Setting up Landing function

1. Use the

Edit Up Down

arrow keys to select the

LAND

window. Depending on the position of

the landing switch, the display will show a flashing OFF or ON. The Flt. Mode switch turns

on LAND when all the way forward.

LAND 0

OFF ON

2. First the amount of elevator offset is programmed. A small arrow is displayed over the

numeral 2 (representing elevator). You may adjust the amount of travel with

the

Data +Increase and –Decrease

keys. You may use anywhere between -

100% and +100%, but a small value of ±10% or less is the recommended starting value. Be

careful as this has a very powerful effect on the model’s trim. Press the

Active/Inhibit (Clear)

key if you wish to reset to 0%.

3. To get to the flap travel setting, press the

Cursor Right

key. The small triangle

is now displayed above the numeral 6, indicating the flap channel. You may

input any desired flap travel with the

Data +Increase and –Decrease

keys. The default is 0%,

and you may set this anywhere from -100 to +100% (check that there is no binding with large

flap deflections and aileron commands). With flaperons, large motions should also be

avoided because of reduced aileron effectiveness. You may return to the 0% settings by

hitting the

Active/Inhibit (Clear)

key.

Note: At first, be very cautious using the LAND function when you are flying slowly, as there

could be a loss of roll authority. Check out how it works at high altitude first.

FLPT

— Flap Trim Function

The Flap Trim function is used to specify the amount of flap travel produced by motion of

the flap control (the CH6 knob). With flaperons active, it controls the motion of both ailerons.

2. Pressing the

Data +Increase

–Decrease

key to input your desired flap motion setting. The

30% default value produces “reasonable” travel for many models, but you must try it out on your

own model to be sure. A 100% setting causes extreme travel and is not recommended. You may

want to set it to a smaller number, say 10% for starters. If you wish to return to the default 30%
