A-27
The Wing Type function provides for 4 different wing types
(NORMAL, FLAPERON, DELTA and 4- Aileron).
NORMAL wing type is used when only the Aileron channel is
to be used to control ailerons, either with 1 servo, or multiple
servos connected through a Y-harness to the aileron channel.
FLAPERON is typically used when each Aileron is controlled by
a separate servo that is on separate channels and there are no
other flaps on the aircraft. Setting the wing type to FLAPERON
also makes available the Aileron Differential and Elevator-to-
Flap mixing functions in the FUNC.LIST (described later).
DELTA is used with Delta wing aircraft (also referred to as
Elevon). With Delta wing type the Ailerons and elevator are
mixed giving roll and pitch control for Delta wing airplanes.
4-AILERON is used in aircraft where two servos are used to
operate the right aileron and two servos are used to operate the
left aileron. In this configuration each servo is independently
adjustable for sub trim and travel adjust. A balance function is
also available (page A-38) that allows the servo output to be
matched throughout its travel preventing binding due to linkage
geometry inaccuracies.

Wing Types
V-Tail Mix
V-Tail The Wing Type function provides programming for
aircraft that have a V-Tail configuration where the 2 tail control
surfaces are used for both Elevator and Rudder control.
Wing Type allows Dual Aileron, Dual Elevator, Dual Rudder
and Dual Flap functions to be activated. This function is
used when two servos are used to drive the primary control
surfaces allowing the independent adjustment of for sub
trim and travel adjust of each channel. A balance function is
also available (page A-38) that allows the servo output to be
matched throughout its travel preventing binding due to linkage
geometry inaccuracies.
Note
: To access Dual Flaps it is necessary to assign the
Flap to SYS (system) in Device Select. When Dual Flaps
are activated, Aileron-to-Flap mixing becomes available in
the function list (page A-54).
Dual Flight Controls
Dual Control Functions
Note
: Dual ailerons is a very important commonly used
function because a large number of sport and aerobatic
aircraft use 2 servos and 2 channels to operate the
Ailerons, providing the ability to utilize Aileron Differential
and to allow precise independent adjustment of sub trim
and travel adjust for each aileron.
If the aircraft has flaps that are separate from the Ailerons,
the Dual aileron wing type and (activating dual flaps) is
recommended.
The Wing Type function contains the Twin Engine (Twin E.)
feature, which allows for setting up a 2nd throttle channel for
a second engine, complete with its own independent sub trim,
travel adjust and separate trims and throttle curves.
