Graupner MC-20 HoTT |
INFO:
The HoTT-Telemetry is supported from FlightControl V2.1.
NEW: Support of the Graupner V4 version.
The needed software for the Graupner transmitter/receiver and the needed voice file you can download here: Download
Now with the V4 you can display the telemetry data in a new menu. The display in the text-telemetry is also still possible.
In addition customized voice messages can be played to the same time.
That is possible since the following software versions:
At the Kopter:
FlightCtrl V 0.88m + NaviCtrl V 0.28m (Link)
Graupner transmitter/receiver:
Transmitter MC-20 HoTT (V4) V 1.016
Receiver GR-16 V 5a70 / GR-24 V 3a40
Soundfiles => Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Spanish
Instruction for the MC-20
The instruction of the appropriate and actual version you can download directly from Graupner: MC-20 HoTT Instruction Manual
Configure the transmitter + bind receiver
Spring in the transmitter
By default there is a spring at the gas stick which keeps it always in the center position.
Normally this spring of the gas-stick is without function to move the stick infinitely variable. (Instruction of the transmitter - page 21)
If you have already a little bit experience and if you want to fly with vario-height control all the time, you don't need to remove the spring.
If you leave the spring in function so that the Gas-Stick is always in a middle-position you need to enter in the setting (Link) at "Stick neutral point" the middle-position => 127:
Set Stick Mode
The easiest way (also for beginners) is to fly the MikroKopter in Mode2.
Here you have the function "Gas" and "Yaw" on the left control stick, "Nick" and "Roll" on the right control stick.
(Instruction of the transmitter - page 84)
If you fly a different mode over years you can also use it here.
The stick arrangement for the different modes (1-4) and how the various functions of the MikroKopter can be set via the transmitter is described here: Stick-Setup
Adjust transmitter to Stick-Mode2 (or a different mode):
In the opening screen of the transmitter you need to press on SET to enter the settings.
With the arrow keys UP/DOWN you choose the entry Base setup model and with the key SET you open it.
Here you switch to the entry Stick mode and choose it with the SET button (The displayed number is now a dark background).
- With the arrow keys you can set now the desired mode (1-4) and save it with "SET".
- Via the button "ESC" you can switch back.
Channel assignment of the control sticks in Mode2:
- Channel 1 = Gas
- Channel 2 = Roll
- Channel 3 = Nick
- Channel 4 = Yaw
Bind the receiver
Transmitter and receiver have to be bound together, so that the receiver only reacts to that transmitter.
(Instruction of the transmitter - page 69)
To bind the receiver you do as follows:
- When turning on the transmitter you see the message RF ON / OFF. Choose OFF.
The receiver has to be supplied with 5V (i.e via 3-core-wire from the FlightCtrl).
- Press "SET" in the opening screen to get into the settings.
Select "Base setup model" with Up / Down and open it with the button SET.
In that menu pull down with the arrow key to the entry Base Setup Model.
Only if there is already a "BIND", press once SET to get a "n/v".
At the receiver now press and hold down the button "SET":
Receiver GR-12 => hold down "SET" button.
Receiver GR-16 => hold down "SET" button until the red and green LEDs light together (maybe difficult to see that clearly).
Receiver GR-24 => hold down "SET" button until the red and green LEDs light together (maybe difficult to see that clearly).
- Press "SET" within 3 seconds at the transmitter (in the row "RF BIND)
- "Finding" appears in the display for a short time.
- "RF BIND [bind]" appears in the display at success and the green LED lights continously at the receiver.
Set the receiver to sum-signal
The !Mikrokopter needs a so-called !sum-signal. All channels of the receiver are included in it. This makes the wireing a lot easier compared to normal servo-receivers.
After the receiver has been bound to the transmitter you can set the PPM sum-signal:
(Instruction of the transmitter - CH OUTPUT TYPE - page 238)
The receiver has to be supplied with 5V (i.e via 3-core-wire from the FlightCtrl).
Hold down "ESC" at the transmitter for about 2 seconds -> You get into the menu "Telemetry".
Select SETTING & DATA VIEW and open it via the button SET.
The menu RX SERVO TEST will open.
- Switch to the menu "RX SERVO TEST" by pressing "right" 5 times.
- INFO: If you have clicked to far and you see the MK-Menu you can remove the 1-core telemetry plug from the FC to get back to the page "RX SERVO TEST".
In the menu "RX SERVO TEST" you switch to the lower entry CH OUT TYPE.
With the button SET you open that entry and you change from "ONCE" to SUMO (with the arrow keys UP/DOWN).
- Confirm with SET.
- You get to the data field with the number of channels in the sum-signal. Set this to "12" with Up/Down (for 12 channels).
INFO
If you hold down the button (accidentially) at the receiver while connecting, the "SUMO 12" setting will be deleted. This can be also happen if you connect the receiver with a powered up Mikrokopter and hold down the button. In this case you have to set this setting again.
INFO
If you doesn't have a number behind SUMO an older software version is installed in the receiver!
