Model Setup Menu - Helicopters; Swash Type; Settings Menu - Helicopters - Tactic TTX650 Instruction Manual

The "START/STOP" screen should show. Moving the stick up or down will show changes to the "THROTTLE"
position value. The "START/STOP" value shows the trip point where starting and stopping the timer will occur.
Move the stick to the position where the timer's trip point and press ENTER. The position value for START/STOP
should now match that for THROTTLE.
Press ESC to return the timer setting screen. The throttle stick's START/STOP position for the timer should show
below the timer settings.
For example, if a throttle stick START/STOP value of +45% is selected, anytime the throttle stick is below this value
the timer will be stopped. Anytime the throttle stick is above this value the timer will count. To reset the counter,
move the throttle stick below this value and press the CLEAR button.
The "Tx Batt." timer at the bottom of the TIMER setting screen accumulates the total amount of time the radio has
been operational. This time can only be reset by moving the cursor over "Tx Batt" and pressing the CLEAR button.
MODEL SETUP MENU – HELICOPTERS
This menu is for setting servo control functions for when helicopter is the selected model type. Use of all
functions in this menu are the same as described on pages xx - xx except that a SWASH TYPE function screen is
included for helicopters instead of a WING TYPE function.
All channels for helicopters are assigned as shown in the chart.
SWASH TYPE: Enter this screen to select the type of swash plate in the helicopter.
Setting this properly allows for proper mixing of all controls for the main rotor. Four
options are available, with some offering cyclic and collective pitch mixes (CCPM) for
optimum simplicity and performance. It may be necessary to reverse the direction of a
control when using a CCPM mix to achieve the proper functionality.
1 Servo: Tilting of the swash plate is accomplished with one servo for control of the elevator axis and one servo
for the aileron axis. Another servo directly controls collective pitch. Selecting this swash type means that no
swash plate mixers are required or used.
2Sv(180): For CCPM with two servos (aileron and elevator) connected to the swash plate 180 degrees apart.
Control of the pitch-axis happens as a result of a mechanical de-coupling rocker. Through this pre-set mix,
throttle (pitch) stick movement causes both servos to move the plate up and down. Aileron stick movement
causes both servos to tilt the plate side-to-side.
3Sv(120): For CCPM with three servos connected to the symmetrical swash plate at 120º angles from each other.
One pitch servo, one elevation servo, and one aileron servo are connected to the swash plate.
3Sv(140): "3-servo (140°)" for CCPM with three servos connected to the swash plate. The connections are similar
to the 3Sv(120) but with slightly different geometry (two servos are connected at 140º angles forward from the
rear of the swash plate).
SETTINGS MENU – HELICOPTERS
Functions for helicopters support models with various fixed mixes, programmable mix options, and swash types.
