements that the pilot can actu­ate directly in the transmitter. Through the controls the connected servos, ESC etc. will be controlled by the receiver.
Control channel
If a signal contains all control information necessary for a particular servo, whether directly from the control or indirectly via a mixer, then the term control channel is used.
Mixer
The transmitter software contains a variety of mixing functions. These allow a control function to influence several control channels and several servos. It is also possible to let several control function influence control channel (one servo).
Switch
The series of toggle switches can be included in the control program­ming. The switches are however generally also intended to switch program options such as to start and stop the timers, turn mixers on and off, as trainer switches etc. Each of the switches can be assigned any number of functions.
Control switch
In these software switches, labelled with "G1 ... G8", the switching point within the control travel can be set by simply pushing a button.
Logical switch
Through this option two switches, controls and logical switches or the favorite combination of them, can be interconnected in an "AND" or "OR" switch. A total amount of 8 logical switches "L1 … L8" can be programmed.
Fix switch FXI and FX
This kind of switch switches a function always on or off. You can also assign to a control function a fix input signal, e.g. FX = +100 % and FXi = -100 %.

Note
This menu line is only visible until no receiver is bound to the active model memory.
This option must be selected before the binding of a receiver. You can select between "Global" and "Model", which means:
"Global": All bound receivers react to the signals of each model memory of the transmitter. For safety reasons it is then only possible to change model memory only after having switched the receiver off.
"Model": Bound receivers react only to the signals of the assigned model memory. An accidental use thorough a non specifically assigned model memory is not possible.

If the binding process was not successful, verify the following condi­tions:
 Is the distance between transmitter and receiver at least 50 cm?
 Is the power source of the receiver OK?
 Is the polarity of the power supply correct?
 Was the binding button correctly pushed?
If you want to bind a second receiver, then proceed as described before. Move therefore first to the right "n/v" field.

In this menu line the RF module of the transmitter is switched man­ually on and off. This line is only available if a receiver is bound.
The integrated range test reduces the transmitter output so that you can perform a function test at a limited distance.
Perform the range test before each operation and simulate all servo movements which are part of the operation. In order to guarantee a safe model operation, the range must always be at least 50 m on the ground.
Place the model on a flat surface (cement, mowed lawn or ground) so that the receiver antennas are at least 15 cm above the ground. If necessary, place a support underneath the model during the test.
Hold the transmitter at hip level at a slight distance from your body. Keep the surface of the patch antenna of the transmitter in direction of the model.
Start the range test by pushing the SET button. The time display "99 sec" will start the countdown. You will hear two acoustic signals each two seconds, in the last five seconds the acoustic signals will be 3 each second.
During this time, move away from the model, and also move the transmitter's control sticks. Let the control movements be observed by a second person.
If within a distance of about 50 m there is no interference in the con­trol movements of the model, then the range test can be considered as successful. After the end of the 99 seconds
the transmitter switches again to full transmission power and the green LED on the right of the main switch lights again permanently.
If the range test has not been successful, verify the following condi­tions:

The elevator and rudder are controlled each by only one servo.
"V tail"
The elevator and rudder are controlled by two separately-articulated rudders arranged in a V-shape. The coupling function for the rudder and elevator control is automatically transferred from the program. The influence of the rudder on the elevator component can be set in the "Dual Rate / Expo" menu. The servo travels can be adjusted one to the other in the "Servo setting" menu. If the rudder travel has to be differentiated, then you have to select here the tail type "nor­mal" and the V tail has to be set alternatively in the "Cross mixer" menu.
"Delta"
This option must be selected for delta wing models. In case of selec­tion of "2 AILE" in the line "Ailerons/Flaps", see following, the aileron and elevator control is actuated respectively by one servo each half­wing. In case of selection of "2/4AILE 2/4FLAP" the aileron and ele­vator control depends on the settings in the "Multi-flap menu" sub­menu of the "Wing mix" menu.
"2 ELE Sv 3+8"
This option is indicated for models with two elevator servos. When the elevator control is actuated, the servo connected to the output 8 works in parallel with servo 3. The elevator trim acts on both ser­vos.
Note
In case of "2ELE Sv 3+8", for safety reasons, there is no selection pos­sibility for the input 8 in the "Control setting" menu. An already pro­grammed control would be useless.

