Joysticks

Swap joysticksLeft stick: bucket and boom. Right stick: driving.

Swap bucket tilt and boom liftHorizontal: boom lift. Vertical: bucket tilt.

Invert bucket tiltTurn on if pushing right tilts the bucket down instead of up.

Invert boom liftTurn on if pushing up lowers the boom instead of raising it.

8 direction zones on the arm stickStraight up: boom only. Up-right: boom and bucket together. Right: bucket only, and so on.

Dead zone: 15%Small stick movements are ignored. Drawn on the sticks: the circle in the middle of the arm stick, the cross on the drive stick.

Speed limits (Joystick tab)

Start power is the lowest power, at the smallest stick movement. Top speed is how much of the rest a full stick movement uses: lower it to keep a function slow and precise. The Classic tab always runs at full speed.

Tracks start power: 90 / 255Raise it if the tracks only hum at small stick movements.

Drive top speed: 80%Forward and backward.

Turn top speed: 80%Turning left and right.

Boom start power: 90 / 255Raise it if the boom only hums at small stick movements.

Boom top speed: 20%Boom up and down.

Bucket min speed: 0%Bucket tilt speed at the smallest stick movement.

Bucket top speed: 20%Bucket tilt speed at full stick movement (100% = 180°/s).

Bucket angle

Bucket now: – · AUX now: –

The bucket servo never goes outside this range, from any control (joystick and Classic slider). Use it to stop the bucket before it pushes against the frame or the boom; the bucket moves while you drag, so you can watch it.

Bucket min angle: 10°Lowest servo angle (10° = servo limit).

Bucket max angle: 180°Highest servo angle (180° = servo limit).

Start position

Where the servos go when the MiniSkidi is switched on. Used at the next power-on; changing it doesn't move the servos now. The bucket start is kept inside the bucket angle range above.

Bucket start angle: 140°Always between the bucket min and max angle; moves along when they change.

AUX start angle: 150°

The boom has no angle limit: its motor has no position sensor, so the MiniSkidi can't know where the boom is. Use Boom top speed to keep it slow.

Settings are saved on the MiniSkidi and apply to every phone.
