(8) BAT F/S: Battery fail safe
When the receiver battery voltage becomes equal to or less than "BFS.
Volt" set in the "GOV EXPERT" menu, the battery fail safe function is acti-
vated, the governor function is turned OFF, and the throttle servo moves
to the set position.
When Battery Fail Safe is enabled, items for setting the throttle servo posi-
tion are displayed. The setting method is the same as "Stick sw", so please
refer to this section of the manual for information on setting this function.
If the battery voltage is lower than the set voltage of the "Battery F/S"
for about 3 seconds, the Gx (gyro) LED of the CGY solid red light. When
"Battery F/S" is set to "ACT" in "GOV BASIC", the servo is fixed to the
throttle position set by "Battery F/S". When the throttle stick is set to
the slowest position, the "Battery F/S" function is temporarily canceled.
However, after 30 seconds, the "Battery F/S" function is activated again
and the servo is locked. When the "Battery F/S" operates, quickly land-
ing and stopping the helicopter, please charge the battery.
WARNING
When using the CGY for the first time, or when making changes in the
throw of a servo and its linkage, always perform the limit setting opera-
tion.
(10) Limit Test: Check the set limit point
Check the set limit point. Press "Idle" or "High" to move the servo to each
limit point. Press "End" to end the test.

(6) Stick sw.: Stick switch
The governor can be activated by throttle stick position.
[Setting method] Touch the "Stick SW" button to enter the setting mode.
"Sure?" Is displayed. Operate the throttle stick to the position where you
want to turn Governor ON. If you touch the [Yes] button, the ON position
is memorized. This stick switch function is always enabled when the next
"ON / OFF sw" is "INH" or the "Governor ON / OFF switch is not set by S.BUS
setting.
When governor is turned on and off by transmitter throttle stick
The data is set so that the governor can be
turned on and off with the transmitter throttle
stick position. The following describes this
operation.
• Throttle stick over set point and more than
60% of set rotation speed.
*This is the setting value of "Gov. On. Revo:
Governor ON revolution setting".
• Throttle stick held at the set point or more
Remains.
• Throttle stick position is below the set point
selected.
When idle up
• When the throttle curve is set at idle up, and when the throttle output is over the
set value (initial value: 30%), the governor will always and remain ON even if the
stick is lowered to the bottom.
This parameter allows the user to turn the governor on or off via a switch
on the transmitter. Choose INH if you do not want to use it.
When turning on / off governor with switch
Select the ON / OFF switch channel with "GOV sw channel" on "SBUS BASIC" menu.
Setting the switch to the ON position turns on, or enables the governor. The fol-
lowing describes this operation.
• Switch set to on position and engine running at 60% or
more of set speed
• Throttle stick set to maximum slow position
• Switch set to off position
When you activate the switch, the direction setting of the switch is dis-
played. Select the switch ON / OFF direction (Normal / Reverse).
WARNING
When using the CGY for the first time, or when making changes in the
throw of a servo and its linkage, always perform the limit setting opera-
tion.
(9) Lim. set: Servo limit point setting
Servo limit point setting defines the overall travel range for the throttle
servo. It is fundamental for governor operation and must be set prior to
other functions. Servo limits must also be reset when the throttle linkage
or trim are changed.
How to set the servo limit point:
Set the transmitter's throttle stick to the idle position. Select [Lim. Set Id].
"Sure?" Is displayed. If you touch the [Yes] button. The limit of idle will be
saved to the CGY. The cursor will move to "Lim. Set Hi". Set the stick to the
full high position and set the same as "Lim. Set Id". If the setting data is not
normal (servo operation amount is 50% or less), "Err" is displayed. In this
case, check the transmitter setting and repeat this procedure once again.
