4.6. Teaching the aileron, elevator, rudder, landing flap and throttle
functions
During the following sequence of queries the Assistant assigns the
channels to the appropriate functions as they arrive from the transmitter.
The left-hand column shows the detected channel; in the centre is the
function; the right-hand column shows the associated output of the
Mercury SRS. You can immediately plug in your servos and check their
operation. The Mercury also detects whether you are using, say, one or
two channels for aileron or elevator. The outputs are assigned correctly
according to the model type you selected earlier.
4.7. Direction of effect of the gyro outputs
In the next two screen displays the gyro sensitivity (gain) is automatically
set to maximum. You can now check the direction of effect of the gyro very
simply by moving the model, and reverse the directions if necessary. The
control surface must always deflect in the direction in which that part of the
model is moved.
Examples:
- If you raise the tailplane, both elevators must deflect up.
- If you raise the right-hand wing, the right-hand aileron must deflect up.
- If you move the fin to the left, the rudder must deflect to the left.
If you need to reverse the direction of gyro effect, move the cursor to the
appropriate control surface and press the SET button.
