= Prohibited

= Mandatory Flying Precautions WARNING Never grasp the transmitter antenna while flying. The transmitter output may drop drastically. Always make sure that all transmitter stick movements operate all servos properly in the model prior to flight. Also, make sure that all switches, etc. function properly as well. If there are any difficulties, do not use the system until all inputs are functioning properly. Never fly in range check mode. In the dedicated range test range check mode, the transmitter output range is reduced and may cause a crash. While operating, never touch the transmitter with, or bring the transmitter near, another trans-

mitter, a cellphone, or other wireless devices. Doing so may cause erroneous operation. Do not point the antenna directly toward the aircraft during flight. The antenna is directional and the transmitter output is weakest. (The strength of the radio waves is greatest from the sides of the antenna.) Never fly on a rainy day, when the wind is strong, or at night. Water could lead to failure or improper functionality and poor control of the aircraft which could lead to a crash. Never turn the power switch off during flight or while the engine or motor is running. Operation will become impossible and the aircraft will crash. Even if the power switch is turned on, operation will not begin until transmitter and receiver internal processing is complete. Do not start the engine or motor while wearing the neck strap. The neck strap may become entangled with the rotat-

ing propeller, rotor, etc. and cause a serious injury. Do not fly when you are physically impaired as it could pose a safety hazard to yourself or others. 7 Introduction Do not fly at the following places:

Near another radio control flying field. Near or above people. Near homes, schools, hospitals or other places where Near high voltage lines, high structures, or communi-

people congregate. cation facilities. When setting the transmitter on the ground during flight preparations, do not stand it upright. The transmitter may tip over, the sticks may move and the propeller or rotor may rotate unexpectedly and cause injury. Do not touch the engine, motor, or ESC during and immediately after use. These items may become hot during use. For safety, fly so that the aircraft is visible at all times. Flying behind buildings or other large structures will not only cause you to lose sight of the aircraft, but al-

so degrade the RF link performance and cause loss of control. From the standpoint of safety, always set the fail safe function. In particular, normally set the throttle channel to idle. For a helicopter, set the throttle channel to maintain a hover. When flying, always return the transmitter set-

up screen to the Home screen. Erroneous input during flight is extremely dangerous. Always check the remaining capacity of the transmitter and receiver batteries before each fly-

ing session prior to flight. Low battery capacity will cause loss of control and a Always check operation of each control surface and perform a range test before each flying ses-

sion. Also, when using the trainer function, check the operation of both the teacher and student transmitter. Even one incorrect transmitter setting or aircraft abnor-

mality can cause a crash. Before turning on the transmitter:

the minimum (idle) position. 1. Always move the transmitter throttle stick position to 2. Turn on the transmitter first and then the receiver. When turning off the transmitter's power switch after the engine or motor has stopped

(state in which it will not rotate again):

1. Turn off the receiver power switch. 2. Then turn off the transmitter power switch. If the power switch is turned on/o in the opposite or-

der, the propeller may rotate unexpectedly and cause a serious injury. Also always observe the above order when setting the fail safe function. Maximum low throttle: Direction in which the engine or motor runs at the slowest speed or stops. When adjusting the transmitter, stop the engine except when necessary. In the case of a motor, disconnect the wiring that allows it to con-

tinue operation. When doing so, please exercise extreme caution. Ensure that the aircraft is se-

cured and that it will not come into contact with anything or anyone. Ensure that the motor will not rotate prior to making any adjustments. Unexpected high speed rotation of the engine may cause a serious injury. crash. Battery and Charger Handling Precautions DANGER Do not recharge a battery that is damaged, de-

teriorated, leaking electrolyte, or wet. Do not use the charger in applications other than as intended. Do not allow the charger or battery to become wet.

WARNING S.BUS2 connectors Don't connect an S.BUS servo / gyro to S.BUS2 connector. LED Monitor This monitor is used to check the CH mode of the receiver. Link/Mode Switch Use the small plastic screw driver that was included with your receiver. The Link/Mode Switch is also used for the CH mode selection. Extra Voltage Connector Use this connector when using a voltage telemetry device to send the battery voltage (DC0

~ 70V) from the receiver to the transmitter. You will need to purchase the optional External Voltage input cable (CA-RVIN-700) FUTM5551. You can then make a cable with an extra connector to the External voltage connector. Before Use DANGER Don't touch wiring.

* There is a danger of receiving an electric shock. Do not short-circuit the battery terminals.

* A short circuit across the battery terminals may cause abnormal heating, fire and burns. Please double check your polarity

( and ) when hooking up your connectors.

* If and of wiring are mistaken, it will damage, ignite and explode. Don't connect to Extra Voltage before turning on a receiver power supply. R7008SB CH Mode The R7008SB receiver is a very versatile unit. It has 8 PWM outputs, S.BUS and S.BUS2 outputs. Additionally the PWM outputs can be changed from channels 1-8 to channels 9-16. If you only desire to use it as an 8 channel receiver

(without S.BUS), it can be used without any setting changes. The T16SZ has the ability to link to two R7008SB receivers. One of them outputting channels 1-8 and the other outputting channels 9-16 gives you 16 PWM channels. Instructions for this configuration and S.BUS operation follow.

