regard. The default setting for the HoTT receiver is

“HOLD” mode.

If interference should occur with hold-mode in force, and

if you are very lucky, the model aircraft will ﬂy straight

ahead for an indeﬁnite period and then “land” some-

where or other without causing major damage. However,

if the interference strikes in the wrong place and at the

wrong time, then a power model could become uncon-

trollable and tear wildly across the ﬂying ﬁeld, endanger-

ing pilots and spectators.

For this reason you really must consider whether you

should at least program the throttle to “motor stopped”,

to avoid the worst of these risks. If you are unsure of

this, please ask a competent model pilot for advice on

how to ﬁnd a “sensible” setting for your model.

After that warning we present a brief description of the

three possible Fail-Safe variants offered by the mx-16

HoTT transmitter:

The simplest way of setting Fail-Safe - and the one we

recommend - is to use the “Fail-Safe” menu, which is

accessed from the multi-function list; see page 136.

A similar alternative, albeit slightly more difﬁcult to ac-

cess, is to use the “FAIL-SAFE ALL” option described on

the next double-page.

And ﬁnally there is the relatively complex method of

entering individual settings using the “MODE”, “F.S.Pos.”

and “DELAY” options. The description of this variant

starts below with the “MODE” option.

OUTPUT CH (servo socket)

In this line you select the OUTPUT CH (receiver servo

socket) which is to be adjusted.

INPUT CH (input channel select)

As already mentioned on page 137, the eight control

functions of the mx-16 HoTT transmitter can be

shared out between several receivers if necessary, or

alternatively several receiver outputs can be assigned

to the same control function; for example, you may wish

to be able to operate each aileron with two servos, or to

control an oversized rudder using two coupled servos

instead of a single one.

Sharing control functions amongst multiple HoTT receiv-

ers is a useful idea for large-scale models, for example,

to avoid long servo leads. In this case bear in mind that

only the last bound receiver can be addressed using the

“Telemetry” menu.

The eight control channels (INPUT CH) of the mx-16

HoTT can be managed in the appropriate manner using

the facility known as “channel mapping”, i. e. by assign-

ing a different control channel in the INPUT CH line to

the receiver servo socket selected in the OUTPUT CH

line. BUT CAUTION: if, for example, you have entered

“2AIL” in the “Aileron/ﬂap” line of the “Base settings”

menu at the transmitter, then control function 2 (aileron)

is already divided to control channels 2 + 5 for the left

and right ailerons. In this case the corresponding re-

ceiver INPUT CH, i.e. the channels to be mapped, would

then be channels 02 + 05; see the following example.

Examples:

You wish to assign two or more servos to each ailer-•

on of a large-scale model aircraft:

Assign the two standard aileron control channels 2 or

5 as INPUT CH to the appropriate OUTPUT CH (ser-

vo sockets), maintaining the correct sequence for the

left and right wings.

You wish to control the rudder of a large-scale model •

aircraft using two or more servos:

Assign one and the same INPUT CH (control chan-

nel) to each of the appropriate OUTPUT CH (servo

sockets); in this case the default rudder channel 4.

MODE

The settings you enter for the options “MODE”, “F.S.Pos.”

and “DELAY” determine the receiver’s behaviour if inter-

ference should affect the transmission from transmitter

to receiver.

The setting programmed under “MODE” always refers to

the channel you have set in the OUTPUT CH line.

The default setting for all servos is “HOLD”.
