Step Connecting the servos
Connect the model's servos, speed controller etc. to the
receiver, taking care to use the socket sequence des-
cribed in the model template which you selected when
you initially set up the new model ( Servo config.
parameter). The channel sequence can also be seen in
Menu K Servo / Assignment .
TIP:
Not all receiver channel assignments are fixed; some
channels can be altered, i.e. they are unused and can be
assigned freely if auxiliary channels are required. (e.g.
retracts, speed controller = RPM, vacant channels (AUX),
...). Changes to the servo assignment can be made in
Menu K Servo / Assignment (
Note:
If you wish to connect devices (servos, speed controller,
...) which vary in signal format, it is possible to set up
each channel separately (options: UNI / MPX) in Menu K
Servo / Assignment (
Step Switching on the transmitter and receiver
!
Always keep to the standard sequence!
Always switch the transmitter on first,
and only then the receiver.
!
Caution!
Injury hazard from motors bursting into life!
Check carefully that there is no danger of a motor
starting up accidentally when you switch on.
The model will now respond to control commands from
the transmitter. However, all the settings (servo direc-
tion, neutral setting, control surface travels) still have to
be checked and adjusted.
Step Calibrating the servos
The term "calibration" in this connection means adjust-
ing the following features of the servos:
- Direction of rotation
- Centre setting
- End-points
The servos are calibrated in Menu K Servo , Cali-
brate (
16.1.)
Note:
Please take great care when calibrating the servos, as
they can only work accurately enough to provide pre-
cise control of your model if this process is carried out
properly and carefully.
TIP:
For the servos Throttle, Collective Pitch,
TAIL a 2-point servo calibration is sufficient. Do check
that the servos rotate in the correct direction before car-
rying out the calibration process. If you have to reverse
the servo direction subsequently, you will have to re-
peat the calibration procedure!

16.2.).
ROYAL evo 7 - Instructions
For calibrating the two reference points P1 and P5
move the assign button, which moves the servo to the
appropriate position regardless of the transmitter con-
trol position, and hold it there (
values so that the servos reach the required maximum
travels, without being mechanically stalled at either
end-point ( P1 and P5 ).
For the servos Roll and Pitch-axis a 3-point servo
calibration is required. Once again, do check that the
servos rotate in the correct direction before carrying out
the calibration process. If you have to reverse the servo
direction subsequently, you will have to repeat the cali-
bration procedure!
For the servos Head f/r , Head le , Head ri a more
accurate calibration can be made by setting up a 5-
point servo calibration. The number of calibration
points can be selected in Menu K Servo , Calibrate
( 16.1.). You must ensure that the servos rotate in the
correct direction before calibrating them. Do this by
moving the collective pitch stick up and down: all the
servos must move the swashplate in the same direction.
To calibrate the individual points P1 ... P5 use the assign
button. All rotor head servos run to the appropriate po-
sition, regardless of the transmitter control setting, and
are fixed there. You can now fine-tune the % values so
that the swashplate is exactly horizontal at each calibra-
tion point ( P2 , P3 , P4 ), and is not jammed mechanically
at either end-point ( P1 und P5 ).
Step Setting up the rotor head mixer
(only for models with CCPM rotor head!)
The swashplate mixer is set up in Menu G Mixer /
Rotor head (
HELIccpm assumes a 3-point 120 swashplate with the
"pitch-axis" servo arranged at the rear, and the para-
meters Geometry and Rotation are set up by default
to suit this arrangement. If your swashplate is different,
these two settings will have to be altered.
TIP:
The travel settings for the control functions roll and
pitch-axis are adjusted in Menu H Control under the
Travel parameter (
Step Setting up the collective pitch curve
The collective pitch curve is set up in Menu H Con-
trol / Coll. Pitch (
For each flight phase a separate collective pitch curve
can be set up, in order to optimise the collective pitch
control system for each flight phase. For example:
HOVER
With collective pitch range -2 ... +10°, so that the
model is less sensitive at collective pitch minimum.
This provides ultra-fine control for the landing;
ACRO
with collective pitch range –10 ... + 10 , so that the
model's flying characteristics are the same upright
and when inverted;
