XP70 Instruction Manual
The Dual Rate function allows two control rates (control
throws) to be programmed and selected with a switch.
Dual rates are available on the aileron, elevator and
rudder channels. Changing the dual rate value not only
affects the maximum control authority but also affects
the overall sensitivity of control. A higher rate yields a
higher overall sensitivity. The sensitivity around center
can be tailored using the Exponential function to precisely
adjust control feel.
Dual rates can be controlled by their respective dual rate
switches (aileron, elevator and rudder) or by 1 common sw
(COM AILE, COM ELEV, COM RUDD, FLAP0 or FLAP).
The choices for this are found on the D/R SWITCH SEL
screen in the System Set-up Mode for Airplanes.
Dual rates are available for the aileron, elevator and
rudder channels. Dual rate values are adjustable from
0-1%. The factory default settings for both the 0 and 1
switch positions are 100%. Either switch position may be
selected as the low or high rate by placing the switch in
the desired position and adjusting the value accordingly.
