vided that this menu point is unlocked (available) on
the transmitter concerned.
Whichever switch has been assigned … the respec-
tive switch will appear in the display together with a
switch symbol indicating the switch’s direction if actu-
ated, e. g. in the «Normal» flight phase.

Select the right-hand column at the lower edge of the
display marked with SEL and activate the value field
with a brief tap on the center SET key of the right
four-way button, the selection keys on the left or right
four-way button can now be used to alter the EXPO
value shown in the highlighted field, separately for
each of the two switch positions.
Now, for example, there is an opportunity to fly with
a linear curve characteristic with the switch in one
direction, and to preset a value other than 0 % for the
other switch direction:

At the same time, the Expo curve will be presented in

A simultaneous tap on the  or  keys of the
right four-way button (CLEAR) will reset a changed
entry field value displayed in inverse video back to
“0 %”.
Some examples of Expo values:
Servo travel Servo travel
Servo travel
Stick deflection
Stick deflection
Stick deflection
Expo = +100%
Expo = +50%
Expo = –100%
In each of these examples, the Dual Rate value
equals 100 %.
Combining Dual Rate and Expo
If values have been entered for both the Dual Rate
and the Expo function, the effects of both functions
will overlap, for example, as follows:
Servo travel Servo travel
Servo travel
Stick deflection
Stick deflection
Stick deflection
Expo = +100%, DR = 125%
Expo = +100%, DR = 50%
Expo = –100%, DR = 50%
Asymmetric setting of Dual Rate and Expo
To make an asymmetric setting, i. e. a Dual Rate
or Expo setting dependent on the direction of the
respective stick, first access the »Control switch«
menu and assign one of the C1 … C4 control
switches – “C3”, for example – to the desired transmit-
ter control, e. g. control 3 for the nick function. Do
not change the switching point for the stick’s neutral
position (0 %). Now return to the »Dual Rate / Expo«
menu and select the corresponding control function
(“Nick” in this example).
Now, with a brief tap on the center SET key of the
right four-way button, activate the switch assignment
and change to the expanded switches then use the
selection keys to move on to the previously defined
“C3” control switch:
