9. Use the arrow to go to the next menu “Mixer”.
What is a mixer?
When we say mixer, we mean when not just the basic function
(e.g. elevation) but also additional controls (e.g. throttle) can
control the servo. Example: Your model gains altitude on its
own accord when the throttle is increased. This can be com-
pensated by mixing the throttle in the elevator. The elevator
is therefore controlled by the THROTTLE and the ELEVATOR.
· Mixing in the elevator
Undesired climb/descent when operating throttle, spoilers or
aps can be compensated for. Elevation is the main input
and is controlled by the ELEVATION stick. The other three
inputs are mixed and controlled by the THROTTLE, SPOIL-
ERS and FLAPS. The result of the mix goes to the elevator.
- Select aps, spoilers or throttle
- Set the desired values using the – and + buttons or
- Tap on the middle of the value to open the character and
number eld. The current value can be deleted and a new
one entered.
· Mixing the aileron
The aileron mix is done in the same way. Here, there are
ve options:
- Aileron (aileron mix - for aileron differential)
- Elevator (aileron mix - snap ap) mixing the aileron with
harder settings acting as a braking function
- Flaps (aileron mix - aperon) use aileron as “aps”, with
the possibility of extending them upwards
- Spoilers (aileron mix - half buttery) mixing the ailerons
with the aps
- Offset (aileron offset) the current mixer values are shown
in the display.
10. Use the arrow
to go to the next menu “Control
settings”.
- Select the relevant servo/function in the top eld In the
next three elds, you can set the dual rate and exponential
values.
- Tap on the middle of the value to open the character and
number eld. The current value can be deleted and a new
one entered.
The current setting is shown on the graphic display.
Finally, press “Save”, and the menu switches to the timer
menu and you have successfully programmed your rst model.
Note on using the ight phases:
If you use or activate ight phases on the Cockpit SX7 or SX9,
you need to set the mixers for each ight phase separately,
or enter the inputs made during one ight into the other ight
phases as well (switch between ight phases with the switch
at the side).
Example: If you have programmed aileron in the aps upon
starting or during normal ight, you need to then also enter
these values for the landing ight phases as well.
