Spektrum DX6
The battery to your helicopter does not need to be connected at this time.
• First we will set the radio into Heli Mode.
While pressing up on the scroll and increase buttons, turn the power switch on. You are now in System Mode.
Press scroll until TYP is displayed.
Press increase and select HE.
Press scroll until GER is displayed.
Press increase and select A
To save either turn the radio off or press scroll and increase at the same time.
• Now we will set options in Function Mode.
Turn the radio on if it is not already on.
Press scroll and increase. You are now in function mode.
The servo reversing menu (REV.NORM) should be visible. If not press scroll until it is.
Once you reach the reversing menu, use the channel key to scroll through each channel and set them to the following.
AIL=REV?
ELE=NORM?
RUD=NORM? AND GYRO NORM ALSO.
GER=NORM
PIT=NORM?
THR=NORM?
Press scroll until TRV ADJ. is visible.
Press scroll and select the GER channel.
Place the Aileron DR switch to 0. Use the decrease button to set +45%.
Press scroll until HLD is visible.
Use decrease and set to -1%.
Press scroll until you reach the Pitch Curve Menu. Use the channel button to select PLN, P2N and PHN and set the following values using increase and decrease.
PLN=35%?
P2N=50%
PHN=100%?
Press scroll to advance to the next Pitch Curve Menu. Use the channel button select PLS, P2S and PHS and set the following values using increase and decrease.
PLS=0%?
P2S=50%?
PHS=100%?
Press scroll to advance to the next Pitch Curve Menu. Use the channel button select PLH, P2H and PHH and set the following values using increase and decrease.
PLH=0%?
P2H=50%?
PHH=100%?
Press scroll to advance to the Throttle Curve Menu. Use the channel button select TLN, T2N and THN and set the following values using increase and decrease.
TLN=0%?
T2N=65%
THN=100%?
Press scroll to advance to the Throttel Curve Menu. Use the channel button select TLS, T2S and THS and set the following values using increase and decrease.
TLS=100%?
T2S=80%?
THS=100%?
Press scroll until your reach the CCPM Menu. "mix CCP OF" is displayed.
Press increase to enable CCPM. Display will change from CCP OF to CP2.
Use the channel button to select CP2, CP3 and CP6. All three should have a value of 60% by default. Use increase and decrease to set the following values.
CP2? = 30% (Approximately 6 degrees of total cyclic travel [ -, + 3 degrees left and right] )
CP3 = 30% (Approximately 6 degrees of total cyclic travel [ -, +? 3 degrees forward and aft] )
CP6 = 60%?
CP2 and CP3 adjusts the? cyclic travel of your swashplate (forward, back, left, right)
CP6 adjust? the total up and down travel of the swashplate (pitch of rotor blades)
CP2? and CP3 can be increased if you are experienced or after you become comfortable with your heli. The transmitters default setting of 60% will give you about 12 degrees total cyclic travel, [ -, + 6 degrees]. At this high setting the mechanics are very near binding. In addition using that much cyclic may cause bogging. Shoot for 6 degrees total and then advance to around 9 degrees total.
The radio settings should now be very close to final with the exception of possible servo reversing, subtrims and gyro gain adjustments.
