MxSW[09] Mixer alarm no longer sounds when mixer
is permanently switched on
The indicator which warns of active mixers when the
transmitter is switched on has now been modified. Mixer
functions which have not been assigned a mixer switch
in the MxSW[09] menu, i.e. which are permanently swit-
ched "ON", do not generate an alarm sound when the
transmitter is switched on. The following mixer functions
are removed from the alarm function:
Glider 5 program
Airbrake-elevator, airbrake-elevator, butterfly
Glider 4 program
Airbrake-elevator, flap-elevator, butterfly
Glider 2 program
Airbrake-elevator, flaperon-elevator
Acro menu
Throttle pre-select 1 & 2, snap roll 1-4
Heli program
inverted flight, nose-in flight

TRAI[37] New trainer mode with individual function
transfer
One of the most interesting innovations in the new V3.1
software is the change to individual function transfer in
trainer mode.
With the V3.1 software the transmitters are linked
together in such a way that the stick information from the
pupil transmitter runs through the programmed mixer
functions of the teacher transmitter. This makes it possi-
ble to use a simple 4-channel pupil transmitter to control
complex models.
All 8 channels of the pupil transmitter can be transferred,
so that special functions such as collective pitch trim and
gyro sensitivity in a helicopter, or aero-tow release and
camber-changing flaps in a glider, can still be practised
by the pupil.
The familiar trainer "mix" mode from Version 3.0, in
which the teacher can override the pupil's commands
without transferring control completely, is still retained in
the new software.
In trainer mode the pupil transmitter's trims are active,
which means that the pupil can practise trimming out a
model. The following stick assignments: throttle right/left,

direction of effect of the throttle stick (forward/back for
full throttle), can now be selected via the corresponding
menu points on the pupil transmitter.
It is now also possible to set reduced control travel (D/R)
or exponential (EXPO) on the pupil's transmitter, inde-
pendently of the settings of the teacher transmitter.
Viewed overall, the trainer system represents an ideal
set of facilities for the inexperienced model pilot to learn
the art of controlling models in a safe way.
All the functions described in this section are available
provided that the pupil transmitter is fitted with a compa-
tible trainer module. This applies to the F, FC, Field
Force and Skysport series of radio control systems, but
not to earlier robbe systems (Mars, Promars, Terra Top
etc.).
Note: the pupil transmitter must be a PPM (FM) type; if
it is a PCM transmitter, it must be set to PPM (FM)
modulation for trainer operations.

ATV [14] Flight mode transfer delay
When you program a smooth transition from one flight
mode to another (Delay COND), the transmitter sets a
(variable) reduction in servo speed, and in the earlier
software deliberate control commands were also slowed
during the transition period. As a result the maximum
theoretical delay was not usable in practice. With the
V3.1 software normal control speed is retained in full
during the transition. This means that you can safely set
the transition delay to the maximum value, and at any
time override the process with immediate effect.

REVO[61] Direction of Revo-Mix adjustment can be
selected using cursor keys
The method of working of this menu has been modified,
and you can now use the cursor keys to move the cur-
sor to the UP and DOWN parameters, instead of having
to move the collective pitch stick. This means that you
can correct the settings with the motor running.

Flight mode indicated in home display
The current flight mode is now also displayed in the stan-
dard (home) display, so you can check at any time which
flight mode is currently active.
