S-31
The 12X features a Balance function that allows the servo
outputs of dual channels to be adjusted throughout the range.
This is useful when two servos are used to drive a single
surface (i.e. two aileron servos used to drive one aileron), and
the linkage geometry of each servo is slightly different (typical
with a tapered aileron). If both servos are mixed in a linear
fashion, binding will occur throughout the control range due

To Program the Balance Function
1. Highlight and select Balance in the FUNC.LIST to obtain the
Balance display.
2. Note that the Balance screen will display the functions that
are programmed in the Wing Type. If no dual functions
are programmed in Device Select, then only one aileron
column will appear in the balance screen. If dual flaps are
programmed then two columns will appear in the balance
screen. This also applies to the dual elevator and rudder
functions.
to linkage geometry inaccuracies. The Balance function allows
the servo output of the master servo to be adjusted at 7 points
throughout the range, compensating for any linkage geometry
inaccuracies. Think of Balance as a curve mix that allows the
master channels to be independently adjusted at seven different
points, allowing a perfect bind-free setup throughout the control
stroke.
3. Using the roller, highlight the desired position and press
the roller to access the value. Rotate the roller to change
the output position that is selected. The range is +100 to
-100. Repeat this for all positions until no binding occurs
throughout Control Travel.
