Servo End Point Adjustment (Epa) - ModelCraft GT3 2.4GHz Notice D'emploi

c) Servo End Point Adjustment (EPA)
With the EPA setting (End Point Adjustment) you can determine precisely how large the maximum permitted turn/
travel for the steering, throttle or additional servos may be on each side. This function is typically used to protect servos
from mechanically hitting an obstacle when deflecting to the full extent. You can set a value from 0 to 120%.
The smaller the value, the shorter is the servo path on the corresponding side. In this menu, set the maximum possible
steering deflection for the steering (CH1) before the steering servo starts to hit and make a humming noise. If a lesser
steering deflection should become necessary for later operation, this will be reduced later using the dual rate function.
If you use an electronic speed controller for the drive function (CH2), you can also define a maximum control value.
However, in order to be able to use the highest motor speed possible, you should not set a value below 100% for both
directions.
If you want to slow down your model at a later time, e.g. for a beginner, you can reduce the full throttle value with the
help of the EPA function without impairing the brake function of an electronic drive control.
Our advice: Simply set these parameters in a separate model memory. Then all you need is to switch the model
memory and your model will be ready for an inexperienced driver.
Setting the EPA value for the steering servo
Switch on the transmitter. On the transmitter's LC display the operating dis-
play will appear.
Press the Enter button to enter the programming menu. The menu item for
model memory selection (MDL) is displayed.
Use the cursor button (up/down) to call the menu item for the end point ad-
justment (EPA).
Now use the Enter button to activate the menu item. The display shows chan-
nel 1 (CH1) for the steering function, an arrow for the current rotational direc-
tion and the respective EPA value.
Turn the steering wheel (see fig. 1, item 9) all the way to the left and keep it in
this position. The running direction arrow changes to the left (LF) in the dis-
play and the default value or the last programmed EPA value is displayed.
Now use the cursor button (up/down) to set the desired servo deflection to the
left. The EPA value can be set from 0 to 120%.
Now turn the steering wheel for the steering function to the right and keep it in
this position. The running direction arrow changes from the left to the right
(RB) and the default or last programmed EPA value is displayed.
Now use the cursor button (up/down) to set the desired servo deflection to the
right. The EPA value can be set from 0 to 120%.
Press the Enter button to store the set value.
Use ESC to leave the programming menu again or to return to the operating
display.
