Lemon RX Stabilizer PLUS Receiver – Essential Instructions

Installation and Setup

These instructions are intended to explain the basic steps in setting up the Lemon Stabilizer PLUS to fly a
conventional plane using the following channel assignments:
1. Throttle
2. Ailerons (or Right Aileron if dual servos on separate channels are used)
3. Elevator
4. Rudder
5. (Gear) normally dedicated to selection of Stabilizer Mode
6. (Aux1) Left Aileron (only if dual servos on separate channels are used), or other function
7. (Aux2) Available for other function
For information on other configurations, see the Complete Guide. A brief note on mixing is included on
page 11. Note that Elevon (Delta) or V-tail mixing in the transmitter must NOT be used.
For a "normal" aileron setup (either single aileron servo or two aileron servos on a Y-cable), set receiver
switches J4 and J5 to ON. Make sure the switches snap over completely.
If your model has dual aileron servos using separate channels (or flaperons), set J4 and J5 to ON and also
set switch J6 ON to activate aileron stabilization on channel 6 (Aux1).
When using a programmable transmitter, create a new ACRO model using Spektrum defaults. If your model
has a single aileron servo or dual servos on a Y-cable, choose Normal Wing Type. For two aileron servos on
separate channels, select Dual Aileron Wing Type.
For Stabilization Mode, Channel 5 (Gear) should be on a three-position switch if possible.
Spektrum programmable transmitters, go to Channel Assign and select a suitable switch (such as B or D).
If your transmitter has eight or more channels, set up a knob or slider to control channel 8 (AUX3) for
Master Gain control. On recent Spektrum transmitters, this is done in Channel Assign by setting AUX3 to be
controlled by the knob (RKnb).
Install the Stabilizer PLUS upright in the aircraft (i.e., flat on a surface that is
horizontal when the model is in normal level flight attitude). The long axis of
the unit must be aligned with the flight direction and the servo connectors
must be to the rear of the aircraft. Other possible orientations are explained
in the Complete Guide.
Because the Stabilizer PLUS uses both gyros and accelerometers (sometimes
called a "6-axis" stabilizer), for best performance it should be located as close
as possible to the center of gravity of the model.
Check that the three gain pots are set to the mid-point – 12 o'clock (straight
up – see picture).

Binding (Bind Plug in channel 7)

1. Insert a bind plug into the Bind/channel 7 slot (labeled "A2/B").
2. With the transmitter turned OFF, apply power to the receiver. The Red and
Green lights of Indicator 2 (and the Red internal light) should flash rapidly
to indicate that receiver is in Bind Mode.