[How to change the R7008SB Channel mode.]

1. Press and hold down the Link/Mode button on the R7008SB receiver. 2. Turn the receiver on while holding down the Link/Mode button. When the LED begins to blink green/red the button may be released. 3. The LED should now be blinking red in one of the patterns described by the chart below. 4. Each press of the Mode/Link button advances the receiver to the next mode. 5. When you reach the mode that you wish to operate in, press and hold the Mode/

Link button for more than 2 seconds. 6. Once locked into the correct mode the LED will change to a solid color. 7. Please cycle the receiver(s) power off and back on again after changing the Channel Mode.

In order to maximize signal reception and promote safe modeling Futaba has adopted a diversity antenna system. This allows the receiver to obtain RF signals on both antennas and fly problem-free.

*Must be kept as straight as possible. Antenna Coaxial cable To obtain the best results of the diversity function, please refer to the following instructions:

1. The two antennas must be kept as straight as possible. Otherwise it will reduce the effective range. 2. The two antennas should be placed at 90 degrees to each other. R7008SB Receiver This is not a critical figure, but the most important thing is to keep the antennas away from each other as much as possible. Larger models can have large metal objects that can weaken the RF signal. In this case the antennas should be placed at both sides of the model. Then the best RF signal condition is obtained at any flying attitude. 3. The antennas must be kept away from conductive materials, such as metal, carbon and fuel tank by at least a half inch. The coaxial part of the antennas does not need to follow these guidelines, but do not bend it in a tight radius. 4. Keep the antennas away from the motor, ESC, and other noise sources as much as possible. Antenna Antenna

*The two antennas should be placed at 90 degrees to each other.

*The illustration demonstrates how the antenna should be placed.

*Receiver Vibration and Waterproofing: The receiver contains precision electronic parts. Be sure to avoid vibration, shock, and temperature extremes. For protection, wrap the receiver in foam rubber or other vibration-absorbing materials. It is also a good idea to waterproof the receiver by placing it in a plastic bag and securing the open end of the bag with a rubber band before wrapping it with foam rubber. If you accidentally get moisture or fuel inside the receiver, you may experience intermittent operation or a crash. If in doubt, return the receiver to our service center for service. 34 Before Use Mounting the Servo Wood screw Rubber grommet Brass eyelet Servo mount 2.3-2.6mm nut washer Rubber grommet Brass eyelet Servo mount 2.3-2.6mm screw

Periodically check the cable during daily maintenance. Margin in the lead wire. Fasten about 5-10cm from the servo outlet so that the lead wire is neat secure. Mounting the power switch When mounting a power switch to an airframe, make a rectangular hole that is a little larger than the total stroke of the switch so that you can turn the switch ON/OFF without binding. Avoid mounting the switch where it can be covered by engine oil and dust. In general, it is recommended to mount the power switch on the side of the fuselage that is opposite the muffler. Attached screw Switch cover Less than 5 mm of mounting plate Switch Safety precautions when you install receiver and servos. WARNING Connecting connectors Be sure to insert the connector until it stops at the deepest point. How to protect the receiver from vibration and water Wrap the receiver with something soft such as foam rubber to avoid vibration. If there is a chance of getting wet, put the receiver in a waterproof bag or balloon. Receiver's antenna Never cut the receiver's antenna. Do not bind the receiver's antenna with the cables for servos. Locate the receiver's antenna as far as possible from metals or carbon fiber components such as frames, cables, etc.

*Cutting or binding the receiver's antenna will reduce the radio reception sensitivity and range, and may cause a crash. Servo throw Adjust your system so that pushrods will not bind or sag when operating the servos to the full extent.

*If excessive force is continuously applied to a ser-

vo, the servo could be damaged due to force on the gear train and/or power consumption causing rapid battery drain. Mounting servos Use a vibration-proof rubber (such as rubber grommet) under a servo when mounting the servo on a servo mount. And be sure that the servo cases do not touch directly to the metal parts such as servo mount.

*If the servo case contacts the airframe directly, vibration will travel to and possibly damage the servo. 35 Before Use S.BUS/S.BUS2 Installation This set uses the S.BUS/S.BUS2 system. The wiring is as simplified and clean mounting as possible, even with models that use a large number of servos. In addition, the wings can be quickly installed to the fuselage without any erroneous wiring by the use of only one simple wire, even when there are a large number of servos used. When using S.BUS/S.BUS2, special settings and mixes in your transmitter may be unnecessary. The S.BUS/S.BUS2 servos memorize the number of channels themselves. (settable with the T16SZ) The S.BUS/S.BUS2 system and conventional system (receiver conventional CH used) can be mixed.

