14.) Trim Storage
By now you have test flown your model and though
you built and trimmed it correctly, now that the model
flies perfectly straight, the trim levers are no longer in
the neutral position. This is unsatisfactory in that the
levers may be accidentally displaced and you may not
remember their correct positions afterwards. Also
when you fly another model it will be difficult to
reproduce the correct trim lever positions if they are
not at the neutral position.
The mc-18 transmitter therefore provides for storage
of trim data, so the trim levers can be reset to the
neutral position. In this manner you can always
reproduce the correct trim adjustment even after a
change of models.
To store the in-flight established trim data, input:
5 9 ENTER STORE
The display now indicates, in it’s lower line, the trim
lever offset you had set from the neutral position (in
the sequence from left to right: throttle, ailerons,
elevator, rudder). The corresponding electronic
values are now retained and you can return the trim
levers to their neutral positions. While you do this you
will notice that the display readings will return to zero.
The idle trim lever, through should not be reset as a
rule, this being a random position not an in-flight
established setting. Terminate the adjustment by
pressing the
ENTER key. The in-flight established
trim will now correspond to the neutral position of the
trim levers.
