HOW 120 CCPM WORKS
7.13
CHAPTER 7: FUNCTIONS (FUNCTION MODE)
Helicopter
As mentioned previously, 120° Three-Servo CCPM
relies on the radio’s special CCPM swashplate mixing,
rather than a conventional mechanical mixer that is
utilized to achieve the same results.
The radio’s 120° Three-Servo CCPM function
automatically mixes the three servos to provide the
correct mixing inputs for aileron (roll), elevator
(pitch), and collective. The following is an example of
how each control input affects the servo’s movement:
1. Collective
When a collective pitch input is given, all three
servos (A, B, and C) move together in the same
direction, at equal amounts, to raise and lower the
swashplate while keeping the swashplate level.
During this function, all three servos travel at the
same value (100%) so that the swashplate can
remain level during the increase and decrease in
pitch. As mentioned, this mixing of the three servos
is achieved through the radio’s CCPM program.
2. Elevator (Pitch)
When an elevator input is given, all three servos
must move to tilt the swashplate fore and aft, but
their directions vary. The two rear servos (B and C)
move together in the same direction, while the
front servo (A) moves in the opposite direction. For
example, when an up elevator (back cyclic)
command is given, the two rear servos (B and C)
will move downward, while the front servo (A)
moves upward so that the swashplate will tilt aft.
During this function, the front servo (A) travels at
100%, while the two rear servos (B and C) travel at
50% (1/2 the travel value) of the front servo. This
difference in travel is necessary due to the fact that
the position of the front control ball is two times
the distance of the two rear control ball position as
measured from the center of the swashplate. As
mentioned, this mixing of the three servos is also
achieved through the radio’s CCPM program.
3. Aileron (Roll)
When an aileron (roll) input is given, the two rear
servos (B and C) travel in opposite directions, while
the front servo (A) remains motionless. For
example, when a left aileron (roll) command is
given, the left rear servo (C) will move downward,
while the right rear servo (B) will move upward to
tilt the swashplate to the left. As mentioned, the
front servo (A) will remain motionless. The travel
value for each of the two rear servos is 100%.
