From heading hold, press and
release the
GPS
(Select Load) button. The pilot will start maneuvering toward the waypoint. If you have
selected 3 Leaf Clover pattern as the special function for the
Bent Arrow

Bent Right Arrow
button the
cloverleaf will be traversed by always turning to starboard, the other Bent Arrow button will cause the
pattern to be traversed while always turning to port. The length of one of the cloverleaf is programmed
with setup code 28. It is adjustable in length from 500 ft. to 6000 ft. in 100 ft. increments.
