Avc Tuning - Horizon Hobby Spektrum Smart Technology SR6200A Instruction Manual

AVC TUNING

A value from 0 to 100 is used for three settings that affect tuning; steering
gain, throttle gain, and priority. These values configure the receiver to your
vehicle so you can tune it for optimal performance based on your driving style.
It is normal for gain and priority tuning results to vary.
WHAT IS GAIN?
A gain value of 0 will result in zero electronic corrections, and a gain of 100
will result in large corrections in an effort to hold a straight line.
• Steering gain tells the receiver how strongly to assist steering when the
vehicle begins to spin out of control.
• Throttle gain manages how much the receiver can ease off the throttle
when the vehicle begins to spin out of control.
The default gain values in Spektrum transmitter AVC menus are set at 50. We
recommend adjusting gain values 5 points at a time. Fine tune the settings
with smaller increments as desired performance is achieved.
WHAT IS PRIORITY?
Priority tells the receiver how much you want to be able to override the
electronic stability with your steering commands. A low priority means AVC will
make steering corrections when you turn the wheel all the way. A high priority
will reduce AVC the more you turn the wheel.
The default priority value in Spektrum transmitter AVC menus is 100. This
means when you turn the steering wheel to the limit, the gain is reduced to
zero. This value will work well for a majority of drivers.
WHAT IS HEADING HOLD?
Heading hold maintains the vehicle's direction. It is normal to see the wheels
steer in the same direction the vehicle was last pointed. If a vehicle with AVC
technology is lifted off the ground and turned from side to side, the wheels will
steer in an effort to get back to the original heading. When driving, heading
hold only works when the steering wheel is left straight. The moment you
begin to turn the wheel, heading hold turns off. When the wheel is re-centered,
heading hold is turned back on and is set to the new heading.
AVC TUNING PROCEDURE
1.
With the transmitter and receiver already bound and properly calibrated,
turn on the transmitter and vehicle.
2.
Apply throttle, do not turn the steering wheel, and observe how well the
vehicle can maintain a straight line at high speed.
• If the vehicle does not make enough steering corrections to maintain a
straight line, increase the steering gain.
If the vehicle fishtails due to wheel-spin, increase the throttle gain.
• If the vehicle wobbles (oscillates), reduce the steering gain.
• Once you find the highest steering gain values that don't cause
oscillations at high speed, use those numbers as your steering gain
limit and don't go any higher.
