IN TI For the version S5012.FPV will be required a video goggle or an FPV monitor to fly in FPV. Receiver The transmitter is already completely set to work properly with the Alpha 110 Quadrocopter. To program some parameters, refer to the section "Receiver settings". FO PR Installing the battery in the copter Fix the battery in the battery case. Place the battery so that the Alpha 110 Quadrocopter’s center of gravity is in the middle. Receiver’s binding SE The included receiver is already bound to the MZ-8 transmitter in the version S 5012.RTF. In the other versions without included transmitter, you can bind the copter receiver with your favorite HoTT transmitter. Thereto read the manual of your HoTT transmitter. The copter receiver is already in binding mode as soon as it is switched on. Then siply start the binding process in the transmitter. SI ,D Binding with the MZ-8 transmitter If you want to bind the copter with the MZ-8 transmitter push the "LED" button on the transmitter when the copter is switched on. If the binding process was successful the status LEDs will light red on the transmitter and green on the copter. TE ST VE Range test The integrated range test reduces the transmitter output so that you can perform a function test at a distance between 5 and about 10 m. Perform the range test for the Graupner-HoTT system according to the following instructions. It is useful to have an assistant to help you with the range test. Switch on the transmitter and the copter then wait until the green LED on the copter lights. You are now able to monitor control movements. 14 / 28 S5012_Alpha_110_jh_V1 Place the model on a flat surface (cement, mowed lawn or ground) so that the receiver antennas are at least 15 cm above the ground. It may therefore be necessary to place a support underneath the model during the test. Hold the transmitter at hip level at a slight distance from your body. IN TI You can start the range test process by pushing simultaneously the "SPEED + SNAP" buttons. The red status LED on the transmitter will start to blink quickly and a signal tone is emitted twice each two seconds. PR After the 90 second range test, the transmitter switches back to full output, and the signal tone stops. You can stop the range test in every moment by pushing the POWER button. FO During the 90 seconds, walk away from the model and move the sticks. If you detect an interruption in the link within a range of about 5 - 10 m at any time, attempt to reproduce it. SE Move further away from the model until it does not respond perfectly. Move further away from the model until it does not respond perfectly. At this location, wait for the remainder of the test period with the still operable model. The model should still react to control commands once the range test is finished. If this is not 100 % the case, do not use the system and contact our Service department. SI ,D Perform a range test before each flight, and simulate all control movements that could occur during the flight. In order to guarantee a safe model operation, the range must always be at least 5 - 10 m on the ground. Attention! Never start a range test on the transmitter during normal model operation! TE ST VE Factory reset If it was necessary to erase all the values saved in the copter, you can make a factory reset. Therefor proceed as follows: Attention! all model memories will be deleted! Push all the trims to the inside and then switch the transmitter on. In this way all the saved values will be deleted. S5012_Alpha_110_jh_V1 15 / 28 Example flight control MODE 1 Climb - Sink IN TI mz-8 POWER SPEED SNAP RECORD PR LED SE FO Turn on its own axis mz-8 POWER SPEED SNAP RECORD SI ,D LED Roll to the right and left TE ST VE mz-8 POWER SPEED LED 16 / 28 SNAP RECORD S5012_Alpha_110_jh_V1 Forward and backward IN TI mz-8 POWER SPEED SNAP RECORD FO PR LED Auto-flip function SE The copter can autonomously perform a roll by pushing a button if, while flying it in Attitude mode, you push the neutralizing control stick (the opposite to the throttle stick), a quick acoustic signal is emitted for 5 seconds. If during these 5 seconds you move the nick or roll control more than 50%, the Quadrocopter performs autonomously a 360° turn (Flip) in the direction of the control that you moved. The copter cannot always come back to its prior position, eventually you may have to correct its position after the roll. Through the installed camera and the video transmitter is emitted a video signal. The transmission starts as soon as you connect the copter battery. Scan the transmission signal of the copter in your video goggles or video monitor. SPEED If you push the "SPEED" button you can switch between video transmission