    In this video we take a look at how the channels ended up being called elevator, aileron, rudder, gear and throttle and why you sometimes see the controls called roll, pitch, yaw, mode and throttle.
    You can see more about PWM, PPM and S-Bus by watching • RC Quick Tip - PWM, PP...

    Thank you so much for your wonderful videos, they are always so informative and interesting. As a side note, in 1975, I purchased a pulse width 2-channel RC Radio second hand. How it worked was there were two servos connected to the elevator and rudder and they actually "pulsed" quickly back and forth full range while turned on. When you moved your elevator up/down or rudder left/right, they still pulsed but instead of moving from side to side, they fluttered quickly in conjunction to the stick. You used a small motor with a small fuel tank to haul up the model and when it ran out of gas, you could fly it down. It worked rather well albeit a tad funny looking with both rudder and elevator flapping at the start but once you started flying, you couldn't notice it. The radio had two sticks, one only going up/down and the other left/right. It was my introduction to the hobby, as I said, it was 1975 and I was fifteen. Thank you again for this new introduction to the hobby, Cheers. Buddy

    I am sorry for using this comment to ask a question but couldn't really find a better way. First of tall - thank you, your videos have been great help and basicaly tought me to programm pretty much everything I want to do with my Taranis. My question is whether you could take the time to make an F5J tutorial and how to properly configure electro gliders? People use the left stick for camber and reflex, mixing that with flight modes. I would love to see a tutorial on how to properly set things. Thanks in advance!

      +Painless360 No, I'm just a subscriber who guy excited about this video from its title. Your videos are the bomb. It's like one stop shopping, everything you need all in one place with continuity between videos that are organized into playlists. Maybe you could follow up this video with another video dedicated to the history of RC helicopter transmitter terminology.

    Hi there - very informative and thankyou. I'm looking for a way configure a switch that overides the throttle by say 3%. So if the throttle was at 50, or 80, or 100%, then by flicking the assigned switch, the throttle would change to 53, 83 or 103% respectively. Hope you can help ! - note im a newbie, and looking to apply this to EdgeTX in a Radiomaster Pocket

    Hi again, on Radiomaster Pocket with Edgetx, can you help me setup failsafe for the throttle, so at no time during battery connect, or disconnect, channel 3 (throttle, or rather a winch in this case as I’m using on an RC yacht), exceeds the centre point of travel.

    what I mean is... after going thru the radio stick and slider calibration on the taranis... and I look at the channel monitor screen, sticks centered... most are on zero.. elevator is reading -3... I know I can zero it using a trim switch, but is there a way to "zero" it in the radio... so that its reads zero without moving my trim switch.. thanks, bob

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      The calibration should take care of that, I've not seen that before - anything in the forums?

    • @ridgehawk1
      @ridgehawk1 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      well... after looking closer.. it's not -3... it's - 0.3... i'm sure that's not something to be concerned about. they all blink around a bit.. thanks...

    I'm having a problem calibrating my taranis.. I go thru the calibration but my elevator channel only goes to +97.4, and at center it reads -3.. I know I saw a video on how to correct this... but damned if I can find it... sorry for filling your comments with questions! if it makes you feel any better.. I am a Pateron now! Thanks, Bob

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Depends on what you mean by calibration. There is a way in the menu to calibrate the throw of all of the switches and controls on the radio (you can find the process in the video where we add a 6 position switch to the Taranis) but that only needs to be done once.

      At the top of the radio. you mention it at 2:08. there are 6 x switch. They don't have a seperate channel (i think)

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Depends on the radio but a lot of the earlier radios used them to control Dual-Rates on the flight controls, a few were used to control things like the flight modes and GEAR. Happy flying!

    • @slagsleutel
      @slagsleutel 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ok, so all those switches manipulated the signal from a channel to the receiver. And in the radio you can enter what the switch must do ? For example you can program all the switches for 1 channel ???

    • @Painless360
      @Painless360  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      That depends on the radio. Newer radios like the Taranis let you do anything with the switches (literally!) but older radios, like the DX7 we are looking at here 'lock' the functions to make the radio easier to program for a newbie but that does limit what it can do..
      Hope that makes sense. Why so you ask?
