L. Adjusting the Cyclic Swashplate Limit

Menu point (L) adjusts the maximum possible tilting of the swashplate for aileron

and elevator. The deflection is limited in a circular path, similar to a cyclic ring

function, preventing swashplate binding at full aileron and elevator travel.

1. Carefully move the sticks for aileron, elevator and pitch to all maximum

endpoints. Watch for binding or lack of movement in the swashplate, linkage

rods and servos.

2. Move the rudder stick right or left to increase or decrease the aileron and

elevator throw limiter. Always try to achieve the maximum possible cyclic

throw without causing binding.

3. The Status-LED should still be Blue when the swashplate is at the maximum

limit. If the Status-LED is Purple or Off, you must mechanically adjust the

helicopter to increase the available throw.

ImpoRTANT: If you make any modifications to menu points (G), (J) or (K) in the

future, you must repeat menu point (L) again.

Push the setup button to save the selection and move to menu point (M).

m. Setting the Swashplate Sensor Directions

1. Tilt the helicopter forward. The swashplate should tilt backward.

2. Tilt the helicopter backward. The swashplate should tilt forward.

3. Roll the helicopter left. The swashplate should roll right.

4. Roll the helicopter right. The swashplate should roll left.

5. If the swashplate does not move in the correct direction, you will need to

reverse the sensor direction by moving the rudder stick to select one of the

following options. There are four options:

Status-LED

Elevator

Aileron

OFF

reversed

reversed

Purple Solid

reversed

normal

Red Solid

6. Repeat Step 5 until both sensors are working in the correct direction.

7. Push the setup button to save the selection and move to menu point (N).
