1. In Function Mode list, rotate the Selector until 63. ELEV
to FLAP is highlighted. Press the Selector to access the
Elevator-to-Flap mix menu.
2. Note that the elevator-to-flap values can be independently
adjusted up and down. Also the offset (the stick position
where the mixing changes from up to down) can be
adjusted. This offset allows the programming of snap-flaps,
a common sailplane function that gives greater full up
elevator pitch authority for tighter turns. With snap-flaps,
no flap mixing occurs during small to medium up elevator
inputs, but at about 80% up elevator, the flaps are mixed to
give down flaps, causing greater up pitch authority.
3. Rotate the Selector to highlight the CRUISE (cruise mode)
values depress the Selector to select that value.
4. If you choose to program snap-flaps, rotate the Selector
until the Offset is highlighted and depress the Selector to
access this value. A 0 value locates the offset position when
the elevator is centered. The adjustment range is -200 to
+200. Negative values move the offset in the up elevator
direction. Set a value of –100 to start, as this will locate the
offset at 80% up elevator. Press the Selector to store this
offset value.
5. With the 3-position switch in the middle (cruise) position,
give a full up elevator command and hold while adjusting
the Cruise up value until the desired down flap position is
achieved. Press the LIST button to return to the Function
Mode screen.
5. In FUNC.LIST rotate the Selector until 32.DIFFEREN.
is highlighted. Press the Selector to access the Aileron
differential menu.
6. Rotate the Selector to highlight the CRUISE aileron value
then press the Selector to access that value.
7. With the flight mode switch in the middle Cruise mode,
give a full right aileron command and rotate the Selector to
achieve the desired aileron differential for launch. Pressing
the Selector will store the value.
8. Now rotate the Selector to highlight the launch flap value
and adjust it to the desired position. Press the LIST button
to return to the Function Mode screen.
