[. . . ] · Elevators acting also as ailerons for extreme stunt flying or more realistic jet flying (optional). · Redundancy, for example in case of a servo failure or mid-air collision. Adjustability: Direction of each servo 's travel may be reversed in REVERSE or the set percentages may be reversed here. Elevator travels independently adjustable (both directions and percent). Optional action as ailerons (defaults to 50% response). This response cannot be activated/deactivated in flight. Setting AIL3 and 4 to 0 disables this feature. Note: if you want this, but on/off with a switch, set AIL3 and 4 to 0 here, and use 2 mixes ­ AIL-to-ELEV and AIL-to-AUX2(assign a switch) ­ to get aileron action from the elevator servos when the assigned switch is on. The AILEVATOR mixing function uses one servo on each of the two elevators, and combines the elevator function with the aileron function (unless aileron travel is set to 0). For aileron effect, the elevators are raised and lowered opposite of one another in conjunction with the ailerons. Once AILEVATOR is activated, unless you zero out the aileron figures (see below), any time you move your ailerons or any programming moves your ailerons (ie. RUDDER-AILERON mixing), the radio automatically commands both elevator servos to also operate as ailerons. To deactivate this action, simply set the 2 aileron travel settings to 0 in the AILEVATOR function. This way the elevators will work only as elevators. If using the elevators as ailerons as well, be sure to move the elevator/aileron stick while checking the servo motions. If a large amount of travel is specified, when the sticks are moved at the same time, the controls may bind. ) GOAL of EXAMPLE: Activate twin elevator servos. Deactivate the elevator-acting-asailerons portion of this function. Note: Depending upon your model's geometry, you may need to reverse one servo or set a negative percentage here. STEPS: Open the AILEVATOR function. INPUTS: for 1 second. (If basic, to AILEVATOR . again. ) Activate the function. Optional: adjust up/down travel when operating as ailerons. (Ex: 0. ) Optional: adjust total elevator travel of each servo. (Ex: right servo elevator travel to 98%, left to 96%. ) Close menu. to 96%. Adjust individual servo's SUB-TRIMs: see p. 52. 45 Using V-TAIL(ACRO): V-TAIL mixing is used with v-tail aircraft so that both elevator and rudder functions are combined for the two tail surfaces. [. . . ] All curves may be edited together in the ADVANCE menu. Activating an idle-up's throttle curve is what activates that idle-up. . 65, 68 Throttle cut or throttle kill: THR-CUT (ACRO / HELI) Offset mix which closes the throttle servo to a set position when the . assigned switch is moved to shut the engine off without having to fiddle with trim settings.
