Introduction Thank you very much, for purchasing the Graupner receiver GR -10C. This receiver is extremely versatile. Read this manual carefully to achieve the best results with your Graupner GR-10C RECEIVER and first of all to safely control your models. If you experience any trouble during operation, take the instructions to help or ask your dealer or Graupner Service Centre. Due to technical changes, the information may be changed in this manual without prior notice.
Intended use The receiver is only suitable to be installed on multicopter models. More punctual information about receiver can be found in the Technical data section. The receiver is designed exclusively to be used in battery-powered, radio controlled models, any other use is not allowed. For any improper use no warranty or liability is accepted. Read through this entire manual before you attempt to install or use the receiver.
Symbols explication ! Always follow the information marked with the CAUTION or WARNING symbol. The signal word WARNING indicates the potential for serious injury, the signal word CAUTION indicates possibility of lighter injuries. The signal words note and caution indicate potential damages to objects. Safety notes ! General These safety instructions are intended not only to protect the product, but also for your own and other people’s safety.
The insurance is mandatory for all kinds of model operation. If you already have one, please inform yourself if the operation of the respective model is covered by your insurance. If this is not the case, conclude a special liability insurance policy for models. We recommend to provide the copter with a label, where are indicated the name, address, tel. n., E-mail and Insurance N. So that the copter can be clearly assigned in the event of a crash.
Installation in the model (multicopter) The receiver must be aligned at right angles to the copter on the receiver platform. The lower surface of the receiver must always be parallel to one of the copter sides. Prior to installation, remove the sticker on the back of the receiver. We recommend using double-sided tape No.: S8376 for Gr-18 to fix the receiver in place. Binding Binding is only possible if the receiver has not been linked with a bound transmitter since being switched on (red LED lights).
Telemetry or channel (T/9) socket The optional telemetry sensors are connected to the socket marked “T” (T/9)- Telemetry. In addition, the update is performed on this socket. The socket can even be used as optional channel 9. (see following section) Power supply Connect the power supply to the battery port. Make sure that the polarity is correct! The input voltage should not be higher than 8,4V. (1 -2 S) Receiver setup menu RECEIVER 1.

The flight mode must be set on channel 5.
Initialization of the gyro Initialization by switching on Once the model has been switched on, the gyro immediately becomes active but still needs to be initialised. To initialise the gyro, keep your model still when you switch it on. The calibration process can only be performed when the receiver is absolutely still. After 3 seconds in still position you will hear beeps emitted by all motors. The signal tone can vary depending on the esc model.

Normal is set for ‘normal‘ multicopter (without reverse rotation). Acro 3D setting for multicopter whose speed controllers are equipped with reverse rotation.
Example: If the throttle stick is down when you turn in rate mode, the motors run at once fully backward.
Axis assignment Step 3 Axis assignment in the gyro Axis assignment < >Setup No ROLL +0 NICK +0 YAW +0 Setup: Setup: Yes/No Assignment of the gyros and their operating direction. In the receiver’s “Axis assign” menu, go to the “Setup” option and set it to “Setup: Yes”. Now assign the axes as follow: On the transmitter, briefly set the roll command fully to the right; the roll axis is highlighted.

Then go some steps back in order to prevent the soar up climb in case of full throttle.
Multicopter Yaw settings Multicopter Yaw >Yaw P Yaw I Yaw D 40 20 10 Yaw P - Factor Default setting: +45 The P factor is responsible for the harder snap to yaw. Higher values result in a faster stop. At too high P-values the copter starts to “swing”. In such cases, the value must be reduced again. Yaw I - Factor Default setting: +15 The I-factor ensures constant rotations. Start with low values and only increase them until the rotations are constant.
Firmware Update Updates to the receiver’s firmware are made via the telemetry socket using a PC running Windows XP, Vista or 7. You will also need a USB interface, order No. 7168.6, and adapter lead, order No. 7168.6A or 7168.S, so as the 33565.1 adapter (invert signal and minus) which are available separately. The programs and files required can be found in the Download area for the corresponding products at www.graupner.de. Connect the adapter lead to the USB interface No. 7168.6.
When the file has loaded, click on start... ... connect the receiver and switch it on. The progress bar shows that the transfer is running normally. The receiver LED lights up red and green during this process and flashes red and green alternately once the transfer is complete. Please refer to the detailed update instructions for the item in question in the Download area at www.graupner.de.
