TELEMETRY : GPS [SPEED] Displaying data from the speed
The speed screen displays and sets the speed data from an
SBS-01G (GPS sensor) sold separately.
The speed of the aircraft during ight can be displayed.
After flight, the maximum speed during flight can be
viewed. Because this speed is based on position data from
a GPS satellite, the ground speed is displayed instead of
air speed. Consequently, with a head wind, the displayed
speed decreases and with a tail wind, the displayed speed
increases.
*The GPS sensor is necessary, and is sold separately. Mount and
connect the sensor in accordance with the sensor instruction manual.
*It cannot be used in FASST mode and S-FHSS mode.
*Only receiver voltage and EXT voltage can be used in
FASSTest12CH mode.
*The FASSTest18CH mode can use all the telemetry functions.
*A GPS sensor must be installed in the aircraft.
●This indicates the receiving accuracy

*Speed alarm precaution
Since the GPS speed sensor displays the ground speed, it
cannot be used as a stall alarm. For example, an aircraft that
stalls at 50km/h will stall if the tailwind is 5km/h or greater
even through 55km/h is displayed by ground speed. In
addition, with an aircraft that will disintegrate in midight at
400km/h at an over-speed alarm, when the headwind reaches
30km/h the airplane will disintegrate in midair due to over
speeding even at a ground speed of 370km/h.

SENSOR Various telemetry sensors setting
This screen registers the telemetry sensors used
with the transmitter. When only one of a certain
type of sensor is used, this setting is unnecessary
and the sensor can be used by simply connecting it
to the S.BUS2 port of the transmitter.
When using 2 or more of the same kind of
sensor, they must be registered here.
● Select [SENSOR] in the Linkage menu and
access the setup screen shown below by
touching the RTN button.
● As shown in the table below, an altimeter requires 3 contiguous slots and a GPS sensor
requires 8 contiguous slots. In addition, since the GPS (SBS-01G) start slots are 8, 16, and 24.
<Assignable slot >*Altimeter, GPS, and other sensors that display a large amount of data require multiple slots.
*Depending on the type of sensor, the slot numbers that can be allocated may be limited.
[What is a slot?]
Servos are classified by CH, but sensors are
classified in units called “slot”. There are slots
from No. 1 to No. 31.
Altitude sensors, GPS sensors and other data
sensor units may use multiple slots.
Using a sensor which uses two or more slots,
the required number of slots is automatically
assigned by setting up a start slot.
When 2 or more of the same kind of sensor are
used, the sensors themselves must allocate unused
slots and memorize that slot.
*3 slots of altitude sensor are used.
*8 slots of GPS sensor are used.

TRAINER Trainer system starting and setting
T18SZ trainer system makes it possible for the
instructor to chose which channels and operation
modes that can be used in the students transmitter.
The function and rate of each channel can be
set, the training method can also be matched to
the student's skill level. Two transmitters must be
connected by an optional Trainer Cord, and the
Instructors’ transmitter should be programmed for
trainer operation, as described below.
When the Instructor activates the trainer switch,
the student has control of the aircraft (if MIX/
FUNC/NORM mode is turned on, the Instructor
can make corrections while the student has control).
When the switch is released the Instructor regains
control. This is very useful if the student gets the
aircraft into an undesirable situation.
● Setting data are stored to model data.
● Student rate can be adjusted at MIX/FUNC/
NORM mode.
● Activated student channels can be selected
by switches.
NOTE: This trainer system can be used in the
following manner;
1. With the T18SZ transmitter and a conventional
transmitter, if the channel order is different,
it is necessary to match the channel order
before using this function.
You can select the channel of input data
from student's transmitter in the "FUNC" or
"MIX" mode.
2. When the T18SZ is used as the instructor’s
transmitter, set the modulation mode of the
student’s transmitter to PPM.
If being used as the student, T18SZ can be
connected to the instructor's transmitter which
the PPM mode as the student's modulation
mode is required. T18SZ always sends PPM
mode signal from the trainer jack.
(In the case of student's transmitters other than
2.4 GHz)
3. Be sure that all channels work correctly in
both transmitters before ying.

