Pitch Curve - GRAUPNER S1005 Programming Manual

Pitch curve

Quick-Link-specific setting of the pitch control curve
In the basic transmitter display, use a finger or the
provided stylus to touch the gear icon labelled "F":

Flight-phase-dependent settings of the pitch curve
If you have created Quick Links in the submenu
"Q.Link", page 168, and have assigned an appropriate
name, it appears at the top right in green font such
as "NORMAL". Activate the corresponding switches if
desired to switch between Quick Links.
Note:
The option "Reversing the control direction",
which is described below, was introduced with
firmware version V 1.021.
Changing the control direction of the pitch control
stick
In the helicopter program for the mz-18 HoTT and mz-
000%
24 HoTT transmitters, the "rear" throttle position is the
4.2V
"Pitch min." position by default. With this option, which
was introduced in firmware version V1.021, the control
direction of the pitch control stick can be easily switched
from "Pitch min. rear" to "Pitch min. front" by touching
the button in the "Pitch min." line:

Note:
In the graphic of the display, the curve
characteristics are shown directly.
The pitch control curve can be specified by up to 7
points, the so-called support points, along the entire
control stick travel depending on the Quick Link.
At the beginning, fewer support points are required to
set the pitch curve. It is, however, highly recommendable
to start with three support points. These three endpoints,
the two endpoints "Pitch low (L)" = -100% control travel
and "Pitch high (H)" = +100% control travel, as well as a
point to be placed in the control center, describe a linear
characteristic for the pitch curve.
Basic operating steps
• Taste ST OFF
Touch this button with a finger or the provided stylus
to switch on and off the graphic and numeric display
of the control stick position.
With the control element (gas/pitch control stick),
a vertical green line is moved synchronously in the
graph between the two endpoints "L" and "H". The
momentary control stick position is also displayed
numerically in the line "IN" (-100 % to +100 %). The
intersection of this line with the curve is identified
