In this menu you defi ne all the functions which apply
to your model. Select the line, press the rotary control
briefl y, and select the required option:
Motor
„none“: The model is a glider, with no mo-
tor. Selecting this option disables the
“Throttle too high” warning; see pa-
ges 20 and 46.
„Thr. min rear“: The idle position of the throttle / air-
brake stick (Ch1) is back, i.e. to-
wards the pilot.
„Thr. min front“: The idle position of the throttle / air-
brake stick (Ch1) is forward, i.e.
away from the pilot.
Notes:
• The Ch1 trim acts only at the idle end of the range,
i.e. only at the “back” or “forward” end of the stick
travel. You can check the setting in the »
Servo dis-
play « menu.
• Cut-off trim: this special function is described on
page 32.
Tail
„Normal“: Most fi xed-wing model aircraft have
a “normal tail”. For example, this in-
cludes all powered models and gli-
ders in which each of the func-
tions elevator, rudder and throttle
(or speed controller or airbrakes) is
operated by one servo.
„V-tail“: The elevator and rudder controls
are operated by two control sur-
faces set in a V-shape, each cont-
rolled by a separate servo. The two-
way coupling function for the rudder
and elevator control systems is au-
tomatically carried out by the sys-
tem software. The program caters
for up to two aileron and fl ap ser-
vos. The ratio of rudder to eleva-
tor travel can be adjusted using the
»
Dual Rate « menu (page 64). The
servo travels can be adjusted in the
»
Servo adjustment « menu (page
56).
„Delt/fl .wing“: The mixed elevon (aileron and ele-
vator) control system requires two
separate aileron servos. Two addi-
tional wing fl aps can also be cont-
rolled.
„2Elev.Sv3+8“: This option is designed for model
aircraft with two elevator servos.
When the elevator stick is moved,
the servo connected to receiver
output 8 moves in tandem with the
standard elevator servo. The eleva-
tor trim lever affects both servos.
In this mode a transmitter control
which is assigned to input 8 in the
»
Control adjust « menu is de-cou-
pled from servo “8”; this is for safety
reasons.
Ailerons / camber-changing fl aps
You can defi ne the number of aileron and fl ap servos
at this point.
Note:
The only time that all the receiver outputs can cont-
rol separate servos individually is when the “normal”
model type is selected, with no more than one aile-
ron servo and one fl ap servo. At all other times the re-
ceiver outputs are coupled together by software in va-
rious ways as standard. The software provides ready-
made mixers for up to two aileron servos and two fl ap
servos. The associated mixers and their set-up faci-
lities are activated in the »
Wing mixers « menu, re-
gardless of the pre-set values entered in this menu
point.
Additional wing-mounted servos can be integrated
very simply by using the »
Dual mixer « menu; see
page 110.
Brake
This function is likely to interest electric-powered mo-
del enthusiasts, and pilots of glow-powered models
fi tted with landing fl aps. The following mixers:
• Brake 3 elevator
• Brake 6 fl ap
• Brake 5 aileron
are described in the » Wing mixers « menu (see page
84), and can be operated by the Ch1 stick (“Input 1”)
or by an auxiliary proportional control or switch which
is assigned (already or subsequently) to input 8 or 9
(see »
Control adjust « menu). This parameter is also
programmed using the rotary control in the usual way.
Once you have selected the input, and – if you are
using “Input 1” – have already entered the setting
in the “Motor” line, the mixer neutral point (“Offset”,
see page 101) can be shifted to any point you wish:
switch to the
STO fi eld, move the transmitter control
for the selected input 1, 8 or 9 to the desired position
(landing fl aps in neutral position), and set the offset
point with a brief press on the rotary control. If the off-
set is not located right at the end of the control travel,
the remaining travel is a “dead zone”, i.e. it no longer
affects any of the mixers listed above.
