Channels
The FlightCtrl can handle up to 12 channels from the transmitter.
The channels, transfered from the transmitter, can be checked in that view and assigned to the MikroKopter-Functions.
To control the Kopter you need to have 4 channels: GAS (THROTTLE), YAW, NICK, ROLL
Choosing the receiver
First at all you need to choose the the receiver.
Note for Jeti transmitter: MikroKopter messages will be transferred essentially via morse code message. In the latest Jeti-transmitter (i.e. DC-16 etc.) an own language sequence can be assigned to the messages.
For that reason that also the switch messages like “Altitude ON” are transferred, those can be deactivated with Telemetry: Speak all events in the KopterTool (older transmitter would give in this case a morse code and beep).
There are available:
Multisignal (PPM) Standard receiver (e.g. ACT DSL4 top, 2.4GHz-Receiver R6107SP)
(Connection at the PPM-Input of the FlightCtrl)Spektrum Satellit
2.4GHz satellite receiver Spektrum
(connect to the 2nd serial port of the FlightCtrl)
Spektrum Satellit (HIRES)
2.4GHz satellite receiver with high resolution of Spektrum (2048) (e.g. DSX7, DX8, DSX9, DSX12)
(connect to the 2nd serial port of the FlightCtrl)
Spektrum Satellit (LowRES)
2.4GHz satellite-receiver with low resolution (512) (is used in some plug-in modules)
(connect to the 2nd serial port of the FlightCtrl)
Jeti Satellit
2.4GHz Jeti Satellit (e.g. RMK2)
With this setting, the output of the telemetry is activated too.
Displayed is the telemetry on the Jeti Box.
(Connection at the PPM-Input of the FlightCtrl + connection to the 2nd serial port for telemetrie)
ACT DSL
Connecting a ACT DSL-signal on the 2nd serial port on the FlightCtrl
Graupner HoTT
2.4GHz Graupner HoTT Empfänger (e.g. GR-12, GR-16, GR-24)
With this setting, the output of the telemetry is activated too.
Displayed is the telemetry on the display of the transmitter.
(Connection at the PPM-Input of the FlightCtrl + connection to the 2nd serial port for telemetrie)
Futaba S.BUS
2.4GHz Futaba S.BUS Receiver
To connect a S.BUS Receiver to th eFlightCtrl you need a Signal inverter (Shoplink).
(connect to the 2nd serial port of the FlightCtrl)

Channel function of the transmitter
Depending on the transmitter/receiver you can use a different amount of channels. (See Transmitter)
Is the receiver correctly connected to the FlightCtrl and is the transmitter switched ON you can check of the function of each channel.
Below the graphic you can see the respective channel (1-12). If you move now the sticks or you activate a switch at your transmitter the appropriate values will change. That will be shown above throughout the graphic bars and the values of each channel. (0 = down / 127 = middle / 254 = up).
Assign channels
To each channel a function / POTI can be assigned.
The first 4 channels are already pre-set for Mode2:
- GAS/THROTTLE (Channel 1)
- YAW (Channel4)
- NICK (Channel 3)
- ROLL (Channel 2)
Has the used transmitter more than 4 channels you can assign them to the POTI1-8 as you like:
With a "click" on the downwards pointing triangle you can assign the channels to the POTI as desired:
(Example for POTI 7)
In the bottom bar of the POTI additional switch function will be shown. This bar is under the setting window visible.
So in that way you can see in each setting window throughout operating a switch or a regulator at your transmitter which channel (POTI) has been assigned without switching back to the window.
Motor-Safety switch
Here a channel can be set which is assigned to a free switch at the transmitter.
With that you can block to switch the engines ON / OFF.
<<BR>
Is the switch at the transmitter ON:
- you can not switch the motors off (if they are on).
- you can not switch the motors on (if they are off).
Is the switch at the transmitter OFF:
- you can switch the motors off (if they are on).
- you can switch the motors on (if they are off).
With that function you can avoid that the Kopter will be switched off accidently during a flight.
That could be happen if the Kopter has to come down quickly and also been turned.
For that you push Gas/Throttle completely down and Yaw completely to the left. This is also the command to switch off the motors!
