Operating the transmitter
6.4 Assigning controls to control functions
The assignment for controls and switches defines which functions in the transmitter
or model are controlled by which control.
Controls, i.e. actuators, are:
Sticks
Slide potentiometers
Rotary potentiometers
Switches and their designated buttons
Controls can be assigned to control functions and/or switched functions. Multiple
assignments are possible and quite useful, e.g. a stick can be assigned to the
"Throttle" control function and also be used as a switch for one or more timers.
Examples of control functions: "Aileron", "Throttle", "Retract.Gear", "Spoiler",
"Flap".
Examples of switched functions: Timer ON/OFF, dual rate, throttle-cut, variometer
tone ON/OFF.
6.4.1 Assigning controls
Controls are assigned in the Setup > Assign.Controls menu. The menu shows
a list of all the controls provided in the software (see section 5.3.5
"Assign.Controls" on page 101).
The basic functions ("Aileron" / "Elevator" / "Rudder" for fixed-wing models and
helicopters plus "Collective" for helicopters only) are always assigned to the sticks.
They are not assigned using the list, but by configuring the controls mode (see
page 169). One vertical axis always remains unassigned and can be assigned
using the list (¢ icon). This is typically used for "Throttle" or "Spoiler" in glider-type
models.
You can use this menu to customise the controls assignment according to your
needs.
