All modern radio control systems include helicopter mixers which
ensure that the servos move as required, for example, the superimposed servo
movements required for a three-point swashplate linkage. However, when the
HeliCommand
is used, the mixing must be carried out using the unit’s integral mi-
xer. For this reason please select an unmixed helicopter program (“H1” / CCPM
/ single servo) at your transmitter, so that only one servo moves when you move
any transmitter stick in any single plane. Once this is the case, you can start
connecting the system. If you are not sure how to set up the radio control system,
please ask the transmitter manufacturer. Alternatively - if a throttle curve is not
required - select a standard (base) program instead of a helicopter program. This
also guarantees that the signals from the auxiliary channel sliders and switches
are also transferred without any mixing. Attention: if using an H4 swashplate
linkage, the PC adaptor is necessary.

Note the servo assignment
according to the type of

*) If the swashplate moves downward for increase of
coll. pitch, swap connections of right and left servo(s).
