Activating the Elevator-Tr (Ele -Tr) input

in the FLAP+ mixer (snap-flap)
The term Snap-Flap is used when elevator is mixed
into the camber-changing flaps or ailerons. This func-
tion is prepared in the mixer AILERON+ and FLAP+.
Input 4 for both mixers is Ele -Tr.
The suffix "-Tr" means "without trim". If you adjust the
elevator trim at the transmitter, the aileron and flap
settings are unaffected by the change.
!
Note: Snap-Flap and switches
If Snap-Flap is switched on at excessive airspeeds,
very high aerodynamic forces can occur which may
damage or even wreck the model. Please: take care
when using this function!
The procedure for setting up Snap-Flap:
a. Checking / changing the switch
The Ele -Tr input is switched using the mixer
switch Mix-1 (logical switch). Switch G with the
ON position "back" (G#) can be prepared as the
physical switch in assignment list 2 GLIDER.
- Main menu: ¡Setup
Assignment, Switches
- Menu:
Mix-1
In this menu you can also change the switch or
the switch position for Snap-Flap "ON":
- Open the menu point with ENTER
- Confirm the warning message with ENTER
- Operate the desired switch repeatedly
- Move the switch to the position for ON
- Close the menu point again with ENTER.
!
If you are using a three-position switch, only the
two end-points can be set as the ON position.

Set a test value of 15% control surface travel, then
check with the elevator stick (back-stick) that the
ailerons move down.
If so: hold the elevator stick in that position, and
set the desired travel.
If not: press the REV/CLR button to change the
value to -15%. Now hold the stick in position and
set the desired travel.

Activating the mixer V-TAIL+

12.9.2.
!
When you assign the V-tail servos, you will find
that the V-tail still does not respond to any control
commands, as the default value for all the mixer in-
puts is OFF.
For this reason you should first set both travel inputs
for Elevator to, say, 60% in the V-TAIL+ mixer:
£5x Mixer.V-TAIL+
¨Exit
š trv' trv#
Elevator– 60%
Rudder – OFF
Spoiler – OFF
Flap – OFF
Thr -Tr – OFF
12.9.3. Checking / changing the direction of
servo rotation
With the travel settings you have just entered, the V-
tail servos will now respond to the elevator stick.
Apply up-elevator (back-stick) and watch the V-tail. If
either or both servos rotate in the wrong direction, re-
verse them at this point.
- Main menu: Open ¤Servo
Select and open Calibrate
- Menu:
Select á
- Line:
- Press ENTER to select Parameter
- Press REV/CLR to reverse the servo direction
- Move the elevator stick to check the direction of
rotation
- If all is well, press ENTER to end the procedure.
If necessary, you can now reverse the second servo
or adjust the other inputs.
