Operational Overview
Flight trims
Aileron trim is shared across all flight modes
Elevator trim is independent for each flight mode
Rudder and throttle trims are repurposed for other functions (see below)
Camber mix
Camber of flaps and ailerons is adjustable via RS (Thermal mode only)
Spoiler compensation (spoiler to elevator)
Spoiler compensation is a variable mix which compensates for pitch changes as spoiler is deployed.
The amount of compensation can be adjusted during flight, via the
Throttle trim
.
Non-linear compensation may be specified via curve ‘SpComp’.
Differential
Diff is applied to ailerons and flaps
Diff is adjustable via the
Rudder trim
.
Diff settings are stored per flight mode.
Roll rate enhancement
Aileron diff reduces to zero as spoiler is deployed. This helps with roll response under crow.
An adjustable ‘Reverse diff’ mix further improves roll response under braking.
Aileron to rudder
Aileron to rudder mix is stored individually for each flight mode.
