Swash (Heli Only, Except H-1) - FUTABA T12K Instruction Manual

SWASH
Neutral Point
At your linkages, if the servo horn deviates from
a perpendicular position at neutral, the linkage
compensation functions in this menu may not
compensate effectively. To correct this use the
Neutral Point function. This will move the neutral
point of the servos to the actual perpendicular
position. However, this adjustment changes only
the axis point of the compensation functions in this
menu, and does not affect the neutral position of
other functions.
Swash AFR
Swash AFR function reduces, increases, or
reverses the rate (travel) of the aileron, elevator and
collective pitch functions, by adjusting or reversing
the motion of all servos involved in that function,
only when using that function.

Neutral point setting procedure
The neutral point becomes the correction
standard point.
*Adjusting the servo horn so that the neutral point is near the
50% position makes the mixing amount small.
1. Neutral point setting
Move the cursor to the [POS] item and hold
the pitch operation so that the servo horn
is at a right angle to the linkage rod. Push
the RTN button for one second. This value
indicates the servo's neutral position.
After reading the neutral point, use the
other correction functions to make further
adjustments.

possible: PIT to AIL, PIT to ELE, AIL to PIT, ELE
to AIL, and ELE to PIT (HR3 mode.) It adjusts the
swashplate for proper operation of each control
using the corresponding compensation mixing.
