… of the »Wing mixers« menu, set the desired throw
of the ailerons by actuation of the C1 stick (“brake”)
upward. Then, if applicable, switch to the “FL column
in order to specify the desired through of the flaps
with C1 actuation downward (hidden in the figure
above). This flap position is referred to as “Crow posi-
tion” or “Butterfly; see also page 183.
In the line “D.red” (differentiation reduction), enter a
value which corresponds to the value entered or want
to enter on the first page of the »Wing mixers« menu
in the “Aile.diff. line.
With the “Elevat curve” mixer the normally occurring
“Upward tilting” of the model on the raising of the
ailerons can be automatically suppressed. The sui-
table correction values for the respective value must
be tested out through flight. Set this mixer so that the
flight speed of the model does not change too much
with the brake system extended in comparison with
the “normal” flight speed. Otherwise, there is the risk,
among other things, that the model plunges when the
brake system is retracted, e. g. for the extension of a
landing approach which is too short.
If everything is correctly set so far, only the motor
is controlled with the C1 stick in the “Normal” flight
phase, whereas this should be switched off in the
flight phase “landing” (Servo 1 in »Servo display«
independent of “Throttle min front/rear” to -100 %
or adequately for a servo travel setting deviating by
100 %, if necessary). In this flight phase the C1 stick
then only controls the raising of the ailerons and, if
applicable, the lowering of the flaps with the neutral
point in the C1 control position selected per offset.
»Phase assignment« (page 158)
Select the switch symbol under “C” with one of the se-
lection keys. Following a brief tap on the center SET
key of the right four-way button, actuate the desired
switch, e.g “2”.
Phase assignment
A B
C D E F
1 normal
2
prior
combi
Both switch positions, in other words ON (I) and
OFF ( ), are initially assigned at the bottom right of
the display to phase «1 Normal». Select this value
field with one of the selection keys then activate the
phase selection list that was set up in the »Phase
settings« menu with a brief tap on the center SET
key of the right four-way button. For example, you
name the phase for the front switch position “normal”
and “landing” for the rear position (or vice versa):
Phase assignment

C D E F

These phase names then appear in all flight-phase
dependent menus and, of course, also in the base
screen of the transmitter.
Now switch to the «Landing» flight phase and in the
“Crow” line of the sub-menu …
phase timer is automatically stopped and hidden in
the base screen. More about this can be found on
page 166.
Now move the marker frame over the “ph.Tim” col-
umn to the “Motor” column to the right. Here you
can decide with “yes/no” in which phase the motor
is controlled by the throttle/brake stick and the brake
system to be adjusted in the “Brake settings” sub-
menu of the »Wing mixers« menu should be shut off
(= “yes”) and vice versa (= “no”):
Pha1
Pha2
Pha3
Name motor
Pha4
Pha5
normal
yes
Landing
no
Now move the marker frame once more to the right
and enter an appropriate switching time after activa-
tion of the value field of the “Sw.Time” column; for
example:
Pha1
Pha2
Pha3
Name Sw.time
Pha4
Pha5
normal
Landing
1.1s
0.1s
0.1s
0.1s
1.1s
Then you must assigned these two flight phases to
a switch with which you can switch between the two
flight phases during the flight. In this case, a single
switch is sufficient. It should be easy to reach, how-
ever, so that you can still switch between “motor” and
“brake” during a landing approach, for example, with-
out having to release a stick.
The assignment of the selected switch takes place in
the menu …
