Persons, including children, with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge, or not capable to assemble and use safely the Vector unit must not use the Vector unit without supervision or instruction by a responsible person. Operation and use of radio-controlled models needs to be learned! If you have never operated a model of this type before, start carefully and make yourself familiar with the model's reactions to the remote control commands. Proceed responsibly. First, always perform a range and function test on the ground (to do so, hold your model tight), before you use your model. Repeat the test with running motor and with short throttle bursts. Inform yourself before flying your model on which maximum altitude you can fly in the uncontrolled airspace over the starting position and do not exceed it. 34001_HB_V1 Before you start using the remote control model, you have to check the further relevant laws and regulations. These laws you must obey in every case. Pay attention to the possibly different laws of the countries. The insurance is mandatory for all kinds of model operation. If you already have one, so please inform yourself if the operation of the respective model is covered by your insurance. If this is not the case, conclude a special liability insurance policy for models. We recommend to provide the model with a label, where are indicated the name, address, tel. n., E-mail and Insurance N. 7 / 20 So that the copter can be clearly assigned in the event of a crash. Due to safety and licensing reasons (CE), any unauthorized reconstruction and/or modification of the product is prohibited. Only use the components and spare parts that we recommend. Always use matching, original Graupner plug-in connections of the same design and material. Make sure that all of the plug-in connections are tight. When disconnecting the plug-in connections, do not pull the cables. Protect the Vector unit from dust, dirt, moisture and other foreign parts. It must be protected from vibration as well as excessive heat or cold. The models may only be operated remotely in normal outside temperatures such as from -10°C to +55°C. Only operate all your HoTT components using the current software version. If you have questions which cannot be answered by the operating manual, please contact us (contact information see page 3) or another expert in the field. WARNING Safety notes during the use Also while programming, make sure that a connected electric motor cannot accidentally start. Injury risk by the turning propellers! Always remove the propellers when programming. Program always the motors stop switch on the transmitter. (See transmitter manual) Avoid shock and pressure. Check the Vector unit regularly for damages to the housings and cables, specially after a crash of the model. Damaged or wet electronic components, even if re-dried, should no longer be used! Never touch the turning propellers, this can cause injury The propellers must be mounted securely, thrown parts can cause serious injury. Observe the safety notes of the required components. Never fly against people or animals, risk of injury through the propellers 8 / 20 34001_HB_V1 Vector Unit description 11 12 11 10 12 12 10 13 11 10 14 13 10 11 12 13 14 34001_HB_V1 Vector Core, Servo DES 131 with integrated receiver and speed controller Battery connection cable Drive gear to install a motor unit or a servo lever Motor connection socket max. 2A continuous current Receiver antenna Fixture arms + cable (red) - cable (black) Motor mount fixing screw, flat-head screw 1,2 x 3 mm Motor mount Motor Propeller Motor connection plug Drive gear joint 9 / 20 Preparation before use The Vector unit should only be powered by a 1 S LiPo battery Power Pack No. 78101.1. The input voltage of the drive battery is monitored during the flight through the telemetry function of the HoTT transmitter. If the voltage drops under 3.2 V, the warning alarm will be activated in the HoTT transmitter. Stop immediately the use and charge the drive battery! Connecting the battery To switch on the unit connect the drive battery to the battery connection cable (2). Use exclusively the batteries recommended by us. The connectors are reverse polarity protected: note the small chamfers on the sides. Never use force – the connectors should engage easily. Attention If the connection system is connected and forced in the wrong direction, then the connector of the battery connection cable will be ruined. Never connect a battery with voltage higher than 4,2 V DC to the unit! The receiver and the servo would be destroyed. Never connect a battery to the motor socket in the unit! The receiver and the servo would be destroyed. 10 / 20 34001_HB_V1 Connecting the motor unit Use exclusively the motor units recommended by us. The connectors are reverse polarity protected: note the small chamfers on the sides. Never use force – the connectors should engage easily. Attention If the connection system is connected and forced in the wrong direction, then the connector of the motor connection cable will be ruined. Never connect a battery with voltage higher than 4,2 V DC to the motor unit! The motor will be damaged. Binding the unit To be able to establish a connection to a HoTT transmitter, the unit must at first be "bound" to "its" Graupner-HoTT 2.4 RF module (transmitter). This process is known as “binding”. Binding is only necessary once for each combination of receiver / RF module. However, binding can be repeated at any time if you wish; for example, if you switch transmitters. Read also the "BINDING" section in the manual of your HoTT transmitter! 1. Switch on transmitter 2. Connect the drive battery to the unit. The unit is already in binding mode. 3. Start the binding process in your HoTT transmitter (see transmitter manual) 4. The successful binding process is confirmed by the transmitter 12 / 20 If the binding for this transmitter/receiver combination has already been performed, the model can be used immediately. 