* Only in FASSTest/T-FHSS Mode. Receiver ON 8. If linking fails, an error message is displayed. Bring the transmitter closer to the receiver and repeat the procedure above from Step 2. 41 Basic Operation

 

 

If the receiver's voltage does not display on the transmitter When the receiver has the transmitter's ID in memory, a link is established and normal operation is allowed. telemetry functions are usable. When the transmitter has the receiver's ID in memory, a link is established and The transmitter stores receiver IDs by model; thus, if it does not have a particular receiver model ID stored in memory or has a different receiver ID stored, telemetry functions will be unusable. However, the device is operable as long as the receiver has the transmitter's ID stored in memory. Link of model 1 Model 1 Model 2 Link Tx ID: xxxxxx2 Rx ID: xxxxxx1 Operable Model 1: Receiver ID: xxxxxx1 Model 2: Receiver ID: ---------

Model 3: Receiver ID: ---------

Tx ID: xxxxxx2 stored Telemetry usable Model 1: Receiver ID: xxxxxx1 Model 2: Receiver ID: xxxxxx1 Model 3: Receiver ID: ---------

Receiver ID: xxxxxx1 stored for Model 1 Model 1: Receiver ID: xxxxxx1 Model 2: Receiver ID: ---------

Model 3: Receiver ID: ---------

Device is operable if receiver has transmitter's ID stored in memory Telemetry functions unusable because Model 2 does not have receiver's ID stored in memory. Transmitter switched to Model 2 and link reestablished Tx ID: xxxxxx2 stored Link Rx ID: xxxxxx1 Because receiver IDs will be stored in the memory of each transmitter model, it is unnecessary to reestablish a link once the receiver ID has been stored in memory for a given model. Telemetry usable Rx ID: xxxxxx1 When setting up a new model, before using it, first establish a link with the receiver that will be used with it. 43 Basic Operation Range Testing Your R/C System It is extremely important to range check your models prior to each flying session. This enables you to ensure that everything is functioning as it should and to obtain maximum enjoyment from your time flying. The T16SZ transmitter incorporates a system that reduces its power output and allows you to perform such a range check. Range check mode 1. While pushing previously "U.MENU/MON." button. During this mode, the RF power output is reduced so the range test can be performed. In addition, when this mode is activated the right LED on the front of the transmitter starts blinking and the transmitter gives users a warning with a beeping sound. 2. THR Stick Slow. U.MENU/MON. 3. T16SZ Power ON. 4. Select "Range check" at the System menu. 5. "Start" tap. 6. An HOME/EXIT button is pressed to end a range check. WARNING Do not fly in the range check mode.

*Since the range of the radio waves is short, if the model is too far from the transmitter, control will be lost and the model will crash. 44 The "Range check mode" continues for 60 seconds and after that the power will return to the normal level. To exit the "Range check mode" before the 60 seconds, press the "HOME/EXIT" button. NEVER start flying when the "Range check mode" is active. Should you require additional time to perform a range check, highlight Restart before your time expires and tap the screen one time. Range check procedure 1. With the "Range check mode" on, walk away from the model while simultaneously operating the controls. Have an assistant stand by the model to confirm that all controls are completely and correctly operational. You should be able to walk approximately 30-50 paces from the model without losing control. 2. If everything operates correctly, return to the model. Set the transmitter in a safe, yet accessible, location so it will be within reach after starting the engine or motor. Be certain the throttle stick is in the low throttle position, then start the engine or motor. Perform another range check with your assistant holding the aircraft with the engine running at various speeds. If the servos jitter or move inadvertently, there may be a problem. We would strongly suggest you do not fly until the source of the difficulty has been determined. Look for loose servo connections or binding pushrods. Also, be certain that the battery has been fully charged. Range checking on low power. About 100 feet Range check mode Basic Operation MODEL BASIC SETTING PROCEDURE Airplane basic setting procedure 1. Model addition and call Initial setting assigns 1 model to the T16SZ transmitter. The Model Select function is used to add models and to select models which are already set. The data for up to 30 models can be saved to the transmitter. Data can also be saved to the optional SD card. The currently selected model name is displayed at the top of the screen. Before flying and before changing any settings, always confirm the model name. 2. Model type selection Select the model type matched to the aircraft with the Model type select function of the Linkage menu. For an airplane, select the model type from among the 2 types:

airplane and glider. After the wing type is selected the tail type select screen is displayed. Select the tail type matched to the aircraft. There are 13 wing types and 3 tail types for airplane and glider. 3. Fuselage linkage Connect the ailerons, elevators, throttle, rudder, etc. in accordance with the model's instruction manual. For a description of the connection method, see the "Servos connection by model type". Note: The channel assignment of the T16SZ is different from that of our existing systems. Note that even for the same "airplane model", when the wing type and tail type are different, the channel assignment may be different. (The channel assigned to each function can be checked at the "Function"

of the Linkage menu.) If the direction of the servo is incorrect, adjust the direction with the Reverse function of the Linkage menu. Adjust the neutral position and control surface angle with the linkage, and fine tune them with the Sub trim and End point functions

