Purpose:
This menu is used to reverse the direction of a channel. Since configurations are endless on the rc vehicle there needs to be a way to reverse a channel. The reasons for this could be personal preference, reverse configuration on rc vehicle, and/or on board equipment doesn't use a normal configuration for determining servo signals.
Examples of a reason for reversing a channels is as follows.
- If the the steering wheel is turned clockwise on a radio (often correlated to turning right) and the rc car turns left. The steering channel (channel 1) needs to be reversed.
- If the trigger is pulled (often correlated to going forwards) and the rc car goes backwards. The throttle channel (Channel 2) needs to be reversed
- If the ESC won't calibrate on first time setup, it's probably because the throttle channel needs to be reversed.
How to access this menu:
The Reverse Menu is a menu within the Main Menu. To open in up, do the following
- Starting from the Home Screen
- Press enter-SHORT
- Scroll till REV is lit up
- Press enter-SHORT
- This is the reverse menu
How to use this menu:
Within the reverse menu there will be "n" number of secondary menu's, where "n" is the number of channels activated for a given model. Each secondary menu (each channel) has one parameter than can be changed; NORmal direction or REVerse direction. Once the reverse menu has been entered use the SCROLL wheel to switch channels. Press enter-SHORT to select the channel. Use the SCROLL wheel to switch between normal direction (NOR) and reverse direction (REV). Then press enter-SHORT to go back to the channel selection.
Press enter-LONG or END to exit the menu and return to the main menu. Press BACK to exit the menu and return to the home screen.
So to summarize
- Use SCROLL to switch the active channel
- Press enter-SHORT to select the active channel
- Use SCROLL to choose NORmal or REVerse direction for selected channel
- Press enter-SHORT to return to channel selection
- Use enter-LONG, END, or BACK to exit the menu.
Screen Indicators:
While the reverse Menu is open, the following should occur
- REV in the top menu bar is lit up and "Channel:" on the left will be lit up
- If in channel selection, the 7 segment number will be blinking. This is the active channel
- If choosing between NOR/REV, the 3 character dot display will be blinking NOR/REV
