| • Use flight modes? - In a similar way to your RC radio system the Vortex offers four flight modes (N, 1, 2 and H) so its behaviour can be altered for different types of flying. Depending on your flying style you may or may not find this feature essential. You should however select 'Yes' if you wish to use the internal governor of the Vortex with more than one RPM selection. If you chose 'No' mode N will always be active and settings for 1, 2 and H are ignored. |
| • Transmitter Live Controls - This screen shows a live representation of the transmitter controls. You must adjust your transmitter so all controls read 0% when the sticks are centred and barely reach 100% when the sticks are at full deflection. Before you start make sure your transmitter is set to '1 servo' , S-1 or H-1 swashplate type and that the trims remain zeroed in all flight modes. Start by adjusting the transmitter's channel reversing, then sub-trims and finally end-points. |
| • Transmitter Live Throttle - If you intend to use the built in governor of the Vortex adjust your transmitter's throttle endpoints so the control barely reaches 100% when the stick is at full deflection. If you however wish to use the governor built in to your ESC there is no need to do any throttle adjustments at this time. You will be able configure your ESC after completing the Vortex setup. Simply confirm that the throttle signal is moving in response to the throttle stick. |
| • Link Flight Modes - We make use of the transmitter's gyro gain menu as a means of linking the flight modes of the transmitter with the flight modes of the Vortex. Set your transmitter to Norm mode and adjust the gain value so the corresponding flight mode is detected by the Vortex and displayed on the screen. Repeat for Idle1, Idle2 and Hold. Specific advice for popular radios can be found in knowledge base topic 138 on the Spartan website. |
| • Complete - As you exit transmitter setup the Vortex will calibrate the cyclic and rudder neutral positions. Make sure they are both left centered. When ready press the button to confirm, then proceed to the sensor setup. |
