Hi,
I have a Sanwa rd6000 super radio and am currently setting up ccpm on my t rex 450.
I have noticed that in ccpm mode, that the atv (or epa) adjustments change the total travel of each function,
(elevator, aileron, pitch), much like the swash mixing or menu in other radios.
This is fine until I have to compensate for any interactions, which I believe on other radios is done by using
atv (or epa) adjustments. Any idea how this is then done?
Thanks,
Eric.

I would recommend viewing "Finless" Bob's videos if you have not already
done so. I believe the most important thing is to first select the appropriate
ccpm setup which would be CCP3(B)(CP3B). Pitch on left, Aileron on right,
elevator to rear, facing front from tail. Next would be to have the servo arms
as straight with the servo as possible. Use linear curves for throttle and pitch
(0-25-50-75-100 ) for initial set up. Follow the align manual for control rod
lengths. Once this is done place the throttle - collective stick to 50%. then
adjust the control linkages to achieve a level swash.
Initially you want all trims and centers at 0 and all end points at 100.
Of interest I'm using the Align apeed control and had to set the throttle
high end point to 150 and the low end point to 100 to get the speed control
to function. But the throttle curve is as you know well within this range.
A neat little swash leveler is offered freely by one of Helifreaks devoted
followers upon making a donation to the cause.
Send a message to Mr. Will James to see if the leveler is still offered.
I hope this may be of help. :mrgreen:

Thanks for the reply. I have since realised that one of the links to the swash was off by a turn, and I now I have next to no interactions!
I have also found out that my radio is a little different than the Futaba's etc, in that as previously mentioned when in ccpm mode, the atvs no longer control the adjustments for each servo seperatly, but only for each control function as a whole, eg elevator, aileron, pitch. This means they are not available for fine tuning of any interactions that may occur.
These interactions, if any, must be dialed out using programable mixes apparantly, so I am glad I don't now have any!
Glad you like my user name by the way!
Eric.
