DigiMix-II
Programmable Elevon and V-Tail Servo Mixer
Introduction
Thank you for your purchase. DigiMix-II is an advanced electronic servo mixer for radio controlled
‘flying wings’ and V-Tail aircraft. It has a number of features which are normally only found on
computerised radio systems, allowing customised set-up of the control surface movement. The
amount of servo movement for elevator and aileron / rudder (‘flying wing’ / V-Tail aircraft,
respectively) may be individually programmed from 1% to 120% of standard movement, giving the
ability to increase or decrease the sensitivity of each, depending on pilot experience. This feature
makes DigiMix-II ideal for beginner and intermediate pilots, where sensitivity of elevator and/or
aileron/rudder may be increased as pilot ability improves. Experienced pilots may increase
sensitivity beyond the normal range offered by standard radio equipment, by programming full
(120%) movement for extreme and fast manoeuvres. DigiMix-II uses a powerful RISC processor
and well designed software for reliable, trouble-free operation.
