MikroKopter-Tool Settings


http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/albums/intern/MK-Tool/Setting/EasySetup/EN_EasySetup_Details2.jpg





Preface

You can set all settings of your MikroKopter with our free MikroKopter-Tool (Download).

For the standard setting you only have to set the channels you will use. With this setting the copter is normally ready for take off.
All other values are already set and there is no need to change them.

The Flight controller includes five (5) storage spaces (Parameterset => Settings). Each storage space can be set individually.
So you can e.g. set one storage space for a servo gimbal and a other storage space for a brushless gimbal.
The needed setting can also be load via the transmitter (see ''Load setting via transmitter'').

Load setting via transmitter

  • With your transmitter you can load the single Parametersets (Settings) of your MikroKopter.
    Choose the setting you will load (1-5) and hold the stick position ...
    ... and "activate" (A) the setting.
    The copter will then "beep" 1-5 times (depending on the load setting) and in the telemetrie display of your transmitter you will see short the aktive setting.

Info

A changing ofvthe settings can help in fine-tuning of the copter.
But this will not help when the copter have flight problems!


With the default settings you can fly every MikroKopter easily!
If the copter do not fly properly with the default settings, a faulty assembly of the copter or a wrong route of the lines can be the cause. In this case please check the assembling of the copter first.

All settings are preset. If changes are made to the settings, be sure that a valid data is entered.
If a setting with incorrect values ??are loaded, the copter can crash!

Never change a setting during flight (e.g. with a Wi.232)! Then the copter will crash!
So you have to land first and stop the motors. Then you can change the settings.
