Default RE: Exponential setting on TX?


ORIGINAL: topwinguk

I have just purchased a Spectrum DX6i radio and am just installing it in a model. The manual is extremely detailed and explains settings very simply. However when setting up the exponential function I find that the instructions state that a positive setting gives a less sensitive movement around neutral. This is opposite to the instructions for setting up exponential on my Futaba Tx's, i.e. negative values provide less sensitivity around neutral. Anybody got an explanation? Seems a contradiction in protocols!

Explanation? Yeah, major manufacturers don't want to do things the same way their competition does it.

You set exponential with positive values on JR/Spectrums and you set it to negative numbers on Futaba. Makes no sense, but that's how Futaba wants it and how JR wants it.
