Butterfly Mix (Landing Flaps)
S27
The Butterfly Mix is the landing program that mixes the
flaps, flaperons (ailerons as flaps) and elevator to the
spoiler (throttle) stick. Two values are available,
Pos0
and
Pos1
, and each can be assigned to several different
switches or flight modes. An offset is provided to allow
the user’s preference for the neutral position (normally
stick up).
To access the Butterfly menu, in
FUNC.LIST
rotate
the
Selector
until
Butterfly
is highlighted. Press the
Selector
to access the Butterfly menu.
Note
: The default setting for offset is at +170%.
With this setting, the flap’s neutral position (trailing
edge level) occurs when the spoiler stick is in the full up
position. If you choose to locate the neutral position in
the down position, the value would be –170%. Rotate the
Selector
to highlight SW select and press the
Selector
to access the available switches. The default setting is
the
BTF
or butterfly switch. To access the various values,
rotate the
Selector
to highlight them then depress the
Selector
to access the value. Move the spoiler stick to
the full down position and adjust the value by rotating the
Selector
until the desired position is achieved. Press the
Selector
to store the value. You may wish to adjust the
SPOI
ELEV
, however, there is a curve mix in P-mix 1
that will allow several points on a curve to be adjusted
for flap-to-elevator mixing that we will be covering in
programmable mix 1. Press the
LIST
button to return to
the Function Mode screen.
