4.3. INITIALISING THE GYRO
After switching on the model of the gyroscope is immediately active but not yet initialized. To initialize it, you keep your
model when switching quiet and straight in level ight - the best place it on the at ground or a at table.
After about 2 seconds, the ailerons move up and down just once. This “wiggle” signaled the successful initialization,
the end of the calibration, only then the model may be moved again.
All sticks are to be kept strictly in neutral!
WARNING: during the initialisation phase the gyro detects the model’s neutral attitude, and for this
reason it is absolutely essential to leave the model in its ‘normal ight attitude’ during the activation
phase, and avoid moving it! If you neglect this, the gyro may detect an incorrect ight attitude, with
the result that the model will not y as you expect it to. It may be di cult to control, and could even
crash!
During the initialisation phase the receiver also detects the centre points of the individual control
channels; this information is used for gyro suppression. Gyro suppression reduces the stabilising
action progressively as the transmitter controls are de ected away from centre; at +/- 100% the gyro
is completely disabled.
YOUR MODEL IS NOW READY TO FLY .. !
