Offsets - FUTABA 10CAP Instruction Manual

OFFSETs

Unnecessary fusulage motion is generated when there are sudden changes in the servo position and variations in the
operating time between channels can be suppressed by using the delay function ( -dly- ).
NOTE: The same delay amount for elevator and rudder is recommended when using V-tail function.
START , SPEED , DISTANCE and LANDING ) These offset trims have same setting abilities basically except the switch and dial
assignment. For an example of trim settings, please see the following:

condition.
• SWITCH G (10CA) or E (10CH) is programmed for NORMAL , START, and SPEED
trims. SWITCH C is programmed for DISTANCE and LANDING trims. These

• Optional assignable knob ( CAMBER MIX ) to allow trimming in flight of the
*During OFFSET operation, the aileron and elevator travels are displayed on each
trim display in the Startup screen.
GOAL of EXAMPLE:
Set up a START to gain maximum
possible lift on launch.
Each Aileron: 50%.
Each Flap: 100%.
Elevator: -5% to compensate.

Note: knob is assignable. ( CAMBER MIX )
Where next?
These additional flight conditions contain different offset trims to make the
saiplane perform certain maneuvers more easily. Aileron differential functions
may be set to provide separate rates per condition selected.
Prior to setting up OFFSET , you must active the conditions and assign the
switches in the CONDITION/FUNCTION .
CONDITION/FUNCTION )
STEPS:
Open OFFSET function.
Switch to the START condition.
Set the rates. (Ex: AIL1 and 2 , 50% , FLP1
and 2 , 100% , ELEV -5% .)
Close the function.
