Including an electric power system when programming a model
An electric power system can be controlled in various
ways:
The simplest method of including such a power plant
in a model program is to use the throttle / brake stick
(Ch 1). However, in the preceding programming instruc-
tions we have already reserved the Ch 1 transmitter
control for the airbrakes, which means that we have to
explore other possibilities for controlling the motor: one
is to use the switchable solution described in the section
starting on page 152, and another is to use an alterna-
tive transmitter control. A suitable option is one of the
two three-position switches SW 4/5 or 6/7, and another
is one of the rotary proportional controls CTRL 7 or 8.
However, another alternative would be the two-position
switch SW 3. The deciding factor in your choice ought to
be that the switch is within easy reach of your fi ngers.

Example 1
Using one of the rotary proportional knobs
CTRL 7 or 8
If one of these transmitter controls is used, the set-up is
extremely easy. All you have to do is connect the speed
controller to a vacant receiver servo socket 5 or 6.

for example, “I6”. This is accomplished in the …

Example 2
Using a two-position switch, SW 3
This variant implements a pure ON / OFF function, and
results in the motor starting “abruptly” … unless the
speed controller you are using features what is known
as a “soft start” function.
At the receiving end you need either a simple electronic
switch or - if you want a smoother motor start - a suit-
able speed controller.
The settings for this arrangement are entered in the …

First check which receiver socket (5 or 6) is available
for connection to your speed controller. If you have
assigned two aileron servos in the “Basic settings”
menu, and if you have not connected any other auxiliary
function, then this would be channel 6; this is the option
we will use in our example.
First set the selected switch to the “OFF” position, then
