During slow flight when extending flaps, automatic
proportionally correction of elevator is made, thus the
pitch attitude of the model becomes independent of
the position of the flaps. The mix portion is entered in
the code "F-E", the INC and DEC buttons, between
0 and ±125%. Next the mixer neutral point must be
specified. The mixer must be informed which position
of the input (normally sliding control 6) for the flaps,
corresponds to normal flight (flaps neutral). Thus the
elevator takes this position to be its neutral, and only
when the flaps are moved from this position does the
mixer affect the elevator. pressing the CH SEL
button to call up the offset screen. Move the control
to the required neutral position (e.g. the end position
of the flap control) and press the CLEAR button.
The offset, the deviation from the control centre
position, is indicated in the display. A switch
connected to socket 5 of the transmitter board can
be used to switch off this function.
To assist the elevator with close turning flight and
aerobatics, the flaps can be linked to the elevator
and are driven out proportionally to the increase the
wing lift. The value in the code "E-F" can be varied
using, the INC and DEC buttons between 0 and
±125%. The mixer can be also switched off with an
external switch connected to socket 4.