This menu allows you to change the control characteristics of the control function 1. The control function acts directly on the servo connected to control channel 1 or via several mixers to several ser­vos. Settings in this menu affect the throttle / brake control function for an airplane model and the throttle / pitch function for a helicop­ter model.
If the function has to be assigned specifically to the phase, the related phase must be active. In the last line of the display will be shown the phase name.

The control curve is defined by up to 6 points (points of intersection) along the entire control stick path. The graphical representation shows how the support points are set and adjusted.
In the first line, the effect of the curve function is switched "on" or "off".
The "Input" and "Output" lines are only displays. The values indicate the current position of the control stick "Input" and the position of the control signal (output).
In the line "Point", the changeable points are set on the curve line. The number (1 - 4) or the letter (L = low or H = high) after "Point" indicates which point is currently selected. The percentage of the current point is displayed in the field nearby.

Near the standard timer there are other timers available in the main display of the transmitter. These timers can be set up in the "Phase timer" menu. The phase timers "Timer 1 ... 3" so as the "Time1" and "Time2" are active only in the phase assigned in this menu. In other phases they will be hold and not displayed. The assigned start/stop switch has no function. The lap timer still works even in case of phase change once activated. The lap timer can be stopped in each phase through the central ESC button.

With the "Lap" timer you can measure the lap time through a switch.
33028_mc_28_Teil2_jh
Time1
Only the times whose switch or control switch, assigned in the line "Lap time/Time tab." of the "Phase timer" menu, is "closed" are measured. The frequency of the switch actuation is displayed in the basic display. This counter will be highlighted as soon as the switch for the "Time1" timer is "open", the timer is hold (stopped).
In the stopped state, the recorded switching times can be succes­sively read out with the selection keys.
Time2
"Time2" stores both the "Off" and "On" times of the associated switch. Each time the switch is operated, the counting of the time starts again and the counter is incremented by "1". The timer can be stopped at any time via the central ESC key on the left touch panel without actuating the switch. Actuating the switch while the stopped timer is stopped increases the counter by 1 and restarts the "Time2" timer.
In the stopped state, the recorded data of the "Time2" timer can be successively read out with the selection keys.

Use example
Default: "Stopwatch" and "Log timer" should be started simultane­ously via the CH1 stick (throttle stick) as soon as a defined switching point is exceeded.
Solution: For this purpose, a "G1" switch is first defined in the "Con­trol switch" menu.
Change in the "Control switch" menu. In line G1, press the SET but­ton and then move your throttle stick to the desired switch point position.
Select the column STO, tap on the SET button and the position will be stored.
The control switch "G1" is then assigned in teh "Timer" (general) menu. To do this, in the "Log-timer" and "Stop" lines on the far right of the "

Wing Mix
What is a mixer?
Each model memory has eight freely programmable linear mixers, four freely programmable curve mixers and four cross-mixers. These mixers basically allow a control signal from one control to be mixed with another channel. Depending on the type of mixer, this can be adjusted linearly, in the form of a curve or crosswise.
In addition, there are pre-programmed mixers in the "Wing mix" menu.

The mixers appear in this menu depending on the setting in the "Model type" menu. The individual options of the "Wing mix" menu are described separately according to 1-, 2- and multi-flap models.
Principle differentiation of ailerons and flaps
Aile.diff. /Diff.
The aileron differentiation is used to compensate for the negative winding torque occurring with the aileron extension. In this case, the path of the aileron, which moves downwards, is correspondingly reduced. The aileron differentiation should always be used with all gliders, but it also fulfills its purpose, depending on the airfoil profile, in motor models. The adjustment range of ±100% allows you to adjust different deflection on the right side independent of the direc­tion of rotation of the aileron servos. 0% corresponds to normal deflection (no differentiation), and -100% or +100% corresponds to the split function.
Diff.
In the top line "AILE" of the multi-flap menu described later, you can set from which percentage of the flaps the ailerons have to be affected from the aileron control stick. The two-line underneath, in the line "Diff." adjusting the flap differentiation causes analogously to the aileron differentiation, so that the respective way downwards can be reduced with the aileron deflection of the flaps. The adjust­ment range of ±100% allows a correct adjustment of the differenti­ation independent of the direction of rotation of the servos. A value of 0% corresponds to the normal turning, the servo travel down­wards is equal to the servo travel upwards. -100% or +100% means that the path downwards is reduced to zero ("split" operation) in the aileron control of the flaps.

