Before connecting and calibrating the RC, make sure that:
|
|
|
|
* There is no battery connected to the drone.
|
|
* The propellers are not mounted.
|
|
|
|
## Connecting the RC transmitter
|
|
|
|
1. Open the *Vehicle Setup* tab and select the *Radio* menu.
|
|
2. Power on the transmitter by sliding the **POWER** slider up.
|
|
3. Make sure the transmitter-receiver link is working.
|
|
|
|
The transmitter LCD screen should display the connection:

|
The LED on the receiver should glow steadily. Read the [radio troubleshooting article](radioerrors.md) if the link does not work.
|
|
|
|
## Transmitter calibration
|
|
|
|
1. Press the *Calibrate* button.
|
|
2. Set the *Throttle*, *Yaw*, *Pitch*, and *Roll* trims to 0
|
|
* Trims are small constant offsets applied to a control in order to make your drone fly correctly.
|
|
* Move the trimming slider to the center using trimming buttons until you hear a long beep. Do this for each axis.
|
|
3. Press *OK* in QGroundControl.

|
|

|
|
6. When you get the *"Move all transmitter switches and/or dials back and forth to their extreme positions"* instruction, move all switches and dials to their extreme positions.
|
|
7. Press *Next*.
|
|
8. When you get the *"All settings have been captured. Click Next to write the new parameters to your board"*, press *Next*.
