– travel +
This column is used to set servo travel symmetrically
or asymmetrically for each side. The setting range is
0 ... 150 % of normal servo travel. The values set are
based on the settings that have been made for the
"midpoint" column.
To create a symmetric travel path, i. e. control-side
independent travel, the respective control (stick, pro-
portional control or switch) is to be put into a position
which covers travel to both sides of the marked frame.
Note:
It may be necessary to first assign a control
attached to one of the control channels 5 ...
16. If necessary, this is to be done in the
»Control adjust« menu, see page 118 or 122.
To set asymmetric travel, the respective control (stick,
proportional control or switch) is to be moved to the
side on which the marked frame only includes the
value to be changed.
The value setting is activated with a brief tap on the
centre
SET
key of the right touch pad. The value field
is shown highlighted. Values can be changed with the
selection keys of the right touch pad. Complete the
entry with a tap on the centre
SET
touch pad.
A simultaneous tap on the or keys of the
right touch pad (CLEAR) will reset the changed pa-

rameter displayed in inverse video back to "100 %".

In contrast to settings made with the

in this menu affect exclusively the respective

servo, independent of how the control signal for this

servo is produced, i. e. directly by a stick or by way of
any mixer functions.

Column 5 "–limit+"
The "– limit +" column is reached by moving the
marker frame, with the selection keys of the left or
right touch pad, to the right beyond the "– travel +"
column.

– travel +
– limit +
To create a symmetric limit, i. e. control-side independ-
ent limit, the respective control (stick, proportional con-
trol or switch) is to be put into a position such that the
marker frame covers both sides of the travel setting.
To set asymmetric travel, the respective control (stick,
proportional control or switch) is to be moved to the
side where it is to be set such that the marker frame
only includes the value to be changed.
A simultaneous tap on the or keys of the
right touch pad (CLEAR) will reset the entry field
value displayed in inverse video back to "0 %".
Example:
A servo is controlled separately by two
controls over a mixer and but, for model-
specific reasons, must only be operated over
a servo travel path of 100 % because, for example,
the rudder would mechanically collide with the
elevator if moved more than 100 %.
As long as only one control is used at a time, this is
no problem. But this does become a problem when
the signals are summed by the simultaneous use of
both controls (e. g. aileron and rudder) to total travel
in excess of 100 %. The linkage and servos could be
strained excessively ...
To prevent this, the travel should certainly be limited
by way of an individual travel limit. In the case of the
rudder used in the example, this would be a value
slightly less than 100 % – because it is assumed the
rudder would collide at 100 %.