The "Brake settings" menu is not shown if in the "Model type" menu "Motor on CH1 front / rear" and in the column "Motor" of the "Phase setting" menu for the currently active phase it has been entered "yes". With one aileron servo in the model neither Butterfly nor a differentiation reduction can be realized, there are no further setting options here besides the "Travel" in the submenu "Elevator curve".
For detailed information on how to set a curve mixer, see the "Throt­tle curve" menu item.
Aile -> Dir
The rudder also moves to an adjustable degree when the aileron is actuated. This can compensate for the negative torque in conjunc­tion with aileron differentiation which smoothes flight in curves. The
rudder remains separately controllable. The setting range of ±150 %
makes it possible to appropriately adapt the direction of deflection. This mixer can optionally be turned on and off by one of the posi­tioning switches or controls so that the model can be controlled exclusively using the aileron or rudder.

The "Brake settings" menu is not shown if in the "Model type" menu "Motor on CH1 front / rear" and in the column "Motor" of the "Phase setting" menu for the currently active phase it has been entered "yes".
You can lower the flap when you enter a suitable value in the "But­terfly" line. This function is realized by the brake control (Throttle control stick). Move the brake control to the stop in the brake posi­tion, then, after briefly pressing the SET button, use the selection keys to set a suitable value. If you want to achieve sufficient braking, the flap must be lowered as far as mechanically possible.
Elevator CURVE
Apply a correspondingly automatic effective admixture to the eleva­tor. This prevents you from having to intervene with the elevator adjustment when extending the flaps and/or the speed-brakes.

The aileron is mixed up with the rudder. In conjunction with the dif­ferentiation of the ailerons the negative torque is compensated. This allows a "clean" curve flight. The rudder remains separately control­lable. The deflection direction can be adjusted in the range of ±150%. If you want to control the aileron or the rudder without the mixer, a switch must be programmed. This switch allows you to switch the mixer on and off. The setting is symmetrical.
If you have entered "2AIL" in the "Aile/Flap" line of the "Model type" menu, the "Mixer menu" of your transmitter corresponds to the fig­ure on the left. Regardless of the selected combination of ailerons and flaps, all available parameters can be changed depending on the phase.

Butt.
Move the "brake" control (Throttle control stick) into the brake posi­tion as far as it will go. Then, change to the "Butt." (Butterfly) line and tap the SET button. If you want to decelerate the model, set a value which will raise the aileron completely. Use the speed-brakes as main brake, the ailerons should raise lightly.
D.red.
With the "D.red" function (differentiation reduction), you can switch off the set aileron differentiation during braking. This means that you still have a sufficient aileron effect, even when the ailerons are raised.

The options available in the Wing mix menu and its submenus depend on the number of ailerons and flaps servos specified in the "Model type" menu. Only the necessary setting options are available at all times.
With this default setting, only one change to the right is possible by one column to the right, to the "FLAP" column.
The line "Ail.diff." (Aileron differentiation) is not arranged as in "2/4AIL 2/4FLAP" in the "multi-flap menu", but one level higher in the "Wing mix" menu.
If the servos are connected to the receiver as described in the sec­tion "Receiver assignment" and if you have selected in the "Model type" menu, the abbreviations "AILE" and "FLAP" refer to the follow­ing flaps.

Model types Delta-wing/Flying-wing with more than 2 rudders
If you have selected the control type "Delta-wing/Flying-wing" and the number of control surfaces in the line "Aileron/Flaps" of the "Model type" menu, the two ailerons normally move, by actuating the elevator control stick, as little as the inner flaps (FLAP) and FLAP2. The reason for this is the mixer "ELE -> FLAP" with its standard mixing ratio set to 0% when more than 2 wing servos are selected in the "multi-flap menu".
The desired elevator effect must be defined in the line "ELE -> FLAP". Be sure to use the correct operation of up/down.
The submenu "Brake settings" is also suitable for setting a butterfly function for delta-wing/Flying-wing models. The adjustment of the deflections of the actually used flap pairs AILE, AILE2, FLAP and FLAP2 must be adjusted in such a way that the moments eventually generated by the arising of one flap pair are compensated by the respective other flap pair. Thus, for example, a "low" effect of the lowered flaps is opposed to compensate the "high" effect of the raised aileron.

