Note: A procedure for adjusting revolution mixing is given

in a table on page 45.

Revolution Mixing Programming

1. Call up the revolution

mixing screen by

repeatedly pressing one of

the Up Down Edit buttons

until the RVMX window

appears. The function is active with 0% mixing turned on.

Put the throttle stick to its idle position.

2. Now press the Data +Increase key. This will increase

the percentage of RVMX mixing for the low side of

throttle. You may set a value of 0% to 100% for this side.

If you wish to return the mixing percentage to the default

0% value, press the Active/Inhibit (Clear) key.

3. Move the throttle stick to a position above half-throttle,

and change the percentage number to suit.

4. Now verify that the rudder responds both the correct

direction and amount for travel on both sides when

throttle is commanded.

5. Set up the RVMX values for the other flight conditions

(ST1, ST2) by flipping the Flt. Mode switch and repeating

these procedures.

If you leave it, you get a

straight line from points 1

to 3. Otherwise, you can

change this setting with the

Data +Increase or

-Decrease keys. You can inhibit THCV point 2 and 4 by

pressing the clear key.

5. Repeat this procedure for Points 3, 4, and 5 by

pressing the Cursor Right key, then adjusting as desired

with the Data +Increase or -Decrease keys.

6. When you've completed the settings for the first flight

condition (NOR), test fly your model. When you're

satisfied with the settings, use them as a basis for the

other flight conditions. Flip the switches as necessary to

get into the new conditions, verify on the display that you

are in the desired flight condition, then set all the five

points in by going through the steps given previously.

RVMX - Revolution mixing

The revolution mixing function mixes pitch commands

into rudder (pitch rudder) in order to suppress the

torque generated by changes in the main rotor's pitch

angle and rotational speed. You can input independent

values for revolution mixing above and below one-half

throttle for each of the NOR, ST1, and ST2 flight

conditions. Revolution mixing is disabled whenever

throttle hold (ST3, operated by the Flt. Cond. switch) is

on. For a clockwise-turning rotor, revolution mixing

should apply right rudder when pitch is increased; for a

counterclockwise-turning rotor, the opposite should occur.

Remember to set the value for both the top and bottom

of the throttle stick's motion.

SWAH - Swashplate adjust (120', 180' only)

Swashplate Programming

1. Consult your model's setup instructions. If two or three

servos are needed to move the swashplate, go to the

model setup instructions (page 10) and select the

appropriate swash type.

2. With all the servos hooked up, and the transmitter and

receiver turned on, move the throttle/collective stick up

and down. The swash should move up and down with no

rotations. Move the aileron stick left and right. The swash

should tilt left and right without pitching or rising. Move

the elevator stick. The swash should tilt fore and back

with no rotations. If there are rotations when collective is

moved, or the swash moves up and down with aileron or

elevator, you need to adjust the settings in the swash

menu.

3. If the servos do not all respond in the same direction

for collective or opposite directions for aileron and eleva-

tor, you will need to reverse one or more of them in the

reversing menu (REV). It may take a little trial and error

trying different combinations of normal and reverse rota-

tion to get the servos to respond properly. Don't worry

about the direction they respond, just that they all move

the same for collective and tilt for aileron and elevator.

4. Call up the swash

screen by repeatedly

pressing one of the Up

Down Edit buttons until

the SWAH window

appears. The function is automatically active when you

select 120' or 180' mixing in the model setup menu.

5. If all the servos raise the swash with increasing

collective, go to the next step. If they lower the swash,

press the Cursor Right key twice to get to the collective

setting menu (the arrow appears over the number 6).

Now press the Data -Decrease key until the sign is

NOR 120' 180'

No SWAH

CH1 +70%, CH2 +70%,

The swashplate menu is intended only for helicopters

whose collective pitch is controlled by more than a single

servo at a time, and is sometimes referred to as CCPM

(Collective & Cyclic Pitch Mixing). The Eclipse 7 contains

settings for 120' and 180' swashplates. Consult your

model's setup instructions to find out which you need.

When you move the collective stick, all swashplate

servos should move in the same direction and the same

amount to lift or drop the swashplate without tilting.

If the swashplate should tilt to one side when you

command collective, one or more servos is moving the

wrong direction or the wrong amount, and must be

adjusted in the SWAH menu. If the swashplate moves

down when pitch should be increasing or vice versa,

change the sign in front of all three servos from (+) to (-)

or vice versa. For reference, there is no SWAH menu in

the NOR menu, but the other two swash types do contain

the SWAH menu. The swash default settings are shown

below.
