Has anyone got any thoughts on the above???

Barry, I don't have a CG10, but I suspect that the position 1 is really the center position so adjusting the end travel won't change this. What you need to do is offset the center position so that position 1 gives you the correct throw or alternativelly if the tx has servo curves then adjust the servo curve to get the correct travel in each position. I would have thought the CG10 has both of these options.

Frank, thanks for your input, I have searched the menu,and if there is those functions in the Tx, I can not find them.

Barry

Frank, you were almost correct, I contacted Futaba Support and they set me straight:-

Move the switch to centre poss. adjust the lingage to the angle you want, then move switch to off and ajust that position of the flaps by that end point, move to full and adjust that position to the required level by that end point

easy when you know how, it should be in the manual

thanks

Barry

Glad you've got it sorted, but I'm surprised the CG10 doesn't give you the option to adjust the servo center position so you can utilise the full throw of the servo if required.

Thx, I have the 8fg super as well, which does have that, but I'm not that cluey on using it yet, the 10GC is much easier to program ... for me

Hi all,

I have a 10CG and am having trouble setting the f/s...I can get into the F/S menu easily enough which as I have only 7 channel recievers only allows for the 3 options

NORM

F/S

When I high light F/s there is a fiqure of 85% shown below but I do not seem able to highlight this number to reduce it...When it is on F/S by the way and I switch off the tranny it goes to full bore....

any ideas please

Cheers

I've only just "discovered" the failsafe function on my 10CG. When you're in the F/S menu, and you've selected F/S, you then can only set the throttle when you're using a 7-channel receiver. You do this by holding down the menu dial with the throttle stick in whatever position you want to be its F/S position.

With mine, putting the throttle to zero resulted in the F/S setting showing 15%, instead of 0% which I expected. But anyway, when I checked it by switching off my trannie with the receiver still switched on, the model's throttle went to zero.
