Models can be controlled with

Channel configuration

Two different channel configurations Config 'A' and Config 'B' can be defined. This allows to alternatively use two transmitters with the simulator.


Channel Configuration

Control Inputs

When the Transmitter controls are moved, or a joystick is operated, the vertical coloured bars will reflect the new axis, pot, or switch position.


Channel Input as received from the Transmitter

Channel Assignment

Tick the corresponding round buttons to assign the Transmitter Channels to the desired model functions:

The check box on the left Enables/Disables each function.

The 'REV' check box , reverses the direction of the channel

 


One single channel can be mapped to several functions. For instance, Brakes and Flaps can be assigned to the same channel. However, this could be confusing on models with both Flaps and Brakes.
