Note:
The helicopter flight phase "Auto-rotation" is the
exception to this rule. When you operate the
AUTOROT switch, the software immediately switches
to the AUTOROT flight phase.
The Flight Phase menu may look like this for a
fixed-wing model (Fig. 19.4.1.) or a helicopter (Fig.
19.4.2):

Fig. 19.4.1. shows the following information:
a. The first column shows the number of the flight
phase, followed by its name.
b. Flight phases 1 and 3 and 4 are locked
(names crossed-through).
c. Flight phase 2 NORMAL is active
( x after the name).
d. The flight phase switch is J> on the right-hand
side.
e. Time shows the flight phase transition time.
The same applies to the four helicopter flight phases
which are shown in Fig. 19.4.2.
19.4.1.

Selecting flight phase names

You can assign to each flight phase any of the thirteen
names included in the list below:
NORMAL , START1 , START2 , THERMAL1 , THERMAL2 ,
SPEED1 , SPEED2 , CRUISE ,
HOVER , 3D , ACRO
The sole purpose of the flight phase name is to pro-
vide additional information. In terms of the properties
of the phase it is the number of the phase which is
crucial, ie. flight phases of the same name do not
necessarily have the same settings or properties.
Changing a flight phase name:
Use the / buttons (or alternatively one of the two
3-D digi-adjusters) to select a flight phase, and con-
firm your choice by pressing the ENTER button or one
of the 3-D digi-adjusters.
The cursor jumps to the name input field.
You can now select a suitable name using the
buttons or one of the two 3-D digi-adjusters.
Pressing the ENTER button or pressing one of the 3-D
digi-adjusters once concludes the input process.
Note: changing the name of the active flight phase
When you have selected the active flight phase
(marked with the letter " x "), you must press the 3-D
digi-adjuster or ENTER twice in order to conclude the
procedure.

Locking / unlocking flight phases

The flight phases are unlocked or locked using the
REV/CLR button. By locking a flight phase you can
avoid the danger of launching with a flight phase se-
lected which does not contain the correct settings.
If you operate a flight phase switch to select a locked
flight phase, you will hear a continuous beep to warn
you of your error. The last used flight phase remains
active, and its number is shown in Status displays 1 , 2
and 3 (
10.6.2.). The name of the locked flight
phase which you tried to access is shown crossed out.
How to lock / unlock flight phases:
First select a flight phase, and confirm your choice by
pressing the ENTER button or one of the 3-D digi-
adjusters.
The cursor now jumps to the flight phase name. At
this point you can toggle between "free" and "locked"
using the REV/CLR button.
Selecting a different name using the 3-D digi-adjuster
also unlocks a locked flight phase.
Note:
The active flight phase (marked with an x ) cannot be
locked.
19.4.3.

Copying flight phases

If you wish to start using different flight phases, we
recommend the following procedure:
First fly the model using just one flight phase, leaving
the other phases locked. Test-fly and adjust the model
until you are confident that it is trimmed perfectly. At
this stage the first flight phase should be copied. Now
when you switch to the new flight phase(s) you can be
sure that the model will continue to fly in the usual
way. All you have to do at this stage is carry out the
desired changes in the additional flight phases.
The active flight phase is marked with an x . The only
flight phase you can copy is the active one. The fol-
lowing steps are required:
a. Select the active phase ( x ) using the UP / DOWN
buttons ( / ), or alternatively using one of the
two 3-D digi-adjusters.
b. Press the 3-D digi-adjuster (or ENTER) twice,
the cursor jumps to the x .
c. Select the target phase to receive the copy, using
the UP / DOWN buttons (
one of the two 3-D digi-adjusters. A letter c (= copy)
appears after the target phase name.
d. Press the ENTER button or one of the 3-D digi-
adjusters to conclude the copy process.
