Programming example - fixed-wing model
1/2FL”, and in the “
Wing mixer
” menu the mixer
“Brake  NN*”, plus all mixers “from” and “to” flaps,
are activated .
The warning message “Throttle too high” - see pages
36 and 67 - and the “Motor stop” option in the “
Basic
settings ” menu are disabled .
“none/inv”: •
The brake system is “retracted” at the back position
of the throttle / brake stick; the “Ch8 delayed” option
and the “Brake
 NN*” mixers in the “ Wing mixers ”
menu are activated .
In the “Aileron / flap” line of the “ Basic settings ”
menu you can select “1AIL”, “2AIL” and “1/2AIL
1/2FL”, and in the “
Wing mixer ” menu the mixer
“Brake

NN*”, plus all mixers “from” and “to” flaps,
are activated .
The warning message “Throttle too high” - see pages
36 and 67 - and the “Motor stop” option in the “
Basic
settings
” menu are disabled .
“Throttle min. forward or rear”: •
Ch1 trim takes effect forward or back, and the “Mo-
tor stop” option in the “
Basic settings
” menu is acti-
vated .
If the throttle stick is too far towards full-throttle when
the transmitter is switched on, the warning “Throttle
too high” appears to alert you to this; see pages 36
and 67.
In the “
Basic settings ” menu the “Ch8 delayed” op-
tion and the “Brake  N.N.*” mixers in the “ Wing mi-
xers ” menu are disabled .
Note:
As mentioned previously, selecting “motor” or “no motor”
also affects the range of mixers available in the “
Fixed-
wing mixers
” menu. For this reason we shall initially
consider “none” (no motor) in the following programming
example.
In the next two lines you select the basic arrangement
of the servos in the model, and inform the transmitter of
your choice:
stick mode
motor at C1
1
no
tail type normal
CH8 delay
aile/flap 2aile
yes
tail type
: “normal”, “V-tail”, “delt/FlW” or
“2elev sv”
aile/flap
: 1 or 2 aileron servos and 0, 1 or 2 flap
servos
At this juncture - if not before - you should check that
the servos are connected to the receiver in the standard
Graupner sequence:
Airbrakes or throttle / speed controller
or speed controller (electric)
Right flap servo
Flap servo or left flap servo
Rudder servo or V-tail
Aileron servo or left aileron servo
Elevator servo or V-tail
Right aileron servo
Auxiliary function
Receiver power supply
Notes:
If you set up a V-tail, but the “up / down” and / or “left •
/ right” functions work the wrong way round, please
refer to the table in the right-hand column on page
62 for the remedy. The same procedure can be used
if you set up flaperons (superimposed ailerons and
flaps), and they work the wrong way round.
The following settings apply to a model with a “nor-
•
mal” tail and no motor (“none”); if your model has a V-
tail, the settings can be adopted virtually unchanged.
However, if the model is a delta or flying wing, the sit-
uation is not quite so straightforward. A special pro-
gramming example covering this model type will be
found in the section starting on page 178.

… ... you can set various parameters relating to the ser-
vos, i. e. “
direction of rotation ”, “ neutral setting ” and
“ servo travel ”, to suit the requirements of the model.
By “requirements” we mean adjustments to servo centre
and servo travel which are needed to compensate for
minor tolerances in servos and
slight inaccuracies on
the model itself.
Note:
The facilities provided in this menu for setting asym-
metrical servo travels are NOT intended as a means of
setting up differential travel on ailerons and / or camber-
changing flaps. There are more suitable options for
this in the form of specific functions in the “
Fixed-wing
mixers
” menu; see the first two options in the picture on
the right.
