AIRBRAKE/SPOILER/GEAR TRIM COMPENSATION (ABE)
This mixing is used to compensate for trim
changes when airbrakes, spoilers, or landing gear
are operated. It may be used to correct dropping
or raising of the nose by adding suitable elevator
compensation.
The mixing rate to elevator can be adjusted
independently at the high and low sides of the
stick operation. If desired, the mixing neutral
position can be offset from the air brake neutral
position.
Airbrake compensation mixing can be turned
on and off during flight if a switch is defined,
otherwise, if activated it remains on always. The
amount of mixing can also be trimmed by setting
a volume control.
