Change mode 4 to 2 Futaba

Hi

I'm using a Futaba MZ18 with a R6308STB, this is set against Pixhawk flight computer in right port and everything seems apparent good.


When I do a RC calibering has some of the channels swapped.

I live in Norway and we fly the "Mode 2"

All other aircraft and helicopters I have working properly.

Can´t find anyplace where I can change the "mode" in APM Planner 2.0.

Is there anyone who has experienced the same problem?

Regards
Per Kristian

  • Hi,

    There is nothing to change. You just have to check your transmitter and verify Functions and Channels. Model should be defined as Airplane (not helicopter or glider)

    Standard channel map for Airplane (independent of mode):

    Channel 1: Roll

    2: Pitch

    3: Power

    4: Yaw

    5: Aux 1 (could be "Gear")

    6: Aux 2 (may be Flaps)

    7: Aux 3,

    8 Aux: 4 

    On your transmitter you can assign Functions (Yaw or else) to Channels. Channels 1 to 4 are standard for airplane and when you change "Mode" in the transmitter, there is no need to change channels on the receiver. So no need to change a setting in the APM Planner.

    • Hi and thanks for the answer, i was thinking a little bit wrong, since i thing that that will make the computer get wrong input.

      The point here was that i was wrong! :-)

      I´m very glad that you helped me out here, now everything working like a charm!

      Again!? Thanks!
