How do you wish to control the elevator? On the right
stick, or the left stick? Idle forward or back?
In this menu point you can select these points.
Parameter: Mode

What is known as "stick mode" determines which sticks
are assigned to the primary functions of aileron, eleva-
tor, rudder, throttle or spoiler (helicopters: roll, pitch-
axis, yaw, collective pitch). All four possible stick modes
are available. The double-ended arrows are just a re-
minder, showing you how the sticks are assigned:

stands for rudder or yaw

stands for elevator or pitch-axis

The stick mode can be changed at any time (e.g. if an-
other user who prefers a different mode wishes to fly
your model). Switching stick modes has absolutely no
effect on other settings or values (e.g. trim settings).
The stick mode for the active model memory can be
changed both here, in the menu L Setup, Control,
and also in menu I Memory, Properties (

Parameter: Assignment
13.3.2.
Information field; cannot be modified
In the case of model helicopters (model template:
HELIccpm, HELImech), some switches and transmitter
controls are "assigned" to different functions compared
to gliders and power models. For your information this
display shows the transmitter control / switch assign-
ment associated with the current model memory. The
assignment cannot be changed here; when you set up a
new model it is set automatically in accordance with the
selected model template.
The assignment for each model memory is displayed
both here, in the Menu L Setup, Control, and also in
the Menu I Memory, Properties (
tails of transmitter control and switch assignments
(which control / switch operates what?) can be found in
the description of the various model templates (
on).
13.3.3.
Parameter: Control neutral position
Thr. min (Idle) -->
Coll. pitch min. (negative coll.) -->
I
Parameter affects active model only
Where do you wish to have the idle setting of the throt-
tle stick (helicopter: collective pitch minimum)? Forward
or back? The arrow (see picture) shows the current neut-
ral position of the transmitter control. An asterisk (*) af-
ter the arrow indicates that the control is currently at
the neutral position.
To change the neutral position of the transmitter con-
trol select "Thr. min" or "Coll. min" and press the
"REV/CLR" button. The arrow now points in the opposite
direction. Press the "ENTER" button or one of the 3D
digi-adjustors to close the input field.
It is of fundamental importance to set the neutral posi-
tions of the transmitter controls correctly. Many vital
functions (e.g. idle trim, mixers, emergency throttle cut
etc.) only work properly if these settings are correct.
!
Caution!
The motor may burst into life! Never change the
neutral setting of a transmitter control with the
model's receiving system switched on.
13.3.4.
Transmitter control
neutral setting parameter
Spoiler min. (Spoiler retracted) -->
Thr. limit min. (Idle) -->
Here you can select which end of the transmitter con-
trols travel equates to spoilers retracted; helicopter:
which end-point of the helicopter control "Throttle lim-
iter" equates to motor idle or OFF. The method of set-
ting this parameter is described above (
13.3.4.).