(angle adjustment). To protect the linkage, a limit position can also be set with the End point function. The End point function can adjust the amount of up/down and left/right movement, limit, and servo speed of each channel. 4. Throttle cut setting Throttle cut can be performed with one touch by a switch without changing the throttle trim position. Set throttle cut with the Throttle cut function of the Linkage menu. After activating the throttle cut function and selecting the switch, adjust the throttle position so that the carburetor becomes fully closed. For safety, the throttle cut function operates the throttle stick in the 1/3 or less (slow side) position. 45 Model Basic Setting Procedure 7. Airbrake This function is used when an air brake is necessary when taking off or diving, etc. The preset elevators and flaps (camber flap, brake flap) offset amount can be activated by a switch. The offset amount of the aileron, elevator, and flap servos can be adjusted as needed. Also the speed of the aileron, elevator, and flap servos can be adjusted. (In side/Out side) A delay can be set for each condition, and a cut switch which will turn OFF the delay can be chosen. Trim amounts can be fine-tuned by setting a VR. You can also set the auto mode, which will link Airbrake to a stick, switch, or dial. A separate stick switch or dial can also be set as the ON/OFF switch. 5. Idle down setting The idling speed can be lowered with one touch by a switch without changing the throttle trim position. Perform this setting with the Idle down function of the Linkage menu. After activating the Idle down function and selecting the switch, adjust the idle down speed. For safety, the idle down function acts only when the throttle stick is slow side.

*While the Throttle cut function is in operation, the Idle down function does not work. 6. AFR (D/R) AFR function is used to adjust the throw and operation curve of the stick, lever, and switch functions for each flight condition. This is normally used after End point has defined the maximum throw directions. 8. Addition of flight conditions The Condition select function automatically allocates the Condition 1 for each model. Condition 1 is the default condition and is the only one active when a new model type is defined. If you want to add flight conditions, please refer to a description of the Condition select function.

*The Condition 1 is always on, and remains on until other conditions are activated by switches.

*When a new condition is added, the model data of the Condition 1 is automatically copied to the new condition.

*You can set the model data of new condition in the switch ON state. However, if the group mode (Gr) was selected in advance, the same data will be input at all the conditions. Select the single mode (Sngl) and adjust only the condition you want to change. For Group/Single mode switching, refer to the description at the back of this manual.

*The Condition delay can be programmed for each channel. The Condition delay is used to change the servo throw smoothly when switching conditions. 46 Model Basic Setting Procedure Helicopter basic setting procedure This section outlines examples of use of the helicopter functions of the T16SZ. Adjust the actual values, etc. to match the fuselage used. 1. Model addition and call 3. Flight condition addition Default setting assigns 1 model to the T16SZ. To add new models or to call a model already set, use the Model select function. The transmitter can install up to eight flight conditions per model. This is convenient when calling a model after registering the model names in advance. (The data of up to 30 models can be saved at the transmitter. Data can also be saved to the optional SD card.) The currently called model is displayed at the top of the screen. Before flying and before changing any settings, always confirm the model name. 2. Model type and swash type selection If a different model type is already selected, select helicopter with the Model type function of the Linkage menu, and then select the swash type matched to the helicopter.

*The Model type function automatically selects the appropriate output channels, control functions, and mixing functions for the chosen model type. Eight swash types are available for helicopters.

*For a description of the swash type selection, refer to the Model type function. The Condition select function automatically allocates

(General setting) five conditions for helicopter. Normal Idle up1 Idle up2 Idle up3 Hold Note: Delete conditions you have not set up and will not use. Otherwise you may accidentally activate them during flight and cause a crash.

*For a description of the condition deletion, refer to the Condition select function. The Normal condition is always on, and remains on until other conditions are activated by switches. The priority is throttle hold/idle up 2/idle up 1/normal. Throttle hold has the highest priority. Add other conditions, as required. The Condition delay can be programmed for each channel. The Condition delay is used to change the servo throw smoothly when switching conditions.

(General flight condition setting example) Normal: (Use initial setting conditions/operate when switch OFF) Use from engine starting to hovering. Idle up 1: (Operate at SW-E center) Use in 540 stall turn, loop, rolling stall turn, and other maneuvers. Idle up 2: (Operate at SW-E forward side) Use in rolls. Throttle hold: (Operate at SW-G forward side) Use in auto rotation. 47 Model Basic Setting Procedure 4. Fuselage linkage Connect the throttle rudder, aileron, elevator, pitch, and other servos in accordance with the kit instruction manual. For a description of the connection method, see

"Servos connection by model type". Note: The channel assignment of the T16SZ is different from that of our existing systems.

(The channel assigned to each function can be checked at the Function menu of the Linkage menu.) If the direction of operation of the servo is incorrect, use the Reverse function of the Linkage menu. Also use the swash AFR function in other than the H-1 mode. Adjust the direction of operation of the gyro.

