Servo Display - FUTABA 10CAG Instruction Manual

SUB-TRIM : makes small changes or corrections to the neutral position of each servo. Range is -120 to +120, with 0 setting,
the default, being no SUB-TRIM .
The recommended procedure is as follows:
• measure and record the desired surface position;
• zero out both the trims ( TRIM RESET menu) and the SUB-TRIMs (this menu);
• mount servo arms and linkages so that the control surface's neutral is as correct as possible; and
• use a small amount of SUB-TRIM
GOAL of EXAMPLE:
Adjust the flap servo's SUB-TRIM until
its center exactly matches the aileron
servo's center, as they work together as

GOAL of EXAMPLE:
View the result of reassigning channel
6 from VR(A) knob to three-position
SWITCH C.
Cycle the channel 6 servo.

We recommend that you center the digital trims before making SUB-TRIM
changes, and that you try to keep all of the SUB-TRIM values as small as
possible. Larger SUB-TRIM values affect the servo's range of travel is restricted
on one side.

The servo submenu includes two features:
• real-time bar-graph display to demonstrate exactly what commands the
transmitter is sending to the servos. (This can be particularly handy in setting
up models with complicated mixing functions, because the results of each
stick, lever, knob, switch input and delay circuit may be immediately seen.)
