Important general notice:
Do not let control surfaces and servos strike their
mechanical end-stops when large deflections are
set! This is especially relevant in relation to the
functions “AI” and “FL”. Use the “- limit +”
option (travel limit) available in the “Servo adjust-
ment” menu (page 102), as required.

A value entered into the “EL  FL” line offers sup-
port to the elevator during tight curves and aerobat-
ics. This “EL  FL Offset” line determines the offset
value introductory point where this percentage of
effect on flaps is to take place for elevator action.
• With an offset value of 0 %, flaps will be affected
by elevator action beginning with the neutral posi-
tion of the elevator stick by the percentage set in
the “EL  FL” line.
• With an offset value other than 0 %, flaps will be
affected by movement of the elevator stick, in
either the “up” or “down” direction, only after rea-
ching the preset offset point.
To set this offset point, put the elevator stick at the off-
set point to be set (in either of the two possible direc-
tions). A brief tap on the center SET key of the right
four-way button will store this position.
Tap on the center SET key of the right four-way but-
ton with the elevator stick in its centered position to
set the offset value back to 0 % again. If a switch is
assigned in column “Switch”, the effect produced with
the elevator on flaps can be switched on and off.
Brake settings
Notes:
• The “Brake settings” menu is switched “off” if: “Mo-
tor on C1 forward / back” in the »Model type«
menu, page 104, AND the “Motor” column of the
»Phase settings« menu, page 152, are set to
“yes” for the currently active flight phase. Switch
the flight phase if required:
• The “brake mixers” described below can also – and
should also – be configured to be specific to indi-
vidual flight phases.

Note:
The Offset, i. e. the activation direction, is also set
in the »Model type« menu, page 104. This offset
should be set to about +90 % of stick travel (if the C1
stick is used, this is generally located at the forward
position of the stick). To extend the flaps, the stick
must therefore be moved back towards the pilot. The
remaining stick travel of around 10 % then has no ef-