(Gyro side function) Connect the throttle linkage so that the carburetor can fully close at full trim throttle cut. Adjust the neutral position at the linkage side and fine tune with the Sub-Trim function and End point function (rudder angle adjustment). To protect the linkage, a limit position can also be set with the End point function. Swash plate correction (Except H-1 mode)

*If any interactions are noticed, for a description of the linkage correction function, please refer to the SWASH function. 5. Throttle/Pitch curve setting This function adjusts the throttle or pitch operation curve in relation to the movement of the throttle stick for each condition.

<Throttle curve setting example>

Call the throttle curve of each condition with the condition select switch. Normal curve adjustment Normal curve creates a basic throttle curve centered near hovering. This curve is adjusted together with the pitch curve (Normal) so that the engine speed is constant and up/down control is easiest. Idle up curve adjustment The low side Throttle curve creates a curve matched for aerobatics (loop, roll, 3D, etc.). Throttle hold curve adjustment The curve is not used when performing auto rotation dives. Confirm that the rate of the slowest position (0%) of the stick is 0% (initial setting).

<Example of pitch curve setting>

Call the pitch curve of each condition with the condition select switch. Pitch curve (Normal) Make the pitch at hovering approximately +5~6. Set the pitch at hovering with the stick position at the 50% point as the standard.

*Stability at hovering may be connected to the throttle curve. Adjustment is easy by using the hovering throttle function and hovering pitch function together. 48 Pitch curve (Idle up 1) The idle up 1 pitch curve function creates a curve Model Basic Setting Procedure matched to airborne flight. Set to -7~+12 as standard. Pitch curve (Idle up 2) The high side pitch setting is less than idle up 1. The standard is +8. Pitch curve (Hold) At auto rotation, use the maximum pitch at both the high and low sides.

[Pitch angle setting example]

Throttle hold: -7~+12 6. AFR (D/R) AFR (D/R) function is used to adjust the throw and operation curve of aileron, elevator and rudder for each condition.

*For throttle and pitch curve settings, refer to the above-

mentioned "Throttle/Pitch curve setting"

This is normally used after End point has defined the maximum throw directions. 8. Throttle hold setting

*If throttle hold is necessary, please refer to the Throttle hold function. 9. Throttle cut setting Throttle cut provides an easy way to stop the engine, by flipping a switch with the throttle stick at idle. The action is not functional at high throttle to avoid accidental dead sticks. The switchs location and direction must be chosen, as it defaults to INH.

*With throttle stick at idle, adjust the cut position until the engine consistently shuts off, but throttle linkage is not binding. 10. Swash Mix corrects aileron, elevator and pitch interaction The swash mixing function is used to correct the swash plate in the aileron (Left/Right Cyclic) and elevator (Forward/Aft Cyclic) direction corresponding to each operation of each condition. 7. Gyro sensitivity and mode switching The gyro sensitivity and mode switching function is dedicated gyro mixing of the Model menu, and can be set for each condition. 11. Throttle mixing setting

*If throttle mixing is necessary to compensate for engine slowing caused when the swash plate operates at the same time as ailerons or elevator, please refer to the Throttle mixing function. Normal condition (hovering): Gyro sensitivity maximum Idle up 1/Idle up 2/Throttle hold: Gyro sensitivity minimum However, at auto rotation of a tail-driven helicopter, this function may not have any effect at high gyro sensitivity. 12. Other special mixings Pitch to Needle mixing This mixing is used with engines that allow needle control during flight (fuel-air mixture adjustment). A needle curve can be set. The needle servo rise characteristics at throttle stick acceleration/

deceleration operation can be adjusted.

(Acceleration function) Governor mixing This mixing is dedicated governor mixing when a governor is used. Up to 3 rates (speeds) can be switched for each condition. 49 Model Basic Setting Procedure Servo connection by model type The T16SZ transmitter channels are automatically assigned for optimal combination according to the type selected with the Model type function of the Linkage menu. The channel assignment (initial setting) for each model type is shown below. Connect the receiver and servos to match the type used.

*The set channels can be checked at the Function screen of the Linkage menu. The channel assignments can also be changed. For more information, read the description of the Function menu.

*About low battery voltage, all the models included in one transmitter are changed in common. It cannot set to different voltage for every model. Moreover, data reset is not carried out. Before a flight ground range check. WARNING Do not fly in the range check mode.

*Since the range of the radio waves is short, if the model is too far from the transmitter, control will be lost and the model will crash. Range Check The 'range check mode' reduces the transmission range of the radio waves to allow for a ground range check.

*The range check mode, when activated, will continue for 60 seconds unless the user exits this mode early. When the progress bar reaches 60 second mark, the RF transmission automatically returns to the normal operating power. Refer to P.44 60 System menu S.Bus servo S.BUS servo setting An S.BUS(2) servo can memorize the channel and various settings you input. Servo setting can be performed on the T16SZ screen by wiring the servo as shown in the figure.

