A New Model Helicopter - Multiplex ROYALevo 7 Manuel D'utilisation

ROYAL evo 7
Step Setting up mixers
Mixers are set up in Menu G Mixer . This menu is dy-
namic, i.e. only those mixers used in the model are dis-
played. Mixer types and their function are described in
detail in the section on model templates (
By default the mixers are assigned sensible average set-
tings for the model template in use, but they still have
to be fine-tuned to suit your particular model.
Details on the subject "setting up mixers" can be found
in the Mixer section ( 15.4.).
Step Setting up the transmitter controls
Transmitter controls are set up in Menu H Control .
This menu is dynamic, i.e. only the controls required for
your model / model template are displayed. By default
the control settings are assigned sensible values for the
model template you have selected, but they still need to
be fine-tuned to suit your particular model.
All you need to know on the subject "Setting up trans-
mitter controls" can be found in the Section
Step Pre-flight checks
Your newly set-up model should now be ready to fly.
But be sure to check all the working systems carefully
before you attempt to fly it.
Fine-tuning, especially of mixers and transmitter control
settings, can only be carried out during the test-flying
procedure with the new model. Please don't try to make
changes in a menu while the model is flying. It is far
safer and more convenient to use the 3D digi-adjustors
to alter the values ( 10.2.2.).
Step Activating flight phases
If you have set up a model based on one of the model
templates BASIC2 ... 4 FLAPS , you can optimise the
model's settings for various flight tasks by switching to
other flight phases. Before activating additional flight
phases the model should first be test-flown and
trimmed out properly in one flight phase (generally the
NORMAL phase), and all mixer and transmitter control
settings finalised. Only then should you activate addi-
tional flight phases as required, in order to optimise the
model for different flight situations, such as landing /
aerobatics, thermal / speed, cruise / auto-rotation. An-
other flight phase has first to be released, and then the
settings can be copied from the first flight phase to the
new one. The transmitter control settings (Menu H
Control
14.) can now be optimised for the new
flight phase. All transmitter control settings which are
marked with a small number ( 1 ... 3 or 4 ) can be ad-
justed separately for each flight phase.
You will find all you need to know about flight phases in
the Section 18.4.

Safety note
Radio-controlled model helicopters are technically so-
20.).
phisticated and demanding flying machines which re-
quire careful setting-up, maintenance and care. If oper-
ated incompetently or carelessly they represent a seri-
ous potential hazard.
If you are a beginner, this is our advice:
Start by asking an experienced model pilot for help;
join a club, or enrol at a model flying training centre;
Ask your local model shop for advice;
Read all you can on the subject (books, magazines).
Step
A new model is initially set up in Menu I Memory , in the
New Model sub-menu (
14. In this menu the following happens:
1. The first empty memory is automatically selected
for the new model.
( Memory No. parameter
2. Select one of the two helicopter model templates
( Template parameter
HELImech For models with mechanical rotor
HELIccpm For models with electronic rotor head
A detailed description of the helicopter model
templates can be found at
3. Select the manufacturer-specific servo sequence at
the receiver (from MULTIPLEX, HiTEC, Futaba or JR)
( Servo config. parameter
4. Select your preferred stick mode, i.e. which stick is
to control which model function (e.g. collective
pitch right or left, roll right or left, ...)
( Mode parameter
Leave the menu by selecting OK

6. In the Control sub-menu of the Setup menu, select
the control neutral settings for:
