• Leave the settings for "Factor" and "Factor D" at OFF.
• It may be sensible or easier to activate the gyro for one axis only at first, and then to establish the optimum setting
for that axis, rather than for several axes simultaneously.
Once you have found the optimum settings, you can set up a transmitter switch to control the gyro, i.e. for switching
between gain settings. For example, you could assign a three-position switch to "Factor" and "Factor D", and then use
it to switch the values between 0% (OFF), 100% and 200%.
Flight phase specific settings
It is possible to use a channel to control the factor value by setting up flight phase specific transmitter control settings,
but only if the transmitter is an MX20 / MC20 or MC32; please see the instructions supplied with your transmitter and
refer to the "Transmitter control settings" and "Flight phase settings" menu points for more information.

Display Explanation
RECEIVER 1.0 1.0 indicates the version of the receiver's firmware
Type of Model Selection of model type
ALARM VOLT Alarm threshold for the receiver's low voltage warning
ALARM TEMP Receiver overheating warning
max. altitude Maximum altitude
PERIOD Cycle time in ms
SUMD at K8 (6) Digital sum signal at channel 8 (6)
Sensor at K9 Telemetry sensor at channel 9 (for GR 18 only)
LANGUAGE Select menu language
Model type selection (Type of Model): This is where you can choose the model type.
If you select "Plane", you can then set the gyro settings for fixed-wing models on the menu screens, as described from point 5.
If you select "Heli", you can then set the gyro settings of the integrated flybarless system for helicopters on the subsequent
menu screens.
Low-voltage warning (ALARM VOLT): If the receiver voltage falls below the set value, a low-voltage warning is
generated by the transmitter's RF module in the form of a "general alarm tone" (regular beeping at a rate of approx. one
beep per second) or the "receiver voltage" speech output message.
Temperature warning (ALARM TEMP): If the receiver temperature exceeds the set temperature, a warning is generated
by the transmitter's RF module in the form of a "general alarm tone" (regular beeping at a rate of approx. one beep per
second) or the "receiver temperature" speech output message.
• Move the cursor to the appropriate line, in this case "Ail" for aileron.
• Press the SET button to activate the Channel field, select the appropriate value (1 - 10 of
2
OFF), then press the SET button to save it.

• First select a low value (see P factor section for starting points) and carry out a test-flight.
If gyro stabilisation is not sufficiently pro nounced, increase the value step by step until the
level of correction is as required; if the model already oscillates, reduce the value step by step.
• Do not select a channel (Ch5 - Ch16); this function is only relevant to transmitters with
proportional controls.
• Move on to elevator or rudder and select the desired value (or OFF).
The receiver setup menu appears in the
"Telemetry" menu under SETTINGS / DISPLAYS
or if you are using a SMART-BOX under
SETTING & DATAVIEW. How to access this
menu is described in the operating instructions
supplied with your transmitter or Smart-Box.
