Different methods of installing servos and control lin-
kages may make it necessary to reverse the direction
of rotation of some servos when programming.
The following table provides useful information on
this:

In the “Program descriptions” all menus which are re-
levant to fi xed-wing models are marked with an “aero-

rors. This means that this input can be used for
fl ight phase specifi c auxiliary functions; see the
programming example “8-fl ap wing”, starting on
page 184.
• For reasons of safety, a transmitter control as-
signed to “Input 10” is also de-coupled in the
software if you choose “2 AIL 4 FL” in the “Aile-
rons / fl aps” line of the »
Model type « menu.
Tips:
• In the “Multi-fl ap menu” of the »
Wing mixers «
menu the fl ap positions can be entered for all pairs
of wing fl aps (AILE, FLAP and FL2), separately
for each fl ight phase. However, you can also enter
the same settings at any time in the »
Phase trim
F3B « menu … where you can also set up a pha-
se-specifi c elevator trim function.
• If you prefer, the flap function for all pairs of wing
flaps (AILE, FLAP and FL2) can also be opera-
ted using the “throttle / airbrake stick”, provided
that this is not already in use for another purpo-
se. To accomplish this all you need to do is assign
“Transmitter control 1” to Input 6 in the »
Transmit-
ter control adjust « menu. However, if you prefer
to operate the flaps using a switch, you can equal-
ly well assign one of the two-position or three-po-
sition switches (SW) fitted to the
mx
-24s to “Input
6”.
