Note that the function
defaults to no difference in
down travel vs. up travel. If
you want differential travel,
simply adjust each side.

3.3.6 Air Break (ACRO/ GLID)
ACRO GLID
Like FLAPERON and AILEVATOR, AIRBRAKE is one function that is really made up of a series of
pre-programmed mixes all done for you within the radio. AIRBRAKE (often called "crow" or BUTTERFLY
- see GLID, p. 62 for details) simultaneously moves the flap (if i nstalled), twin ailerons (if installed) and
elevator, and is usually used to make steep descents or to limit increases in airspeed i n dives.
This function is often used even on models without flaps as an easy way to use the flaperons and
FLAP-ELEVATOR mixing together.
ADJUSTABILITY:
Activation: be proportional by moving the THROTTLE STICK, or set positions by flipping the assigned
switch.
Switch: Mix SWITCH is selectable.
Also LOGIC SW (Lsw1 to 3) may be assigned.
Linear(Inversely proportional to THROTTLE STICK): Provides a proportional increase in amount of
AIRBRAKE action as THROTTLE STICK is lowered and assigned switch is on. It provides gradually more
AIRBRAKE as you slow the engine. Includes selectable stick position where AIRBRAKE begins, gradually
increasing to the same setting as the THROTTLE STICK is lowered. If you would like t o have the airbrake
be directly proportional to throttle stick, you will
need to reverse the THR-REV function. Note that this changes the throttle stick direction for all models.
Offset: Provide AIRBRAKE response immediately upon switch movement, going to a pre-set travel on
each active channel without any means of in-flight adjustment.
During Airbrake operation, the elevator travel is displayed on the elevator trim display in the Startup
screen.
•Delayed reaction: You can suppress sudden changes in your model's attitude when AIRBRAKE
BUTTERFLY is activated by setting the delay (delay-ELEV) item, to slow down the elevator response,
allowing the flaps/ailerons/elevator to all reach their desired end point together. A setting of 100% slows the
servo to take approximately one second t o travel the prescribed distance. (GLID: B.FLY-ELEV function)
Adjustable in flight (ACRO): Using the aileron (when AILE-DIFF or FLAPERON is activated) and
elevator trim lever in flight can be set to adjust the aileron and elevator settings in your airbrake rather than
adjusting the model's actual aileron and elevator trim. This allows easy adjustment for any ballooning while
in flight. When the airbrake switch is moved to off the trim are again adjusting the normal elevator trim.
Channels controlled: Elevator, twin ailerons and f lap may be set independently in AIRBRAKE, including
set to 0 to have no effect.
If FLAPERON is active, the travel of the ailerons can be independently adjusted for the servos plugged into