channels during the flight. The "SNAP" and "RECORD" buttons are functionally only in the model Alpha 150Q, because this model is equipped for video recording on an SD memory card. TE ST VE SI ,D Camera function by version S 5012.FPV S5012_Alpha_110_jh_V1 17 / 28 Installing the propellers CAUTION Risk of injury through rotating propellers by motors start. Always unplug the connector to the battery before working on the propellers. IN TI Install the propellers as shown in the picture below. Pay attention to install the proper propeller to each motor. The propeller rotation sense is written on the propeller (R/L)! The image represents the copter seen from the top. PR white, R+L (front 1+2) / red, R+L (back 3+4) 2 = Counter-clockwise motor propeller (.L) propeller (.R) FO 1 = Clockwise motor 4 = Counter-clockwise motor 3 = Clockwise motor propeller (.R) propeller (.L) TE ST VE SI ,D SE 18 / 28 S5012_Alpha_110_jh_V1 First flight Choose a free area for your first flight. Select first always the Attitude mode because so the copter is easier to control and the throttle course is different in Rate mode. Take firstly confidence with the flight attitude of the Alpha 110Q. Proceed carefully and responsibly. IN TI FO PR Initialization by switching on Initialization of the gyro Once the model has been switched on, the gyro immediately becomes active but still needs to be initialized. To initialize the gyro, keep your model still when you switch it on. The calibration process can only be performed when the receiver is absolutely still. After 3 seconds in still position you will hear beeps emitted by all motors. The signal tone can vary depending on the esc model. These "wiggles" signal that initialization has been successful and that calibration is complete. Always wait until the calibration process has finished before starting to fly the model. The motors will not start until the calibration is complete. CAUTION If the copter is used for long time (>1min) in Acro 3D mode the receiver can loose its position information and the copter can move itself out of control. Before switching back to Attitude mode, hover the copter for 30 s or land it in Rate mode, so that the receiver can reset the position. SE The auto-flip function allows you to flip your copter in a very easy way. It is essential that you control in Attitude mode (function not allowed in Rate mode). The auto-flip function must be controlled by channel 6. For this program a 2-way switch (e. g. SW1) in the transmitter control menu on channel 6 with the following values: Auto-flip function on = Channel 6 > 110% Auto-flip function off = Channel 6 < 110% Activate the switch and within 5 sec move the nick or roll stick to more than 50% of its course, then the copter makes autonomously a flip in the selected direction. After the flip it is possible to have some little position movements (<10°). TE ST VE SI ,D Special function channel 6 Receiver setting (only possible in connection with HoTT transmitter with display) S5012_Alpha_110_jh_V1 19 / 28 Receiver's base settings Quadro x, Quadro +, Tri L, Tri R Here it must always be selected the setting Quadro X. Channel connections to the receiver for the different copter types. Connect the speed controllers of the motors to the receiver following the proper scheme (see next page "Connection scheme of different copter types"). In case of tricopter use only digital servos for servo 4. Motor direction seen from the top of the copter! PR Type IN TI Step 2 Basic settings MODE ESC settings for the learning of the controller the receiver K1 signal will be passed directly to the controller. FO Normal is set for ‘normal‘ multicopter (without reverse rotation). SE Acro 3D setting for multicopter whose speed controllers are equipped with reverse rotation. (Acro flight mode) Note: For safety reason the Type and Mode changes take effect after switching off and on (only for this parameter). CAUTION Risk of injury by rotating propellers when motors are running. The motors can start while switching from Attitude to Rate mode. Hold the throttle stick in central position when you switch. Install the propellers only as very last operation before flight. Start and land always in Attitude mode. Note that in Rate mode the throttle curve has different reaction. (See sketch on the right) Example: If the throttle stick is down when you turn in rate mode, the motors run at once fully backward.

TRV -30% 0% Offs 0% SYM Optional: If the motor off area is not desired in Attitude mode then you can reduce the lower servo travel to -70%. Thus the reduction has no effect on the rate mode, program the reduction through a switchable free mixers. In this mixer the reduction is active only in Attitude mode.

