Channel Reverse

CH-REV

Levels

LV1, LV2, LV3

DEFINITION: Reverses the direction the servo moves when given an input. If the

vehicle is turning right when wheel is turned left (or vice versa), reverse the
setting for the steering. If the engine accelerates when brake is pushed, reverse
the setting for the throttle.

AVAILABLE FOR: Steering, throttle, channel 3
ADJUSTABILITY: Normal, reverse
INTERACTION: Servo reversing affects all other functions, including EPA.
DESIRED END RESULT: Change the servo’s direction to exactly the opposite.

CAUTION: Servo reversing affects all functions, including ATL.

End Point Adjustment

EPA

Levels

LV1, LV2, LV3

DEFINITION: End point, commonly called EPA or ATV, adjusts (shortens or

lengthens) the total travel of the servo. For example, a steering servo travels 60°
each way. Decreasing the right EPA to 50% results in a steering servo that will
move 60° to the left but only 30° to the right.

AVAILABLE FOR: Steering, throttle, channel 3.

ADJUSTABILITY: 0-120% on all 3 channels. Default: 100%.
