Unnecessary fuselage motion is generated when there are sudden changes in the servo position. Variations in the operating

).
NOTE: The same delay amount for elevator and rudder is recommended when using V-tail function.

These additional flight conditions contain different offset trims to make the
saiplane perform certain maneuvers more easily. Aileron differential functions
may be set to provide separate rates per condition selected.
Prior to setting up