AILE Tr. (Aileron trim)
This line is dimmed when "2AILE 1FLAP" is selected in the "Model Type" menu. In this line, you determine the phase-dependent trim percentage of "AILE", "AILE2", "FLAP" and "FLAP2". The adjustment range is ±150% related to the adjustment range of the trim controls.
Diff. (Differentiation of the aileron function)
When selecting "2AILE 1FLAP" in the "Model Type" menu, this line is one level higher in the "Wing Mix" menu. In this line you set the aile­ron differentiation and the differentiation of the FLAP and FLAP2, if the flaps are operated as ailerons. The adjustment range of ± 100% makes it possible to set the correct differentiation direction com­pletely independent of the rotational directions of the ailerons and flaps servos.
FLAP Pos. (FLAP position)
Here, you can set the phase-specific flap positions for all the flaps on the respective model. The adjustment range of ± 100% makes it pos­sible to move the flaps to the desired position, regardless of the direction of rotation of the ailerons and flaps servos.
Changes in the menu "Phase trim" and changes in the line "FLAP Pos" therefore always have a direct effect on each other.

ELE -> FLAP (ELEVATOR -> FLAP)
In order to support the elevator, the flap function can be influenced by the elevator control in a phase-specific manner through this mixer. Select the mixing direction so that the flaps move downward when the elevator is pulled ("up"), and conversely upward when the elevator is pushed ("down"), that is, in an opposite direction. A sym­metrical or an asymmetrical effect can be defined for each flap pair. Set the related control in the middle or the related side. Values of ±150% are possible. With a switch assigned in the next line "ELE -> FLAP Offset", the entrainment of the flaps from the elevator and the range of the "entrainment" can be switched off and on and also set.

ELE -> FLAP Offset (symmetrical elevator Offset)
In the previously described line "ELE -> FLAP", you have entered a value to support the elevator. In this line "HR -> WK Offset", you determine the "application point" of the proportionate entrainment of the flaps from the elevator through the offset value. With an off­set value of 0%, the flaps are entrained from the elevator from the neutral position of the elevator control stick with the percentage set in the line "ELE -> FLAP".
With an offset value not equal to 0%, the flaps are only entrained from the specified offset point in the direction "low" as well as in the direction "high" during a movement of the elevator control stick.
To adjust the offset point, bring the elevator control stick to the desired position in one of the two possible directions. You can store this position regardless of the current position of the elevator trim by tapping the SET button. Pushing the SET button in the center posi­tion of the elevator control sets the offset value back to 0%, regard­less of the current position of the elevator trim.
With a switch assigned in the "Switch" column, the entrainment of the flaps from the elevator can be switched off and on. The assigna­tion of a switch is described in the section "Control and switch assign­ment".

The "Brake settings" menu is not shown if in the "Model type" menu "Motor on CH1 front / rear" and in the column "Motor" of the "Phase setting" menu for the currently active phase it has been entered "yes". The "Brake mixers" can be adjusted according to the phase.
Butt. (Butterfly)
The mixer function "Butterfly" is actuated through the control func­tions 1, 7, 8 or 9. Depending on the input you have assigned to the line "Brake offs" in the "Model type" menu.
In the »Model Type« menu, set the offset, which means the direc­tion of operation. Set the offset to approx. ± 90% of the control travel. The remaining stick travel of approx. 10% is then ineffective. The control travel is automatically stretched back to 100%.
Use the selection fields of the "AILE", "AILE2", "FLAP" and "FLAP2" columns to determine the proportion and direction of the corre­sponding flap pairs when the brake control is activated (control func­tion 1, 7, 8 or 9).

When the model is decelerated in the landing approach, the two ailerons should not swing upwards more than half of their possible travel, so that there will still be enough travel to control the model around the longitudinal axis (aileron function).

are moved slightly upward and the flaps move downward as far as possible. By means of an additional mixer (see the "elevator curve" mixer), the elevator is trimmed so that the flight speed does not change significantly in comparison to the normal flight position. Oth­erwise, there is a danger that the model will slow down too much and, after the brake system is retracted (for example to lengthen a landing approach that is too short), will crash or fall.

