Select “00” if no mixer is to be set.
TRAVEL–/+ (mixer ratio in %)
The mixer ratio in relation to the MASTER signal is
determined separately for each direction by the values
entered in these two lines.
RX WING MIXER TAIL TYPE
The following model types are also available in the
“Tail” line of the “
Base settings ” menu (see page 76),
and should normally be set up at that point. If you have
done this, you should
always leave the TAIL TYPE at
NORMAL.
However, if you prefer to use the receiver’s integral
mixers, you can select the pre-set mixer function for the
corresponding model type:
NORMAL •
This setting corresponds to the classic aircraft type
with tail-mounted stabiliser panels and separate rud-
der and elevator. No mixer function is required for this
model type.
V-TAIL •
For this model type the control functions elevator and
rudder are linked together in such a way that each of
the two control surfaces - actuated by a separate ser-
vos - carries out superimposed elevator and rudder
functions.
The servos are usually connected to the receiver as
follows:
OUTPUT CH 3: left V-tail servo
OUTPUT CH 4: right V-tail servo
If you find that the servos rotate in the wrong direc-
tion, please see the notes on page 62.
ELEVON (delta / flying wing models) •
The servos connected to outputs 2 and 3 assume su-
perimposed aileron and elevator functions. The ser-
vos are usually connected to the receiver as follows:
OUTPUT CH 2: left elevon
OUTPUT CH 3: right elevon
If you find that the servos rotate in the wrong direc-
tion, please see the notes on page 62.

In most cases a non-linear control function is used for
aileron (channel 2), elevator (channel 3) and rudder
(channel 4), and the default settings assume that this is
the case. BUT CAUTION: this assignment only applies if
you have not set either “2 ELE Sv” in the “Tail” line of the
“
Base settings ” menu, or “2AIL” or “2AIL 2FL” in the “Ail
/ flap” line, at the transmitter. Otherwise control function
3 (elevator) is already split over control channels 3 +
8 , and control function 2 (aileron) is split over control
channels 2 + 5 for the left and right ailerons . In both
these cases the corresponding receiver control channels
(INPUT CH) would then be channels 03 + 08 or 02 + 05.
For example, if you have set “2AIL” at the transmitter,
and wish to use the RX CURVE option discussed here
instead of the “
D/R Expo ” menu (see page 102) of the
mx-16
HoTT transmitter - which offers more individual
adjustment options - then two curves must be set:
RX CURVE
TYPE : A
CURVE1 CH : 02
TYPE : A
CURVE2 CH : 05
TYPE : B
CURVE3 CH : 04
If you ignored this, the left and right ailerons would
exhibit different control characteristics.
The RX CURVE function can be used to manage the
control characteristics for up to three servos:
CURVE 1, 2 or 3 CH •
Select the desired control channel (INPUT CH) for
the first servo.
The following setting in TYPE only affects the chan-
nel you select at this point.
