Using ‘Instant Spoiler’ + 1 switch
In this configuration, Landing mode is selected automatically as the crow is deployed. A single 3-
position switch is used to select the remaining flight modes.
The table below shows the necessary adjustments. Substitute your chosen 3-position switch for
SwMain
:

above, it would be SC-middle.
9.2
Adjusting spoiler stick deadband
The spoiler stick response incorporates some deadband at the idle end to prevent accidental
deployment. A small amount of deadband is also desirable to allow for pot drift and ratchet slip.
The default deadband should be fine for most pilots, however it can be adjusted as follows:
1
Go to Curves menu
2
Open Curve 7 (‘SpDdB’)
3
Change pt2 -> X. Decrease X to increase the deadband. Recommended max value is 95.
9.3
Reversing the spoiler stick
By default, zero spoiler corresponds to throttle stick fully forward. If you prefer zero spoiler with
throttle fully back, then reverse the response as follows:
1
Open the mixer editor for CH18 (ThDdBd)
Thr
2
Skip to the Curve field
3
Change the curve from ‘CV7’ to ‘
!
CV7’ (note leading exclamation mark).