34001_HB_V1 Successful binding process Unsuccessful binding process Binding several units If the binding process was successful, the unit can be controlled through the transmitter. If the binding process has been unsuccessful, repeat the binding process with at least 1 meter distance between transmitter and receiver. This function is described in detail in the manual of the HoTT transmitter which support this function. The process is described in the section "Bindign several receivers". This function is important for model pilots who want to build and fly their very own models or fun models which require more than two channels. The use of the Vector Unit is in this sense very versatile. In the unit there are up to 12 channels available for channel mapping. Installing and installing possibilities of the propellers While installing the propellers note: Push the propeller on the motor shaft without using violence Hold the motor unit from the motor mount The turning direction of the motor CW or CCW The propeller profile (curvature of the propeller) The turn direction of the propeller The incisions on the propeller The air flow arrow Sketch seen from the front of the propellers! CAUTION Risk of injury by rotating propeller (propellers) in case the motor (motors) starts. Always unplug the connector to the battery before working on the propeller (propellers). While removing the propeller note: Pull out the propeller Hold the motor from the motor case, not from the motor mount 34001_HB_V1 13 / 20 No. 34001.30 No. 34001.31 B1 A2 CCW 14 / 20 CW CW CCW 34001_HB_V1 V.1 CCW CW 34001_HB_V1 V.2 CCW CW V.3 CW CCW CW CCW V.5 V.6 1 CCW 2 2 CW 1 2 CCW 1 1 CW 2 V.4 15 / 20 Receiver settings for experienced The receiver can be programmed with a suitable HoTT transmitter or in connection with the SMART-BOX. Receiver settings menu RECEIVER 1.0< > >ALARM VOLT 3,2V ALARM TEMP: 70°C >CYCLE: 20ms SUMD at C6: No Sensor at C5 No LANGUAGE: English The receiver setup menu appears in the “Telemetry“ menu under SETTINGS / DISPLAYS or if you are using a SMART-BOX under SETTING & DATAVIEW. How to access this menu is described in the operating instructions supplied with your transmitter or Smart-Box. Low voltage warning (ALARM VOLT): If the receiver voltage or the external voltage at channel 5 falls below the set value, a low-voltage warning is generated by the transmitter's RF module in the form of a "general alarm tone" (regular beeping at a rate of approx. one beep per second) or the "receiver voltage" speech output message. Temperature warning (ALARM TEMP): If the receiver temperature exceeds the set temperature, a warning is generated by the transmitter’s RF module in the form of a "general alarm tone" (regular beeping at a rate of approx. one beep per second) or the "receiver temperature" speech output message. Cycle time (CYCLE): If your system is used exclusively with digital servos, you can set a cycle time (frame rate) of 10 ms. If your system includes some or uses exclusively analogue servos, you should always select 20 ms, as many analogue servos cannot process the higher frame rate and may respond by "jittering" or "growling". HoTT sum signal (SUMD): This function cannot be used. Channel 5 (C5): This function cannot be used. 16 / 20 34001_HB_V1 Free mixers FREE MIXER < > >MIXER: FROM CHANNEL: TO CHANNEL: TRIM: +0% TRV - : +100% TRV + : +100% Note If you have already programmed mixer functions in the “Wing mixers” or “Free mixers” menu of your HoTT transmitter, you must ensure that those mixers do not overlap with those available in this menu! MIXER: Up to five mixers can be contemporaneously programmed. You can switch between Mixer 1, Mixer 2, … and mixer 5 in the “Mixer” line. The following settings only affect the mixer selected in this line. FROM CHANNEL: The signal source (or source channel) is mixed in to the target channel (TO CHANNEL) with a programmable amount. The method of setting up the values is analogous to the “Free mixers” menu in HoTT transmitters. Flying, assembling and experimenting with the Vector Unit Ground ideas The Vector Unit has been conceived for simple airplane models, which are basically made as free-flight models. With the unit also launch gliders or models which have not been produced for flying as remote controlled models can be controlled, they just have not to be heavier than 50 g. Foam launch gliders. Rubber motor models. Small balsa models. Everything which an RC model fan can conceive 34001_HB_V1 17 / 20 The small 1 x 1 to install the unit While installing the unit note: 1. Mark the centre of gravity of the glider or model and install battery and unit accordingly. This is important to let the model fly properly by itself with the installed unit 2. The unit must be installed so that the motor is 1-2° upward when installed as pulling motor, when installed as pushing motor it should be installed 1-2° downward this is important: to let the unit have a little ascending elevator effect while accelerating. to let the model not to fly downward while accelerating 3. The pushing or pulling point on the drive gear on which the motor thrust acts must be always at least 10-20mm before the center of gravity (according to the wing geometry) or just after the wing front edge (according to the wing geometry) see LEO No.13301 must always be upon the wing or wide under it see Hexe No.13304 4. The airflow of the propeller must be limited as less as possible, this is important: so that not so much thrust is required to let the model fly (flight time increases) so that the controls reacts well 5. Fix the unit 18 / 20 by the fixture arms through screws on each side with a strip of adhesive tape with contact glue, at best UHU-por No.596. 34001_HB_V1 Tips to fly with the unit While flying with the unit note: 1. Without throttle you cannot control the rudder. 2. Set for the first flight a not too big rudder travel, start with 15-20% of the normal servo travel. 3. If the model starts to rear up, reduce the throttle control or, when it is in the apex of the rearing up, use the rudder control to fly a curve. 4. If 3. does not work and the model cannot be controlled well the unit angle (motor inclination) or the center of gravity must be checked and set again. 5. Note the torque of the motor: You have to trim the unit accordingly. To turn in the torque direction is easier, less travel is required. To turn against the torque direction is harder, more travel is required.
