Appendix I (Control Throws)
These throws are specific to the role of predominantly gliding. If you choose to go fast (DSing) be
prepared to modify the suggestions substantially to support higher speeds. Similarly with slope
aerobatics. I generally stooge around at best glide slope looking for lift with the odd sprint through
sink (+2mm of camber).
Launch Mode
High rates set (rate selector switch inactive), camber preset at -3mm, elevator preset at +1.5mm to
initiate the climb out and 2mm right rudder is preset to counter prop wash rotation. Throttle set at
100% (full). Mode is selected on the right hand spring switch.
Best Glide Slope Mode
Normal mode is selected by the middle position of the top left switch. The rate selector switch
(top right 3 position switch) is active controlling aileron, elevator, and rudder as a set.
All measurements are in mm, + is up, - is down. Exponentials are shown as percentages.

Flaps
+5 to -18 on right hand slider
Camber
+5 to -8 on left hand slider, operates both aileron and flap in unison.
Mixing
Camber and flaps to elevator active, 0 to -9 at full deployment
Aileron Differential
active, aileron to rudder mixing 8mm to -8mm.
Loiter Mode
Medium rates selected, rate switch not active. Camber preset to -3mm, left slider camber control
from +5mm to -8mm. Aileron differential and aileron to rudder mixing active.
Landing Mode
High rates selected, rate switch not active.
Crow active a11, flaps -12 right slider controls flaps to -30.
Elevator mixing active -4 mm to -9 mm controlled by flaps.
Aileron differential off
Aileron to rudder mixing off
NB
Do not land with full flaps deployed. Once in ground effect switch to normal mode