* With some S.BUS(2) servos, there are some functions which cannot be used. If a function cannot be used, the display screen will change. (Only the function which can be used by a servo is displayed.)

* After reading completion, with connection of the above figure, if a stick is moved, servo operation can be tested. Call the following setting screen by pressing the

*There are functions that can and cannot be performed according to the servo type. ID Displays the ID of the servo whose parameters are to be read. It cannot be changed. Channel Channel of the S.BUS system assigned to the servo. Always assign a channel before use. Reverse The direction in which the servo rotates can be changed. Soft Start Restricts operation in the specified direction the instant the power is turned on. By using this setting, the first initial movement when the power is turned on slowly moves the servo to the specified position. Stop Mode The state of the servo when the servo input signal is lost can be specified. The "Hold" mode setting holds the servo in its last commanded position even if using AM or FM system. Smoother This function changes smoothness of the servo operation relative to stick movement changes. Smooth setting is used for normal flight. Select the "OFF" mode when quick operation is necessary such as 3D. Neutral Offset The neutral position can be changed. When the neutral offset is large value, the servo's range of travel is restricted on one side. Speed Control Speeds can be matched by specifying the operating speed. The speed of multiple servos can be matched without being affected by motor fluctuations. This is effective for load torques below the maximum torque. However, note that the maximum speed will not exceed what the servo is capable of even if the servos operating voltage is increased. Dead band The dead band angle at stopping can be specified.

[Relationship between dead band set value and servo operation]

Small Dead band angle is small and the servo is immediately operated by a small signal change. Large Dead band angle is large and the servo does not operate at small signal changes.

(Note) If the dead band angle is too small, the servo will operate continuously and the current consumption will increase and the life of the servo will be shortened. Travel Adjust The left and right travels centered about the neutral position can be set independently. Boost The minimum current applied to the internal motor when starting the servo can be set. Since a small travel does not start the motor, it essentially feels like the dead band was expanded. The motor can be immediately started by adjusting the minimum current which can start the motor.

[Relationship between boost set value and servo operation]

Small Motor reacts to a minute current and operation becomes smooth. Large Initial response improves and output torque increases. However, if the torque is too large, operation will become rough. 62 System menu Boost ON/OFF OFF : It is the boost ON at the time of low-speed operation.(In the case of usual) ON : It is always the boost ON.(When quick operation is hope) Damper The characteristic when the servo is stopped can be set. When smaller than the standard value, the characteristic becomes an overshoot characteristic. If the value is larger than the standard value, the brake is applied before the stop position. Especially, when a large load is applied, overshoot, etc. are suppressed by inertia and hunting may occur, depending on the conditions. If hunting (phenomena which cause the servo to oscillate) occurs even though the Dead Band, Stretcher, Boost and other parameters are suitable, adjust this parameter to a value larger than the initial value.

[Relationship between damper set value and servo operation]

Small When you want to overshoot. Set so that hunting does not occur. Large When you want to operate so that braking is not applied. However, it will feel like the servo response has worsened.

(Note) If used in the hunting state, not only will the current consumption increase, but the life of the servo will also be shortened. Stretcher The servo hold characteristic can be set. The torque which attempts to return the servo to the target position when the current servo position has deviated from the target position can be adjusted. This is used when stopping hunting, etc., but the holding characteristic changes as shown below.

[Relationship between stretcher and servo operation]

Small Servo holding force becomes weaker. Large Servo holding force becomes stronger.

(Note) When this parameter is large, the current consumption increases. Buzzer When the power supply of a servo is previously turned on at the time of a power supply injection without taking transmit of a transmitter, the buzzer sound of about 2.5Hz continues sounding from a servo.

(Even when the transmit of a transmitter is taken out previously, a buzzer becomes until the signal of a servo is outputted normally, but it is not unusual.) The transmitter has been turned OFF ahead of a servo power supply The buzzer sound of about 1.25 Hz continues sounding as servo power supply end failure alarm.

(Do not insert or remove the servo connector while the receiver power is ON.A buzzer may sound by incorrect recognition.) Buzzer sound is generated by vibrating the motor of a servo. Since current is consumed and a servo generates heat, please do not operate the number more than needed or do not continue sounding a buzzer for a long time. WARNING While S.BUS servo writes, you aren't supposed to remove a connection of a servo and turn off a power supply of a transmitter. Data of S.BUS servo is damaged and breaks down. 63 System menu Information The program version, and SD card size are displayed.

With CCPM helicopters, always complete your servo reversing prior to any other programming. If you use pre-built Airplane/Glider functions that control multiple servos, it may be confusing to tell whether the servo needs to be reversed or a setting in the function needs to be reversed. See the instructions for each specialized function for further details. Always check servo direction prior to every flight as an additional precaution to confirm proper model memory, hook ups, and radio function. WARNING Before a flight, it always check that your model's servo operation, the direction of control surfaces, and switch setup are correct.

