Delta And Flying Wing Models - GRAUPNER MC-32 Manual

Delta and flying wing
Of course, the general comments regarding the in-
stallation and the adjustment of the RC system to a
model at the beginning of the wing model program-
ming on page 288 also applies for delta and flying
wing models! Similarly, the comments for test flying
and fine-tuning the settings to the programming of
flight phases also apply.

Delta and flying wing models differ significantly from a
"normal" flight model due to their unique characteris-
tic shape and geometry. The differences in the servo
arrangement, on the other hand, are more subtle. For
example, with "classic" delta/flying wing models, only
two rudders are normally provided. They are respon-
sible for both "transverse" and "height/depth", like the
side rudder/elevator function on a V-tail unit.
With more elaborate designs, on the other hand, it
may be the case that one (or two) interior rudders
have only an elevator function and the exterior ai-
lerons only support the height/depth function, under
certain circumstances. Even with a 4, or indeed up
to 8, flap wing the use of camber flap functions and/
or even a crow system is nowadays entirely possible.
In all these cases, however, the following assignment
of the receiver outputs should be used, see also
page 65. Unneeded outputs a simply left free:

... the necessary settings are made:
• "Motor an C1"

To the extent necessary, expand default "2 AIL" by
4 AIL or 1, 2 or 4 camber flaps ("1 FL", "2 FL" or "4

• "Brake"
stays as is, only interesting for a delta wing or
flying wing of type "2/4 AIL 1/2/4 FL". In this case,
refer to the text under "Brake offset" on page 105.
These model type specifying settings primarily affect
the functions made available in the »Wing mixers«
menu. Therefore, the options are discussed separately
for two-flap and multi-flap models in the following:

By retaining the standard default "2 AIL" in the "Ai-

including the trim function, are automatically mixed
by percentage on the software side. However, on the
