- Page 3 Note:About flying While you are getting ready to fly,if you place your transmitter on the ground ,be sure that the wind won’t tip it over. If it is knocked over, the throttle stick may be accidentally moved, causing the engine to speed up. Also, damage to your transmitter may occur. Other than 2.4GHz system: Before taxiing, be sure to extend the transmitter antenna to its full length.collapsed antenna will reduce your flying range and cause a loss of control.It is a good idea to avoid pointing the transmitter antenna directly at the model, since the signal is weakest in that direction.

The FLAPERON mixing function uses one servo on each of the two ailerons, and uses them for both aileron and flap function. For flap effect, the ailerons raise/lower simultaneously.

Page 41: Aile Diff (Acro/ Glid 2A+1F/ Glid 2A+2F)
ACRO GLID FLAP-TRIM assigns the primary flaperon control [defaults to VR(A)] to allow trimming in flight of the flap action of flaperons. Note: Even if FLAP-TRIM is made active with AIL-DIFF, it will not have any effect. The ONLY function that allows control of the ailerons as flaps in the AIL-DIFF configuration is AIRBRAKE. Most modelers use AIRBRAKE, or programmable mixes, to move the flaps to a specified position via movement of a switch. -

Page 44: Dual Elevator Servos (With A Rudder) (Ailevator) (Acro)
Adjustability: • Rate: -100% (full up flap) to +100% (full down flap), with a default of +50% (one-half of the flap range is achieved when the ELEVATOR STICK is pulled to provide full up elevator.) • Switch: fully assignable. Also LOGIC SW (Lsw1 to 3) may be assigned. IF you set it to NULL, the mix does not work. -
Page 45: Snap Rolls (Acro)
Once AILEVATOR is activated, unless you zero out the aileron figures (see below), any time you move your ailerons or any programming moves your ailerons (ie. RUDDER-AILERON mixing), the radio automatically commands both elevator servos to also operate as ailerons. To deactivate this action, simply set the 2 aileron travel settings to 0 in the AILEVATOR function. -

The THR-DELAY function is used to slow the response of the throttle servo to simulate the slow response of a turbine engine. A 40% delay setting corresponds to about a one-second delay, while a 100% delay takes about eight seconds to respond. This function may also be used to create a “slowed servo” on a channel other than throttle. -

Before doing anything else to set up a glider or sailplane, first you must decide which MODEL TYPE best fits your aircraft. • GLID(1A+1F): The GLID (1A+1F) MODEL TYPE is intended for sailplanes with one or two aileron servos (or none), and a single flap servo (or two connected with a y-connector). This TYPE is meant to be a very simplistic version to set up a basic glider without a lot of added features. -
