AlLEVATORS/COMBINED AlLERONS & ELEVATORS (ALV)
This function allows you to hook up the eleva-
tor surface on each side of the airplane independ-
ently, so that they operate together (elevator
mode) and differentially (aileron mode). This
function, sometimes called "ailevators" (ALV) will
give aileron control even at low speeds, because
the propeller wash is always passing over the tail
surfaces and may be used for rolling commands.
This function requires two elevator servos con-
nected to receiver output channels 2 and 5. In this
manual (see diagram), the rear control surfaces are
referred to as Aileron 3 and Aileron 4. With this
function, all control deflections — left and right
ailerons, and elevator on both sides — can be
adjusted. You may even add differential to the rear
ailerons.
Setting Up Differential Elevators
Activation of command
In the Condition Menu, press the ALV key to get the
AILVATOR menu shown below. Use the A key to
activate mode setting, then press the ACT or
INH
keys (F and G) to activate or inhibit the function.

Setting the Aileron 3 Rates
You now set the left-side travel for Aileron 3. Press the
B key to activate left rate setting for Aileron 3 and set
the rate with the numeric keys E to M . The number
keys 0 through 100 input the value directly. The +
and - keys increase or decrease the value by 1. The
+/-
key may be used to reverse the throw direction.
Your setting may vary from -100 to +100%,the initial
value is-50%.
Now set the right-side rate for Aileron 3. Press the Q
key to activate Aileron 3 right rate setting and set the rate
with the numeric keys as before.
Setting the Aileron 4 Rates
This procedure is repeated for Aileron 4. Press the C
key to activate left rate setting for Aileron 4 and set the
rate with the numeric keys E to M as before. The max
values and initial setting are the same as for Aileron 3.
Now set the right-side rate for Aileron 4. Press the 13
key to activate Aileron 4 right rate setting and set the rate
as before.
Setting the Elevator Rates - 1 and 2
You now set the rate for Elevator 1. press the D key
to activate rate setting for Elevator 1 and set the rate with
the numeric keys E to M . The initial rate is 100%, but
you may vary your setting between -100 and +100%.
Now set the rate for Elevator 2. Press the O key to
activate Elevator 2 rate setting and set its rate with the
numeric keys. Settings have the same range as Elevator 1.
Checking Your Work
After you have set up the Ailevator rates, be sure that
they move the correct directions. For up elevator com-
mand, both elevators should move upward. For right
aileron command, the trailing edge of the right-hand
surface should move up. and the trailing edge of the left-
hand surface should move down. If they do not, use the
+/- to reverse the direction as needed. Adjust the
travels on either side to get the differential effect, if you
wish.
Exiting
Use the END ( N) key to leave this menu.
