To adjust the trim settings:
Once the servos and control surfaces have been connected and the control throws have been set using the end points
and dual rates, get the model airborne. Adjust the trims as necessary to get the model to fly straight-and-level. If much
trim is required on any one control it is a good idea to readjust the pushrods so the trims can be returned to neutral
(zero). Adjusting the trims with the trim levers changes the servo's position in increments of “4.” If finer adjustments
are required, land the model, then enter the program as described below to adjust the trims in increments of “1.”
1. Enter the programming mode and use the MODE key to activate the TRIM menu.
2. Press the SELECT key to display the channel to be adjusted (the figure shows trim
adjustment for CH1).
3. Adjust the trim using the DATA INPUT lever. Note that initially, the values change in
increments of “1,” but if the DATA INPUT lever is held long enough the values will change
more rapidly.
4. Repeat the steps for other channels that require trim adjustments.

PMIX - Programmable Mixer
Unlike the “wing mixing” function (explained later) where the channels to be mixed are factory-set, the T6EAP also
contains one programmable mix for you, the pilot determine the channels to be mixed. This could be used to correct
unwanted flight tendencies (by mixing rudder to aileron, or aileron to rudder for example).

2. Push the DATA INPUT lever upward. This will cause the flashing “INH” display to change
to a flashing “ON” display.
3. Push SELECT key to call the screen for selecting channels to control “MAS” (Master)
mixing. Then select the channel by pushing DATA INPUT lever. Channel 1 (aileron) in this
figure is assigned to the master.
4. Push SELECT key to call the screen for selecting channels to control “SLV” (Slave)
mixing. Then select the channel by pushing DATA INPUT lever. Channel 4 (rudder) in this
figure is assigned to the slave.
5. Press the SELECT key twice to display the flashing % sign. Use the DATA INPUT lever to
set the percentage of mixing from -100% to +100% (depending on the direction and
distance you wish the slave servo to move).
6. Observe how the controls on the model respond to be certain you have achieved the correct mix and that the throws
are as desired.
