Model Setup Functions
Introduction to the Eclipse 7 System
Congratulations! You now own a Hitec Eclipse 7, an extremely versatile R/C system that may be effectively used by
both beginning and master pilots. The transmitter may be programmed for airplanes, gliders, or helicopters, all with
special mixing functions, so it can accommodate virtually any model configuration. You can store programming for
seven different models in this powerful system! The transmitter will remember all of your settings for each of your
different models forever - no backup battery is ever needed. With programmable shift, it can be used with all PPM/FM
receiver models, even other brands!
The system pushbuttons allow rapid data input into the easy-to-read LCD display. With its electronic digital trims,
you'll never lose your trim positions again, because they stay at the same place you left them!
Standard programming features include servo reversing for all channels, end point adjust on all channels, dual rates,
and exponential. Pre-programmed functions and programmable mixers allow you to use the system for any type of
model you can imagine. For those learning to fly, the transmitter has "buddy-box" capability (a second transmitter
may be connected for training by an instructor pilot with an optional trainer cord). The Eclipse 7 menus even have the
advanced "flight condition" settings found in other radios costing hundreds of dollars more in all its menus!!
The extensive preprogrammed mixing features for aircraft include flaperon (dual aileron servos), V-tail, elevon (for
flying-wing models), landing settings, throttle cut, aileron rudder mixing, and elevator flap. Five programmable
mixers for custom functions are also provided.
For sailplanes, you find the following custom programming for competition and sport models with two or four wing
servos: crow mixing for spot landings, flap aileron mixing, aileron flap, elevator flap, aileron rudder,
flap elevator, two sets of switchable offsets for launching and speed, V-tail, aileron differential, and five
programmable mixers. The second aileron is on channel 5, so you can use the system with ultralight five-channel
receivers without any problems!
Helicopter features include five-point pitch and throttle curves, high and low revolution mixing, throttle cut, throttle
hold, gyro settings, and rudder throttle mixing. You may select a conventional swashplate, or if you have a more
complex chopper, mixing is provided for two types of three-servo swashplates.
