Fms RC Airplane Reflex V3 Flight Control System User Manual

Entwodiksyon

The Fms Reflex V3 Mini Gyro Flight Control System is an advanced stable flight controller designed for remote control aircraft. It utilizes a high-speed 32-bit ARM processor and incorporates solid-state 3-axis gyro and 3-axis accelerometer sensors to provide precise flight stabilization. This system is engineered to automatically recognize SBUS/PPM/PWM systems, ensuring compatibility with all radio systems featuring 4 channels or more. The Reflex V3 simplifies operation by being pre-programmed for specific aircraft, eliminating the need for complex additional programming. Users can easily connect their receiver to the gyro and set up the aircraft normally. A key enhancement in the V3 version is its Bluetooth connectivity, allowing users to connect to a mobile app for convenient parameter setting functions, even for non-FMS models.

Enstalasyon

Koneksyon Materyèl

Connecting the Reflex V3 to your RC aircraft's receiver is a straightforward process. The system is designed for easy integration. Ensure your aircraft's power is off before making any connections.

1. Identify the Aileron, Elevator, Throttle, and Rudder channels on your receiver.
2. Connect the corresponding servo leads from your aircraft's control surfaces (aileron, elevator, throttle, rudder) to the designated ports on the Reflex V3 unit (AIL, ELE, THR, RUD).
3. Connect the Reflex V3 to your receiver. The Reflex V3 automatically recognizes SBUS/PPM/PWM systems. If using a 4-channel transmitter, utilize the included jumper to select between flight modes by plugging it into the “gyro mode input” port.
4. Securely mount the Reflex V3 unit in your aircraft. Ensure it is firmly attached and oriented correctly as indicated in the software's installation instructions for your specific aircraft model.

Software Installation & Configuration

The Reflex V3 can be configured and updated via a mobile app (iOS/Android) or computer software. This allows for fine-tuning parameters and selecting specific aircraft models.

• Aplikasyon mobil: The Reflex V3 version can be connected to a mobile app via Bluetooth after power-on. This unlocks parameter setting functions, which are available for non-FMS models as well.
• Lojisyèl òdinatè: Synchronize required parameters through computer software. Connect the Reflex V3 to your computer using the provided USB data cable.

After installation, set up the corresponding channels and directions on your remote controller. Parameter setting functions are primarily supported by the mobile app for user-friendly operation.

Mòd fonksyònman

The Fms Reflex V3 offers multiple flight modes to cater to different pilot skill levels and flight conditions:

Stabilized Mode

In Stabilized Mode, the Reflex V3 limits control surface travel, which results in tame flight characteristics ideal for beginner pilots. The aircraft automatically returns to level flight when no control input is given, significantly reducing the sensitivity of the aircraft and eliminating rolls and yaw caused by operational errors, thereby maximizing flight safety.

Optimized Mode

Optimized Mode minimizes environmental effects on the airframe. In this mode, the pilot retains maximum control while the Reflex system neutralizes attitude changes caused by wind gusts. This provides a balance between stability and responsiveness, allowing for more dynamic flight while still benefiting from gyro assistance.

Manyèl Mode

In Manual Mode, pilots maintain complete control over maneuvering the aircraft for rolls, high-speed turns, and other aerobatic maneuvers. The Reflex V3 system provides no stabilization or angle limits in this mode, offering an unrestricted flight experience for experienced pilots.

Antretyen

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Fms Reflex V3 Flight Control System, regular maintenance is recommended:

• Kenbe pwòp: Periodically clean the exterior of the Reflex V3 unit with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents.
• Tcheke Koneksyon: Before each flight, inspect all wiring connections to ensure they are secure and free from damage. Loose connections can lead to erratic behavior or loss of control.
• Pwoteksyon anviwònman: Protect the unit from moisture, extreme temperatures, and direct sunlight. While designed for RC aircraft, excessive exposure to harsh elements can degrade performance.
• Mizajou lojisyèl: Regularly check for and install the latest software and firmware updates via the Fms mobile app or PC software. Updates often include performance improvements and bug fixes.
• Depo: When not in use, store the Reflex V3 in a dry, cool place, away from dust and static electricity.

Depanaj

If you encounter issues with your Fms Reflex V3 Flight Control System, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:

• No Response/Incorrect Control:
    - Verify all connections between the Reflex V3, receiver, and servos are correct and secure.
    - Ensure the Reflex V3 is powered on and receiving power from the receiver.
    - Check the orientation of the Reflex V3 unit in the aircraft against the recommended installation diagram for your model. Incorrect orientation can lead to reversed or erratic control.
• No Stabilization/Erratic Behavior:
    - Confirm that the correct aircraft model profile is loaded onto the Reflex V3 via the mobile app or PC software.
    - Check the sensitivity settings in the app. Adjusting sensitivity can resolve over-correction or under-correction issues.
    - Ensure your transmitter's sub-trims and end-points are correctly set and not interfering with the gyro's operation.
• Connection Issues (Bluetooth/USB):
    - For Bluetooth, ensure the Reflex V3 is powered on and within range of your mobile device. Restart both devices if necessary.
    - For USB, ensure the USB data cable is properly connected to both the Reflex V3 and your computer. Try a different USB port or cable if connection fails.
• Firmware Update Failure:
    - Ensure a stable internet connection during updates.
    - Do not disconnect the USB cable or power off the unit during an update.
    - If an update fails, try again, ensuring all other applications are closed on your computer.

If problems persist after attempting these steps, please refer to the official Fms support resources or contact customer service.
