Replacing the transmitter battery

1. Switch the transmitter OFF!
2. Pull the snap-latches of the two plastic battery
holders back towards the battery, and fold them up
(Fig. 1).
3. Remove the battery and disconnect the battery
lead from the socket on the main circuit board (Fig.
2).

When fitting the new battery take care to stow the bat-
tery lead carefully out of the way so that it cannot get
caught up when the case is closed again.
Note:
No model data is lost when you change the battery.
9.5.5. Disabling the stick self-centring spring and
activating the ratchet / friction brake
The ROYALevo transmitter is supplied as standard with
both sticks self-centring. The springs which actuate the
ratchet or friction brake are already fitted to both stick
units, and can easily and quickly be activated:
Switch off the transmitter and open the case.
1. Locate the TORX screw for the appropriate centring
arm (1) and tighten it (clockwise) using the TORX T6
screwdriver (stored under the aerial sleeve close to
the screen) just to the point where the self-centring
action of the stick is completely disabled. Don't
over-tighten the screw! On no account remove
the centring arm and spring!
2. The screws (2) hold the springs in place. The screws
(3) are used to adjust the hardness of the ratchet /
friction brake. The further you tighten the screw,
the harder the action of the ratchet or brake.
If you wish, it is possible to activate both springs on the
same stick, so that you obtain a mixture of ratchet and
brake action (friction) with that stick; some pilots find
this combination gives the optimum feeling of control.

Adjusting the "hardness" of the stick unit

In technical terms the "hardness" of the stick is the cen-
tring force of the neutralising spring.
With the ROYALevo it is possible to adjust the "hard-
ness" of each of the four stick axes separately. The dia-
gram above shows where the adjustments are made. If
you tighten the screws (4), the associated stick axis be-
comes "harder".
9.5.7.

Swivelling the stick units

The stick units of the ROYALevo can be rotated to suit
the natural angle of movement of your hands - a unique
feature to date. This is especially useful if you use your
transmitter hand-held, and control the model using
your thumbs on short stick tops. In this case the "natural
working axis" is not exactly horizontal and vertical rela-
tive to the transmitter, but at a greater or lesser angle.
Both stick units of the ROYALevo can be swivelled to
any point up to about 15° away from "square".
1. Locate the TORX T6 screwdriver (under the aerial
sleeve close to the screen) and use it to loosen the
three TORX screws of the appropriate stick unit to
the point where the unit can be swivelled (Fig. 1).
2. Swivel the stick unit to your preferred angle, then
re-tighten the TORX screws (Fig. 2).

Don't over-tighten the screws, or you risk strip-
ping the threads in the plastic!
