Trim Tr. step
In addition to the generally interesting adjustment of
the increments in the column "Tr. step" (number of
trim increments for each "trim wheel click") for digital
trimming – separate adjustments for each of the four
trim wheels – in the case of the (later) programming
of flight phases in the second column of this menu
you can select whether the trimming of transverse,
altitude and side should operate "globally" in equal
measure over all flight phases or separately in each
(flight) "phase".
The "Time" column, on the other hand, is not of inter-
est for this initial programming.
The settings made up to this point are sufficient to
permit basic flight of winged and motorized mod-
els – though the latter does require a correctly set idle
stick direction in the "Motor on C1" line of the »Model
type« menu. However, the "fine-tuning" is still miss-
ing. The fine-tuning certainly adds to the enjoyment
of flying over the course of time. Therefore, if you can
already fly your model safely, you should delve into
the menu...
»Wing mixers«
... where various options are available, depending on
the specifications made in the »Model type« menu,
page 104.
294 Programming examples - Winged models
(page 114) Since this section deals with a model having only 2
servos in the wings, the Multi-flap menu beginning on
0.0s 0.0s page 182 is not shown.

Therefore, we begin with the "Brake settings" sub-menu:

If this display appears, your model is equipped with a
motor, contrary to the assumption of this section, and
therefore you have selected "front/rear" instead of
"none" in the line "Motor on C1" of the »Model type«
menu, page 94. Therefore, change this setting tempo-
rarily or change the "yes" entry in the "Motor" column
of the »Phase settings« menu, page 142, to "no" for
the currently active flight phase – Phase 1 in this case.

After this statement about mutual dependencies, back
to the topic:
If the ailerons are to be elevated for braking, an ap-
propriate value is entered into the "Crow" line after
activating the "AILE" column's value field. In addition,
a value should always be entered in the line below it,
"Diff.Reduct" (differentiation reduction), which corre-
sponds to the value you entered or would like to enter
on the first page of the »Wing mixers« menu in the
line "Aile.diff." (see figure above)! With this entry, on
actuation of the brake stick, the set aileron differentia-
tion is hidden again proportionally in order to increase
the downward the throw of the raised ailerons and
thus significantly improve its effect in the braking
phase.
A setting of the "Elevat. curve" mixer is then only
necessary if the flight speed of the model changes
too dramatically on actuation of the brake system. In
any case, you should try out the setting at a sufficient
and readjust, if necessary, whereby you should focus
less on the flight position than on maintaining the
"normal" flight speed of the model. Otherwise there
is the risk that the model plunges when engaging
the brake system, because it became too slow in the
meantime:
