REV — Servo Reversing
The servo reverse function may be used when you need to change the direction that a
servo responds to a control stick motion. When you use this function, BE SURE THAT YOUR
CONTROL IS MOVING THE CORRECT DIRECTION. If you are using any preprogrammed
mixers such as flaperon, be sure to set correct travels in the REV menu setting up the
preprogrammed function.

STRM — Subtrim Settings
The Subtrim window is used to make small adjustments or corrections in the neutral
position of each servo. The recommended procedure is to zero out both the trims (see
menu) and the subtrims (this menu). Next, mount the servo arms and set up your linkages so that
the neutral position of each control surface is as close to where it should be as possible, with the
arm 90° to the pushrod. Finally, use a small amount of subtrim to make fine corrections. We
recommend that you try to keep all of the subtrim values of as small as possible. Otherwise,
when the subtrims are large values, the servo's full range of travel may be restricted.
