... which means that the only settings listed are the
ones that can actually be confi gured. The resulting
menu structure gains not only in clarity but also
prevents potential programming errors.
For example, if "2AIL" has been preset, display of the
»Wing mixers« menu would appear (without camber
fl aps) as shown below:

In the »
Model type« menu, (page 94), control of
2AIL
the brake fl ap mixer can be reprogrammed from
control input 1 to 7, 8 or 9 and a corresponding

offset point can be set.

Braking with raised ailerons and, if present,
lowered fl aps (crow system) can be implemented
by making appropriate settings on the "Crow" line
of the "Brake settings" sub-menu.
If you would like to alternate between the C1 stick
controlling an electric drive system and a butterfl y
system, then you can use the options in the
"Motor" column on the »Phase settings« menu –
refer to the example on page 279.
You can also use the opportunity to set switch
times for a "soft" transition from fl ight phase to
0%
fl ight phase on the »Phase settings« menu (see
page 142).

»Mix only channel« (see page 205) and use it
for another purpose with the help of a "free mixer"
(see page 193).
If "2AIL" is set in the »
Model type« menu, page
94, then fl ight-phase dependent fl ap functionality
can be achieved with appropriate offset settings for
input 5 in the »Control adjust« menu, page 108.
For almost any menu option, you have the option
of checking your settings by switching to the
servo display screen, which is accessed with a
simultaneous tap on the  selection keys of
the left touch pad.
Caution:
With aileron actuation the bars of the »Servo
display« move in the same manner and in the
opposite manner with camber changing fl ap
actuation.
Note that if two fl ap servos have been selected,
any transmitter control assigned to input 7 will be
decoupled in the software in order to avoid errors
in operating the fl aps. The same applies to input
10 and the selection "2AIL 4FL".
A range of options are available for positioning
fl aps. You can ...
a) ... simply accept one position per fl ight phase,
by setting only the corresponding trim values.
b) ... vary the fl aps positioned by a) with a
transmitter control assigned to "Input 6" in
the »Control adjust« menu, (page 108),
and if desired by also selecting fl ight-phase
dependency "PH" in the "Type" column.
The selected transmitter control directly controls
the two fl ap servos located on receiver outputs 6
and 7 and, as required, also the two FL2 servos
connected to outputs 9 and 10 – assuming that
corresponding fl aps have been specifi ed on the
"Aileron/camber fl aps" line in the »Model type«
menu. This transmitter control indirectly
