1. Power on the plane and wait until the initialization is done Step 2 Pick the plane up and make it vertically both in elevator and rudder directions Step 3 Enter setting mode and select function 10 when the LED starts to blink Blue amp Red it means that the calibration is being performed It will take you about 5 seconds don t move the plane during this period Step 4 After the calibration is done exit the setting mode and fly it again Gain Adjustment There are 3 knobs on the controller GAIN1 GAIN2 and GAIN3 they are used to adjust the gyro gain for each flight mode separately Clockwise for increase anticlockwise for decrease The gain is affected by many factors there is no standard answer to that how much it should be You need to fine tune to get the best result during flights We suggest you always start with a lower volume for the first flight and then increase it gradually The normal gain will take effect in all flight modes it s the most basic feature of the gyro don t turn it to 0 anyway In order to get the best erformance in auto hover mode you could try to turn the hover gain on full volume Remote Master Gain The GAIN is used to control the master gain remotely You can make a linear adjustment by using a knob or slider on your transmitter or make a 3 level gain control using a 3 way switch The master gain is just an optional channel that the controller can still work properly wi2. new center positions will be relearned and saved by the controller next time it starts Level Calibration This function is only used for auto balance mode to establish the appropriate level attitude of the plane After first http www bay tec de 4 5 info bay tec de Bay A3X Sport User Manual V1 0 time installation or if the plane drops down or up when switch to auto balance mode you will need to perform a level calibration to make the controller re learn a new correct level reference Follow the steps as shown below SJ Power on the plane and wait until the initialization is done Step 2 Place the plane on the ground horizontally In order to get a better result it is recommended that you would need to make the nose of the plane slightly upwards Step 3 Enter setting mode and select function 9 when the LED starts to blink Blue amp Red it means that the calibration is being performed It will take you about 5 seconds don t move the plane during this period Step 4 After the calibration is done exit the setting mode and fly it again Vertical Calibration This function is only used for auto hover mode to establish the appropriate vertical attitude of the plane After first time installation or if the plane cannot hold hovering correctly when operating in auto hover mode you will need to perform a vertical calibration to make the controller re learn a new hovering attitude Follow the steps as shown below