D.red (Differentiation reduction)
If you use the aileron differentiation, the aileron effect is more or less strongly affected by the arise of the ailerons. Justification: a further excursion of the one aileron is no longer possible (almost) and the control surface moving downward does not reach the "normal" posi­tion.
In order to restore this reduced aileron effect as far as possible, the "differentiation reduction" reduces the degree of the aileron differ­entiation.
A 0% value means that the "aileron differentiation" programmed in the transmitter is held. A value equal to the set percentage of the aileron differentiation means that this, in maximum butterfly func­tion (with flaps completely out) is completely removed. In case of a reduction value bigger than the set aileron differentiation this will be removed completely before the full deflection of the flap control stick.

Elevator curve (Brake -> Elevator)
If the flaps are extended through the brake control as described pre­viously in the "Brake settings" menu, the speed of a model is often adversely affected. This usually produces a tail or nose moment, the model will react gaining or loosing altitude.
With this mixer, this effect can be compensated by a correction value mixed on the elevator. When you push the SET button, then you will change to the manu page of the 6-point curve mixer "Brake -> ELE".
Programming
The offset you set in the line "Brake offset" of the menu "Model type" has an effect on this mixer:
The green, vertical bar in the graphic display which indicates the position of the brake control moves away from the edge of the graph when the set offset value is exceeded. The brake flap control travel automatically respreads to 100%, as described in the "Model type" menu. The neutral point of the mixer always lies at the left edge of the graph independent of the set offset.
Now adjust the Elevator curve in the direction of the opposite end end points. Set this 6-point curve mixer according to the same prin­ciple as described for the curve mixer in the "Throttle curve" menu.

In this mixer, the aileron is entrained by the aileron control. In con­junction with the differentiation of the ailerons the negative torque is compensated. This allows a "clean" curve flight. The rudder remains separately controllable.
The adjustment is only symmetrical to the neutral point of the aile-
ron control stick. The setting range of ±150 % makes it possible to
appropriately adapt the deflection completely independently from the direction of the rudder servos. If the model is to be controlled through the ailerons only, then this mixer can be activated through a switch or control switch. Therefore assign a switch in the right col­umn.
This mixer causes an elevator correction when the flaps are actu­ated. If the flaps are set, the flight speed can be influenced or the flap torques can be compensated.
The position of the elevator is automatically adjusted through this mixer as a function of the set value when the flaps are set. The set­ting can be symmetrical or asymmetrical to the neutral point of the flap control.
This mixer can be optionally activated through a switch or control switch. Therefore assign a switch in the right column.

In a series switch of mixers, the direct control signal of the channel is not used as the input of the mixer but the already mixed signal of the channel from the upstream mixer.
P : This option also includes the trim values from the "Phase trim" menu of the input channel as a function of the phase.
Notice
In the case of series switch, note that the mixing travel of the indi­vidual mixers add together with simultaneous stick movement. As a result, the servo or the servos may mechanically collide. In order to prevent this, the "servo travel" must be reduced or a corresponding "travel limit" in the "Servo adjustment" menu should be set and / or the mixing value should be reduced.

Function for fast, direct trimming of the aileron and flap positions.
The trim range of the controls is about ±25 %.
In the line "TR" it is determined which of the two control surfaces pairs "AILE" and "FLAP" and which of the two possible flap functions should be able to be trimmed.
In the line "Ctrl", you define the proportional control to be used for trimming. Then define a switch in the "ON / OFF" line, which is used to globally switch this Profitrim function on and off.

The throttle trim has a special "cut-off trim", which is intended for engines. First set the motor to safe idle with the trim.
If the throttle trim is moved from this position to the end of the trim travel in the "motor stop" direction, then a further marking remains at the end position in the display.
Then simply push the trim once more in the "higher throttle" direc­tion to reset the trim to the last idle setting.
With the model type "Heli", the throttle trim in combination with the "throttle limit function" has a further property. As long as the throt­tle limit control is in the range -1 to -100%, the throttle trim acts as an idle trim on the throttle servo and the indication of the idle trim is visible in the display.
The position indicator
( ) and also a predefined idle position are
dimmed when the throttle limit control is in the range 0 to + 100%.
The throttle trim works only on the throttle, not on the pitch servos. Note also that the heli throttle servo must be connected to the out­put 6 of the receiver.