Use the Normal mode as long as there is no special reason to use the reverse mode. Tap the channel you wish to reverse. Tap the Yes H/W reverse 76 Linkage menu Fail safe Sets the servos' operating position when transmitter signals can no longer be received or when the receiver battery voltage drops. The Fail safe function is used to set up positions that the servos will move to in the case of radio interference. Defines servo position when signals are lost and when receiver battery voltage becomes low. You may set either of two positions for each channel: Hold, where the servo maintains its last commanded position, or fail safe, where each servo moves to a predetermined position. You may choose either mode for each channel. The T16SZ system also provides you with an advanced battery monitoring function that warns you when the receiver battery has only a little power remaining. In this case, each servo is moved to the defined failsafe position. The battery failsafe may be released by operating a predefined control on the transmitter (default is throttle).Do not continue to fly. Land as soon as possible. Remember, if the predefined control suddenly moves to a position you did not command, land at once and check your receiver battery. Do not continue to fly. Land as soon as possible. Defines servo position when signals are lost and when receiver battery voltage becomes low. WARNING For safety, always set the fail safe functions. Especially set the throttle channel fail safe function so that the servo moves to the maximum slow side for airplanes and to the slow side from the hovering position for helicopters. Crashing of the model at full high when normal radio waves cannot be received due to interference, etc., is very dangerous. If fail safe is reset by throttle stick movement, the fail safe may be mistaken as an engine malfunction and will be reset at low throttle and the model will continue to fly. If you have any doubts, immediately land. Tap the [Fail safe] button in the Linkage menu to call the setup screen shown below. Return to Linkage menu Fail safe setting procedure Decide which channels you want to go to preset positions, and which ones you want to maintain their last commanded position.

The system can be changed from among 6 choices: FASSTest 18CH, FASSTest 12CH, FASST MULTI, FASST 7CH, T-FHSS, S-FHSS. It is FASSTest18CH and FASSTest12CH which can be chosen by R7008SB set. The method of selection is to the next page.

*If you change the System type, other model data is not reset.

*After any change, remember to test the model and fully check servo direction and motion.

*Analog servos cannot be used with the R7008SB in the FASSTest 12CH mode. Dual receiver function (only FASSTest 18CH ) Dual receivers can be linked with the T16SZ. Two receivers are recognized individually by ID numbers. For example, in R7008SB, CH output setting function is used, by setting the first as as

"1-8CH", and setting the second as "9-16CH". Two sets of receivers can be used as a set in the model, allowing you 16 channels. Separate fail-safe voltage can be set to each receiver. However, telemetry cannot be used for the 2nd receiver. Select [System type] in the Linkage menu and access the setup screen shown below. Return to Linkage menu Receiver linking The receiver will only be controlled (without being affected by other transmitters) by the transmitter it is linked to. When using a receiver other than one purchased as a set, linking is necessary. Moreover, a re-link is required when a new model is added by model selection, and at the time of system type change.

At your linkages, if the servo horn deviates from a perpendicular position at neutral, the linkage compensation functions in this menu may not compensate effectively. To correct this use the neutral point function. This will move the neutral point of the servos to the actual perpendicular position. However, this adjustment changes only the axis point of the compensation functions in this menu, and does not affect the neutral position of other functions. Swash AFR Swash AFR function reduces/increases/reverses the rate (travel) of the aileron, elevator and collective pitch functions, by adjusting or reversing the motion of all servos involved in that function, only when using that function. Mixing Rate This compensation mixing is used to correct the tendency of the swash-plate for each control. The following compensation mixing is possible;

PIT to AIL, PIT to ELE, AIL to PIT, ELE to AIL, and ELE to PIT (HR3 mode.) It adjusts the swash-

plate to operate correctly for each control using the corresponding compensation mixing. Linkage Compensation This compensation mixing is used to correct the tendency of the swash-plate for pitch control at low pitch and high pitch. Speed Compensation This function is used to cancel the reaction that is generated by the difference of the operation amount of each servo when the swash-plate moves. Select [Swash] at the linkage menu and call the setup screen shown below. Return to Linkage menu 84 Linkage menu Neutral point setting procedure

*A little adjustment using sub trim should be OK.

*Adjust so that pitch operation when the pitch curve is straight is maximum. 2. Adjust the AIL->PIT amount so there is no interference in the elevator or pitch direction when the aileron stick is moved to the left and right.

*Adjust the left and right sides separately. 3. Adjust the ELE->AIL and ELE->PIT amounts so there is not interference in the aileron or pitch direction when the elevator stick is moved up and down.

*Adjust the up and down sides separately. 4. Adjust the PIT->AIL and PIT->ELE amounts so that the swash plate is horizontal when the throttle stick is set to maximum slow and full high.

*Adjust the slow and high sides separately. To exit setting, tap the [Swash] button. Linkage correction setting procedure

*Set the linkage compensation after setting the mixing rate.