Fro zuto M1 M2 M3 M4 M5 Throttle curve in Acro 3D mode Motor idle ASY TE ST VE SI ,D ONESHOT S5012_Alpha_110_jh_V1 Oneshot is a quick communication protocol between receiver and speed controller and should only be activated if the speed controllers allow this function. It allows the speed controllers to communicate much faster with receiver. So the motors react faster to receiver controls. The motor output signal is now shorter, about 125µs-250µs, instead of before PWM (1000µs – 2000µs). CALIBR. POSITION With Calibr. Position the acceleration sensors can be calibrated so that in attitude mode with stick and trim neutral, the copter is precisely horizontally aligned. For this purpose, it is simply placed on absolute level surface and set the value to Yes. After a moment, it jumps back to No and the calibration is done. Do not forget to store disabling the field! 21 / 28 Axis assignment Step 3 Axis assignment in the gyro Setup: Setup: Yes/No Assignment of the gyros and their operating direction. In the receiver’s “Axis assign” menu, go to the “Setup” option and set it to “Setup: Yes”. Now assign the axes as follow: On the transmitter, briefly set the roll command fully to the right; the roll axis is highlighted. Roll the copter more than 45 degrees to the right the identified axis with the required prefix is displayed, the field is no longer highlighted and identification of this axis is complete. IN TI PR Now do the same for nick: on the transmitter, briefly set the nick command so that it is fully forward. Roll the copter more than 45 degrees forwards; the axis is displayed, the field is no longer highlighted and identification of this axis is complete. SE FO Finally complete the procedure for yaw: on the transmitter, briefly set the yaw command fully to the right. Turn the copter so that the nose turns more than 45 degrees to the right; the axis is displayed, the field is no longer highlighted and identification of this axis is complete. The gyros and operating directions have now been assigned. Now check to make sure that the operating directions are correct. To do this remove the propeller of the copters and give approximately a quarter throttle, all motors are running at the same speed. TE ST VE SI ,D Tilt the Copter in Attitude mode so that its nose is facing downwards the front motors must turn faster than back ones. Tilt the Copter in Attitude mode to one side the motors of the side, in witch you tilt the model, must turn faster then the motors on the other side. 22 / 28 S5012_Alpha_110_jh_V1 Roll and Nick setting For Attitude and Rate mode: ROLL/NICK P Set this parameter in steps of 5 higher and higher, until a medium-speed overshoot occurs. Then go some steps back in order to prevent the soar up climb in case of full throttle. ROLL/NICK D IN TI Step 4 Optional setting for Roll and Nick Now adjust well to the D component in steps of 5, until the Copter engages exactly on nick and roll. A too high value leads to very rapid oscillations. DAMPING FO The damping factor should be set as low as possible, but as high as necessary, so that the PID control can operate optimally and the setting can be increased at best. If you do not get vibrations away with the PID settings, then change the damping of 1 step and test whether the setting works better or worse. Recommended settings: PR SE For Racecopter with fast controllers and 5-6 inch props: 1 - 2 For copters with fast controllers and 8 inch propellers: 2 ROLL FACTOR % Copter with bigger propellers: 2 or higher. Set the Roll setting as percent value of the overall gain. For symmetric Copters the value can be 100. If, because of its gravity center, the Copter is more agile on the Roll axis than on the Nick axis, then you can change here the roll factor. In the Graupner ALPHA RACE 250 Q this value is set about 65%. TE ST VE SI ,D POWER2SENS.: Very strong drives can lead to oscillating at full throttle. This parameter allows you to set a kind of gyro suppression. Higher values result in an increased gyro suppression towards full throttle. Only for attitude mode ROLL/NICK I Set the I component of the Attitude mode. At too low values of Copter swings slowly. If it stops after a roll or pitch command and “oscillates”, the value must be reduced. AGILITY Agility determines at what speed (yaw rate) a new position is occupied. S5012_Alpha_110_jh_V1 23 / 28 Only for rate mode R/N rate I Sets the I component of the rotation in rate mode. At too low values of Copter swings slowly. If it stops after a roll or pitch command and “oscillates”, the value must be reduced. IN TI RATE: Sets the max. potential rate of rotation in Rate mode. Multicopter Yaw settings Default setting: +45 The P factor is responsible for the harder snap to yaw. Higher values result in a faster stop. At too high P-values the copter starts to “swing”. In such cases, the value must be reduced again. FO Yaw P - Factor PR Default setting: +15 SE Yaw I - Factor The I-factor ensures constant rotations.