You have to update the receiver. How to update the receiver you can see here: Update
Set servo adjustment
To run the functions on the MikroKopter properly the servo adjustment of the 12 individual channels must reach a range of "0" to "254" (See also later in the KopterTool).
The servo adjustments at the transmitter are pre-set to 100% for all channels. If you leave it in that way you are not able to reach the full servo adjustment.
For that reason you need to set all servo adjustments to 103%.
To set the servo adjustments we proceed as follows:
Press SET in the opening screen to get into the settings.
Select servo adjustment with UP/DOWN and open it with SET.
Switch to the channel (S1-S12) which need to be changed. Use the arrow-key to the right on the percentages for "- travel +" and select SET.
- (Both percentage values are selected at the same time (dark background))
- INFO: If only one percentage value is selected you can toggle/turn through the appropriate switch/potentiometer to the second percentage
Change the percentage value with UP/DOWN to "103%" and press SET to confirm.
In that way you set all 12 channels.
(Instruction of the transmitter - page 90)
ASSIGN CHANNELS
In your transmitter the first four channels are already assigned to the control sticks for the function Gas, Yaw, Nick und Roll.
The remaining channels (5-12) you can assign freely to switches, buttons and potentiometer on your transmitter.
With those channels you can control the functions of the MikroKopter.
(Instruction of the transmitter - page 71)
Before starting with the assignment of the channels you should establish memory for that at your transmitter.
This memory need to be created as Winged Model. The first memory is usually already set as a Winged Model and can be used.
Is that not the case or you need an additional model memory (because you operate more than one Kopter or other models with one transmitter) you can set it as a new Winged Model.
Setting of the channels:
To assign the channels you proceed as follows:
First at all switch all switches to an "OFF"-position (away from you).
Press SET in the opening screen to get into the settings.
Select Control adjust with UP/DOWN and open it with SET.
Choose desired channel with UP/DOWN (i.e. channel 5 => |Input. 5|GL|---| 0%|).
Here now switch with LEFT/RIGHT to the three bars (---) and push SET.
- A display appears "Move desired switch or control adj.".
- Now switch the desired switch (or turn potentiometer).
- Instead of the three bars you will see now the operated switchn.
Repeat now the operations for the remaining channels.
Examples for the channel assignment:
This is an example for the channel assignment. Any other assignment is also possible.
(The first 4 channels for the control are already pre-assigned.)

The HoTT Telemetry data can be logged on a SD card in the HoTT-Transmitter. Just in case you would loose a MikroKopter, you could see the last GPS Position in the Logfile of the Transmitter.
(Graupner grStudio => Log View)
Starting the SD-Logging in the Transmitter
- to start the logging, the "flight time counter" in the transmitter must be started
- under "Flight timers" in the menu of the transmitter you can assign a switch to start the flight timer (see the manual of the Transmitter)
- A small SD-card-Symbol will appear on the LCD when the logging runs
You can start the "flight time counter" with a switch or a stick, but you can not stop it with the same. For this you have to press "ESC".
Setting for a flight simulator or trainer mode
You can also use the transmitter with an flight simulator or for the trainer mode. To use all channels of this transmitter you should change the DSC Output to PPM24.
If you do not change this you can only use the first 5 channels of this transmitter with an flight simulator or for the trainer mode.
In the opening screen of the transmitter you need to press on SET to enter the settings.
With the arrow keys UP/DOWN you choose the entry Base setup model and with the key SET you open it.
Here you switch to the entry DSC Output and choose it with the SET button.

SinglePoint + Fixed/Relative Waypoints save/load with the transmitter
With HoTT remote control you have the option to:
save or load SinglePoint Waypoints during flight
oran to open an already existing Fixed/Relative Waypoints-flight .
How to do this, can be read here: SinglePoint + Fixed/Relative Waypoints
Example: Setting - Download
Modell memory for transmitter
A "ready to use"-setting like above you can download here:
(To enlarge -> click on the image)
After downloading the file (aMK MC-20.mdl) you can copy it directly into a folder "Models/mc-20" on a Micro-SD-Card.
How you import model memories from the Micro-SD-Card into your transmitter can be read in the instruction on page 66 (Chapter: Import SD).
>
INFO:
If you insert an empty Micro-SD-Card into the transmitter and switch it on, automatically the needed directories will be created.
In this model memory is the upper right Flight-Time counter/Flt active. This one is set in that way as soon as the Gas-Stick will be moved upwards the Flight-Time counter starts.
This Flight-Time counter is required so that the GPS position data of the Kopter can be saved on a Micro-SD-Card in your transmitter.
So, if the Kopter is maybe getting lost you still have then the last received coordinates of the Kopter.
Is the Gas-Stick down this counter still continues! (Instruction see page 139)
To stop it you can push the ESC button.
To reset the Flight-Time counter you need to push the UP/DOWN (or LEFT/RIGHT) button to the same time on the right Touch-Pads.
(Instructions of the transmitter - page 138 + 252)
The channels in both model memory are set as you can see here.
If you use this model memory you have to set this functions/channels in the settings of the FlightCtrl.
