RC Logger 88001RC, Operating Instructions Manual

P. 28

Beginners in particular are urgently advised to reduce the directness of the control command with whichthe RC EYE 650 performs 

the commands from the remote control around the centre detent (negativeexponential “expo”).

Normally,.the.RC.EYE.650.responds.linearly..This.means.that.the.pilot.stick.deflection.and.the.re

action are synchronous. With negative 

expo,.the.RC.EYE.650.will.respond.relatively.sluggishly.at.the.start.of.the.controlling.motion..In.the.case.of.stronger.control.deflections,.

however,.it.responds.much.more.strongly.to.the.control.command..This.is.particularly.beneficial.for.beginners.who.initially.tend.to.oversteer,.

i.e..move.the.control.stick.of.the.remote.control.more.intensely.than.necessary..This.effect.is,.of.course,.only.desired.for.the.three.control.

axes.(roll,.nick.and.yaw).and.not,.however,.for.throttle..Thus:.Do.not.configure.expo.on.the.throttle!.In.other.words:.With.negative.expo,.slow.

behavior.of.the.flying.device.is.achieved.on.the.controlling.motions.in.the.area.of.the.centre.detent.of.the.pilot.stick..This.takes.place.either.

via.the.optionally.available.software,.via.the.RC.EYE.650’s.jumpers.(see.“beginner.mode”).or.via.the.existing.“expo.function”.of.the.remote.

control..Only.computerised.remote.controls.can.set.“expo”..However,.care.must.be.taken,.since.the.higher.the.negative.expo.selected,.the.

more.aggressively.the.RC.EYE.650.reacts.when.the.control.stick.is.moved.in.the.area.of.full.deflection.
To.set.the.modes:

Beginner.-.Switch.off.DIP.1.and.2.

>

Sport.-.Switch.on.DIP.1.and.switch.off.DIP.2.

>

User.-.Switch.off.DIP.1.and.switch.on.DIP.2.

>

For the “user” flight mode, you must configure your own setting with the optionally available configuration PC software. The default 

setting of the “user” flight mode is the same as the “beginner” flight mode. Observe the operating instructions for the software.
The software can be purchased separately: 89002RC Configuration Kit.

Checking the Connections

Check.all.screws.for.tightness.before.transport.and.flights..Vibration.during.transport.and.flight.may.cause.screws.to.loosen..Due.to.this,.you.

need.to.conduct.a.thorough.pre-flight.check.just.as.for.a.real.helicopter.

Checking Movable Parts

Always.check.all.movable.parts.and.all.parts.with.bearings.for.unobstructed.movement.before.flying..They.must.be.easy.to.move,.but.without.play.

Adjustment of the neutral Position

For the stabilisation

.of.the.RC.EYE.650.to.work.correctly,.the.neutral.position.must.be.set..This.is.the.position.that.the.RC.EYE.650.tries.to.

stabilise.as.long.as.no.other.flying.manoeuvre.is.desired.
Proceed.in.the.following.sequence:

Switch on the transmitter.

1. 

Set THROTTLE to zero and all other levers and trims to the neutral position.

2. 

Place.the.RC.EYE.650.on.a.level,.even.surface!

3. 

Use the enclosed spirit level (Box 4-i) to check the level of the surface.

Connect.the.rechargeable.battery.to.the.RC.EYE.650.

4. 

The.RC.EYE.650’s.red.LED.(LD2).must.be.OFF.and.the.green.LED.(LD1).must.be.ON.

5. 

Move.THROTTLE.to.full.deflection.and.YAW.to.full.deflection.on.the.right.

6.