PROG. MIXES Programmixingwhichcanbefreelycustomized.Upto10
mixingscanbeusedforeachcondition.[Allmodeltypes]
Programmable mixing may be used to correct
undesired tendencies of the aircraft, and it may also
be used for unusual control congurations. Mixing
means that the motion of a command channel,
called the "master," is added to the motion of the
mixed channel, called "slave."
You may choose to have the Master's trim added
to the Slave channel response ("Trim" setting). The
mixing curve can be changed so that the undesired
tendencies can be corrected effectively by setting
the EXP1/EXP2/POINT modes. The Delay
function can be programmed for each rate. The
Delay is used to change the rate smoothly when
switching mixes. You may dene Mixing ON/OFF
switch, control or you may choose to have mixing
remaining on all the time. Mixing ON/OFF delay
time can be adjusted.
The Programmable mixing includes a powerful
link function, which allows Programmable mixing
to be linked with the special mixing functions, or
with other programmable mixing functions. The
link function can be set up for Master and Slave
channel individually.
The slave channel AFR mode (STK-STK mode)
may be selected, where the slave channel AFR and
D/R settings are observed when Link function is
set. The knob for ne tuning can be set up for every
mixing circuit. (Fine tune function)
The programmable mixing (in mixing mode)
STK to STK mixing function can be used even
when the Master is a stick or other hardware.

TRIM MIX 1/2 [Correspondingmodeltype]:Glider,2aileronsormore
These functions call the ailerons, elevators, and
aps (camber aps, brake aps) trim offset rates
preset according to the ight state.
The amount of ailerons, elevator, and flaps
(camber ap, brake ap) trim offset can be set to
a switch.
As an example Trim Mix 1 can be set up for
launching, with speed aps and ailerons dropped,
and a slight amount of up elevator. Trim mix
2 can be used for high speed flying, with both
ailerons and speed aps reexed slightly, and a bit
of down elevator.
The trim functions can be activated during
ight by setting a switch. To prevent sudden trim
changes when switching ight conditions, a delay
can be set to provide a smooth transition between
the two. Trim Mix 2 will have priority over Trim
Mix 1.

AILEVATOR [Correspondingmodeltype]:Airplane/glider,V-Tail
(Effective only when 2 servos used at the elevators)
This function improves the operating
performance of the roll axis by operating the
elevators as ailerons.
Ailevator is where each elevator in a standard
(conventional) or v-tail moves independently, like
ailerons on a wing. In addition to each elevator side
moving up and down together, each side moves in
opposite directions when moving as an ailevator.
On a V-tail, this is also known as a ruddervator,
as they can serve the same purpose. Typically,
both ailevator and ailerons are coupled together to
maximize roll performance, especially on larger
wingspan planes.

WINGLET [Correspondingmodeltype]:Airplane/glider,winglet
This function adjusts the left and right rudder
angles of airplanes with winglets.
Winglets are used to improve the efficiency of
aircraft lowering the lift-induced drag caused by
wingtip vortices. The winglet is a vertical or angled
extension at the tips of each wing.
Winglets work by increasing the effective aspect
ratio wing without adding greatly to the structural
stress and hence necessary weight of its structure
- an extension of wing span would also permit
lowering of induced drag, though it would cause
parasitic drag and would require boosting the
strength of the wing and hence its weight - there
would come a point at which no overall useful
saving would be made. A winglet helps to solve this
by effectively increasing the aspect ratio without
adding to the span of the wing.

show the following message. The converted
data are copied to the internal memory of
the T18SZ. Hence, if the T18SZ does not have
free spaces of its internal memory, converts
must fail.
5. The converter can accept model data
made by T12FG or FX-30 with the latest
software (Ver.3.0) only. If you try to convert
model data made by old version software,
the converter must fail to convert and show
the following error message. If this message
is shown, do the following procedure to
update the model data in order to avoid
this limitation.
(a) First, update a T12FG or FX-30 to the latest software (Ver. 3.0).
(b) Load the model data failed to convert into the T12FG or FX-30
with the latest software, and the model data should be updated
to the latest format.
(c) Save the updated model data to a SD card.
(d) Retry to convert the updated model data on a T18SZ.
* When SD card cannot be recognized, it may be able to be used
if it reformats by SD formatter offered from SD Association.
SD formatter is downloadable from SD Association (https://
www.sdcard.org/).