• Input the model name
• Select the desired control mode
• Assign the autorotation switch (autorotation)
• If necessary activate the autorotation throttle position
• M-stop switch as required for gas/glow engines

• Swashplate linearization:
For Flybarless systems, select "no" here. In the case of paddle head systems, the setting "yes" can prevent unwanted side effects, such as pitch change when the roll function is activated or tensions between the linkage of the swash plate servos.
• Rotor direction:
Here you can set the direction of the rotor direction, seen from above the helicopter (see figure). This information is required so that the mixers can work properly for torque and power compen­sation.
• Pitch min.:
Pitch min. Rear = pitch minimum is at the rear of the stick Pitch min. Front = pitch minimum is at the front of the stick From this setting depend the functions of all other options of the helicopter program which involve the gas and pitch function. Thus, for example, the throttle curve, idle trim, tail rotor, etc.

• Expo throttle limit:
An exponential curve characteristic can also be attributed to the function "Throttle limit", which is described in the "Control set­tings" menu. (see figure)
• Throttle limit warning:
Through the function "Throttle limit warning" you can set the critical position of the throttle servo variable between 0 % and
-100 % above which this warning should be emitted. The pitch minimum position of the stick, which is specified in this menu, is the reference point of -70%.

6. Helicopter mixer menu:
• Activate the autorotation switch
• Throttle position AR -100% for electric motor, -90% for IC engine.
• Deactivate the autorotation switch.
• Select CH1->Throttle
• Pre-programmed diagonal throttle curve can be used for com­bustion engines and electric motors with controllers without Govenor mode. Pitch stick = Throttle stick
• For speed controllers with Govenor mode a horizontal gas line must be programmed as follows: Here, in the "lower" normal flight phase, a lower throttle / speed is selected than in the second Acro 3D flight phase, e.g. 40%. To do so, move the pitch stick to min. and tap the SET button. With the arrow up, the beginning of the curve can now be set to e.g. 40%. Then deselect this point of the curve with the SET key and set the pitch stick to max. Tap the SET button again and lower the rear point to 40% to create a horizontal throttle line. Then dese­lect with the SET button.
• Now use the flight phase switch to switch to Acro 3D. Here, as described above, a higher throttle line / speed can be pro­grammed, e.g. 65% throttle.
• Afterwards you have now programmed 3 speeds / flight phases for the Govenor:
• Autorotation for motor off
• Normal flight phase with 40% throttle
72 / 80
• Acro 3D flight phase with 65% throttle
• If a flybarless system is used in which the control travel needs to be calibrated, it is advantageous to set up this flybarless system before setting the throttle curves. Thus, the preprogrammed diagonal throttle curve of channel 6 can be calibrated more eas­ily.

"AR"(Throttle-autorotation)
The throttle trim functions acts as an idle trim exclusively in the "Autorot" phase. This means that the AR throttle position, which is fixed in the "Helicopter mix" menu, can be "varied" with the idle trim, for example during autorotation exercises.
In this menu, three additional settings are possible for the model selection "Heli".
Channel 6 - Throttle
In contrast to a fixed-wing aircraft, the throttle servo or the speed controller of a helicopter is not directly controlled by the stick or another control but through a complex mixing system, see menu "Heli mix". In addition, the "Throttle limiter function
" also has an
influence on this mixing system.

Current gyro systems can be adjusted for a smooth, proportional effect; you can also choose between two different modes of action by the transmitter.
If the Gyro you are using has this option, you can specify "Normal" Gyro action and "Heading Lock operation" in the "Offset" column in the range of ± 125%. You can fly with maximum stabilization in nor­mal, slow fights within this selected mode, and reducing the gyro gain in fast roundtrips and aerobatics are performed.
You should take advantage of switching phases to enter different set­tings in the "gyro" line.
Please read the instructions of the related gyro system.
Channel 16 - Limit
After the initialization of a new model memory with the model type "helicopter" the input "Lim." is "free" as standard from factory.
By assigning a control, for example, the right-hand proportional slide control SD2, the option "throttle limit" can be activated and set again.
The "throttle limit" function acts limiting the position of the throttle servo or the speed controller of a motor control unit.

Change to the setting side of the ring limiter in the "=>" column.
In the setting page of the respective "ring limiter" the maximum travel is set between 25 and 125% in the first line and the measure of the limitation of the total deflection is set in the second line between:
0 % Circular limiter ()
100 % without limiter () - The limit is the mechanical limit stop of the respective control stick.
In the two upper "max-X" and "max-Y" value fields you can set the required (servo travel) limit in the range of 25 - 125%, separately for both control functions "left / right" and "forward / backward" . The adjustment must be done in such a way that the servos in the model are no longer running.
