3. Remove the silver metal ratchet lever and screw from the gimbal on the right-
hand side. Rotate the metal ratchet 180 degrees, so the screw hole is now on
the bottom right side of the gimbal, and the ratchet end is now pointing
upward nearest the switch on the top right side, and resting on the ribbed
surface of the gimbal. Line up the lever's hole over the plastic mounting stud
on the gimbal, insert the screw and tighten to a snug fit (making sure the lever
maintains proper alignment over the ribbed area of the gimbal). DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN, as the plastic gimbal may become easily stripped.
4. On the right-hand gimbal, notice there is an arm and spring type lever
mounted vertically along the inner-left side of the gimbal, the spring attached at
the lower end to a plastic mounting stud. This arm and spring assembly must
now be moved to the left-hand gimbal. Using pliers, gently pry the head of the
spring upwards off of the plastic arm. Now remove the spring and arm from
the gimbal (this may require slight maneuvering of the parts to get them out
from behind the main body of the gimbal). NOTE: Pivot the arm outward,
then slide to the side to remove it from the gimbal.
5. Looking at the left-hand gimbal from the back, on the inner-right side, notice a
similar arm and spring mounting lugs as were on the other gimbal, except the
spring lug is now on the top end and the pivot arm lug is on the bottom end.
Take the arm just removed from the other gimbal, insert the pivot end onto
the round pivot lug on the lower inside part of this gimbal and rotate the arm
upward over the gimbal. Insert the spring down into the gimbal so the loop
on the opposite end hooks onto the plastic lug located on the inside top-end of
the gimbal. Once hooked, gently pull the opposite end of the spring outward
and loop it over the end of the plastic arm. If any questions arise to the
assembly of the arm and spring, refer to the arm already in place on the
bottom of the gimbal, as they are assembled in the same manner.
6. Both gimbals are now in the Mode 1 configuration. No alteration of any wires
is necessary. Reinstall the rear of the case onto the front half, care that no
wires are pinched between the two case halves. Reinstall the four case screws.
Configure RealFlight-
Once you have made the changes to your InterLink controller, you will now need
to make some minor changes in RealFlight to match your controller's
configuration.
First, adjust the channel mapping by editing the InterLink Profile. See Select
Controller section on page 51 for more information about his process.
Last, make sure the on-screen Radio Gadget is also switched to Mode 1, found
under the Gedgets menu. See Radio Mode on page 202 for more details.
