20. Fail-Safe Setting
The Fail Safe settings permit having the servos run into a specific position if the receiver no longer receives any
transmitter signal. If the transmitter fails during a flight, the motor can be throttled automatically, for example, so that
the model cannot fly away uncontrolled.
Proceed as follows to set the fail safe position of the four control channels:
•
First, switch on the transmitter and then the receiver.
•
Use the two control levers to put the servos or the motor controller into the desired fail safe position.
• Push the setup button at the receiver (see figure 20, item 2) until the LED in the receiver (see figure 20, item 3)
flashes slowly.
• Briefly release the setup button at the receiver and push and hold the button again within 5 seconds.
• The LED in the receiver (see figure 20, item 3) briefly flashes fast and then remains permanently lit.
•
Release the setup button again. The Fail Safe setting is now saved in the receiver.
Important!
To verify the fail safe setting, use the control lever to deflect the servos to the stop and then switch off the
transmitter. The receiver now has no transmitter signal (the red LED in the receiver goes out) and will let
the servos run to the previously determined position at actual fail safe programming.
Attention!
When the transmitter and receiver are bound again, the fail safe values must be saved again.
