Model Setup Functions

Ratchet change

Some pilots, especially those flying helicopters, prefer a

"softer" or "smoother" ratchet action on the throttle stick.

An alternate ratchet that provides a smoother ratcheting

action is included as an accessory with your Eclipse 7

system. To change the throttle ratchet, remove the back

of the transmitter case as directed above in the "stick le-

ver tension adjustment" section. Then, unscrew the rat-

chet retaining screw, remove the old ratchet, and replace

with the new one. Tighten the retaining screw gently but

firmly. Then, replace the transmitter rear cover.

Changing the Eclipse 7 transmitter's mode

If you wish to change the mode of the transmitter, say

from Mode 2 to Mode 1, return the radio to Hitec for

conversion. If you don't know what this means, you don't

need to worry about it!

To use the trainer cord:

1 Set up both the student's and instructor's transmitters

to have identical trim and control motions. If the instruc-

tor's transmitter is on a different frequency than the stud-

ent's, use the student's transmitter as the master (held by

the instructor) and the other transmitter should be held by

the student.

2 Collapse the student's antenna, and fully extend the

instructor's antenna. If the student's transmitter has a

removable RF module, remove it from the transmitter.

3 The Hitec cord is specifically marked at one end as the

"master" the other end as "student". Plug it accordingly

into each transmitter, with power switched off. The trainer

jack is on the back of the transmitter. Turn the connector

until its notches line up and it fits without having to be

forced.

4 Turn on the instructor's transmitter.

DO NOT turn on the student transmit-

ter power. Move the controls on the

instructor's transmitter, and verify each

control moves the proper direction.

Now verify that the student's

trims and control travels match the instructor's by using

the trainer switch (the momentary Trainer switch on the

top left of the transmitter case) and switching back and

forth while leaving the control sticks and trims alone,

then moving the control sticks.

5 The instructor's transmitter has normal control over

the model unless the trainer switch is pulled, passing

control to the student's transmitter. If the student loses

control, the instructor can quickly "take over" by releas-

ing the trainer switch and controlling the model.

Other Adjustments

Adjustable length control sticks

You may change the length of

the control sticks to make your

transmitter more comfortable to

hold and operate.

To lengthen or shorten your transmitter sticks, first

unlock the stick tip by holding locking piece B and turning

stick tip A counterclockwise. Next, move the locking

piece B up or down (to lengthen or shorten).

When the length feels comfortable, lock the position by

turning locking piece B counterclockwise.

Stick lever tension adjustment

You may adjust the stick tension of your sticks to provide

the "feel" that you like for flying. To adjust your springs,

you'll have to remove the rear case of the transmitter.

Using a screwdriver, remove the six screws that hold the

transmitter rear cover into position, and put them in a

safe place. Place some padding under the front of the

transmitter and place it face-down on the pad. Gently

ease off the transmitter rear cover and move it to the

right side of the transmitter, carefully turning it as you

would turn the page of a book. Now you'll see the

view shown. Using a small cross-point screwdriver,

rotate the adjusting screw for each stick for the desired

spring tension. The tension increases when the adjusting

screw is turned clockwise, and

decreases for counterclockwise

motion. When you are satisfied

with the spring tensions, you

may close the transmitter.

Very carefully reinstall the rear

cover. When the cover is

properly in place, tighten the six

screws.
