57XP6102 - Helicopter Manual
TRAINER FUNCTION
5.8
The XP6102 offers a programmable trainer
function with three trainer options:
Normal mode - In this mode the
transmitter acts as a conventional buddy-
box system. The transmitter can be used as
a slave or as a master: however in this
mode, the reversing switches and trims
must be adjusted so the slave transmitter
matches the master transmitter. In normal
mode, when the trainer switch is
activated, the student has control of all
functions and switches.
Pilot Link - When pilot link mode is used
with the master transmitter, it allows the
slave transmitter to be adjusted to factory
defaults. The slave transmitter can simply
be programmed in a model memory not
being used and reset to factory defaults,
thus preventing the need to synchronize
the trims and reversing switches on the
slave transmitter.
Also, when Pilot Link is used, the student
only has control of the 4 basic channels
(throttle, aileron, elevator, rudder) while
the trainer (master) retains control of all
other functions like gear, dual rate,
programmed mixes, etc. This allows a
pilot to have a test flight on a more
complex airplane without having to
remember complex switch positions.
Pilot Link + Slave - This mode is used
only when the XP6102 is being used as a
slave transmitter and the other Master
transmitter has a Pilot Link program
active. By selecting Pilot Link + Slave the
transmitter is automatically in the correct
programming mode to work as a slave in
conjunction with another Pilot Link
equipped transmitter.
Accessing the Trainer Function
1. Move the power switch to the On
position while pressing the Down and
Select keys to access the System mode.
2. Press either the Up or Down key until
TRAINER appears at the top of the LCD.
3. Press either the (+) or (-) keys to change
the Trainer Type type.
4. Pressing the Clear key will return the
trainer function to the "normal" setting.
5. Press the Down key to access the
MODULATION function.
6. Press the Up key to access the SWITCH
SEL function.
7. To exit the TRAINER function, press the
Down and Select keys simultaneously.
Note: The slave transmitter must always
be in PPM modulation to operate.
Pilot Link + Slave automatically selects
PPM modulation when activated.
With other transmitters it will be
necessary to be in PPM mode for the
XP6102 to operate properly as a slave.