*This function compensates for elevator interference by aileron operation or aileron interference by elevator operation at Low pitch and Hi pitch at collective pitch (HR3, etc.) control. 1. Set the throttle stick to the maximum slow position. Move the aileron stick to the left and right and adjust the aileron compensation amount so that interference in the elevator or pitch direction at that time is minimal.

*The left and right sides can be adjusted separately.

*If the interference increases when the compensation amount is increased, make the compensation direction "-". 2. Adjust the elevator compensation amount so that the interference in the aileron or pitch direction when the elevator stick was moved up and down is minimal. 3. Perform aileron and elevator compensation similarly for the throttle stick full high side. To exit setting, tap the [Swash] button. Speed compensation setting procedure 1. Set the throttle stick to the neutral point position. Move the elevator stick quickly and adjust the speed compensation amount so that the interference in the pitch direction is minimal.

[What is a slot?]

Servos are classified by CH, but sensors are classified in units called slot. There are slots from No. 1 to No. 31. Altitude sensors, GPS sensors and other data sensor units may use multiple slots. Using a sensor which uses two or more slots, the required number of slots is automatically assigned by setting up a start slot. When 2 or more of the same kind of sensor are used, the sensors themselves must allocate unused slots and memorize that slot. Registered sensor Slot Number Sensor ID : Multiple usage of sensors of the same type requires an ID be input. Tapping this will allow for manual input, but see the next page about how to perform auto-

registration via sensor registration. Tap the slot to display sensors which can be used for the start slot. Tap to register the sensor. This is what displays when no sensor is registered in a slot. Tapping the slot and selecting

The function and rate of each channel can be set. The training method can also be matched to the student's skill level. Two transmitters must be connected by an optional Trainer Cord, and the Instructor's transmitter should be programmed for trainer operation, as described below. When the Instructor activates the trainer switch, the student has control of the aircraft (if MIX/

FUNC/NORM mode is turned on, the Instructor can make corrections while the student has control). When the switch is released the Instructor regains control. This is very useful if the student gets the aircraft into an undesirable situation. Setting data are stored to model data. Student rate can be adjusted at MIX/FUNC/

NORM mode. Activated student channels can be selected by switches. Note: This trainer system can be used in the following manner:

1. With the T16SZ transmitter and a conventional transmitter, if the channel order is different, it is necessary to match the channel order before using this function. You can select the channel of input data from student's transmitter in the "FUNC" or "MIX" mode. 2. When the T16SZ is used as the instructors transmitter, set the modulation mode of the students transmitter to PPM. If being used as the student, T16SZ can be connected to the instructor's transmitter which requires the student's mode to be PPM. T16SZ always sends PPM mode signal from the trainer jack.

Up to 10 mixings can be used for each condition. [All model types]

Programmable mixing may be used to correct undesired tendencies of the aircraft, and it may also be used for unusual control configurations. Mixing means that the motion of a command channel, called the "master," is added to the motion of the mixed channel, called "slave."

You may choose to have the Masters trim added to the Slave channel response, if you desire

("Trim" setting). The mixing curve can be changed so that the undesired tendencies can be corrected effectively by setting the EXP1/EXP2/Point modes. Offset-type mixing applies a fixed offset or preset to the programmed channel servo operation and may control up to four circuits simultaneously. The Programmable mixing includes a powerful link function, which allows Programmable mixing to be linked with the special mixing functions, or with other programmable mixing functions.

[Corresponding model type]: Airplane/glider, winglet(2RUD) RUDDER 1 Winglet at Flying wing

( ) RUDDER 2 Winglet at Flying wing

( ) This function adjusts the left and right rudder angles of airplanes with winglets. Winglets are used to improve the efficiency of aircraft lowering the lift-induced drag caused by wingtip vortices. The winglet is a vertical or angled extension at the tips of each wing. Winglets work by increasing the effective aspect ratio wing without adding greatly to the structural stress and hence necessary weight of its structure

- an extension of wing span would also permit lowering of induced drag, though it would cause parasitic drag and would require boosting the strength of the wing and hence its weight - there would come a point at which no overall useful saving would be made. A winglet helps to solve this by effectively increasing the aspect ratio without adding to the span of the wing. Select [Winglet] at the model menu and call the setup screen shown below.

Hysteresis (dead band) can be set to ON and OFF. The ON and OFF positions can be reversed with the Reverse button. SymmetryHysteresis mode The operation is the same as the linear hysteresis mode, but left and right (up and down operations are symmetrical about the neutral position. For example, when you want to switch DR1 with the aileron stick, when the stick is moved to the left or right, DR1 can be turned ON at the same left and right position. LinearBox mode SymmetryBox mode This mode turns on the switch within a range of 2 points. Each point can be set. The ON and OFF positions can be reversed with the Reverse switch. The operation is the same as the linear box mode, but left and right (up and down) operation is symmetrical about the neutral position. 178 Data When shifting the ON/OFF point The ON/OFF and hysteresis (dead band) boundary point (there are 2 points: top and bottom) position can be shifted.
