  Both sticks are equipped for digital trim-
ming. With each brief push (one "click") on
a trim switch-key it will change its neutral position by
one increment. Holding the trim switch-key longer will
cause trimming to run in the corresponding direction at
increasing speed.
The current position is shown on the screen and the
adjustment is also made "audible" with acoustic tones.
This makes finding the mid-point during flight easy,
without looking at the screen. If the mid-point is over-
run, a brief motion pause will be inserted.
Current trim values are automatically stored when a
model memory change is made.
By default the digital trims of the mc-16
mc-20 HoTT transmitters always apply to each
flight phase separately within a particular model mem-
ory – with the exception of the throttle / brake stick trim,
generally abbreviated to control function "C1" (channel
1).
If the »Stick mode« menu is unlocked, it is possible to
convert the digital trims from the default "PH" (phase)
setting to "GL" (global), although the C1 trim is always
"global", i. e. it is independent of flight phases.
This settings are visualized in the base screen by a
"shadow" on trim bars:
• shadow present = global,
• no shadow = flight phase dependent.

in the screen-shot on the right under the title ""Tr"

dependent"; this is the left / right function of the right-
hand stick, and assumes the default "Mode 1" trans-

Except for "Channel 1", the desired line can be reached
by using the selection keys of the left or right four-way
button. Once the appropriate function field has been
selected and then the centre SET key of the right four-
way button is touched briefly, the field will appear in
inverse video and the desired setting can be made with
the selection keys of the right four-way button.
This column can be used to switchover trim effect from
"GL(obal)" to "PH(ase)" and vice versa, for example:

• "Global"
The position of the respective trim function is effec-
tive "globally" for all flight-phases programmed for
the given model, page 146.
• "Phase"
The position of the respective trim function is ef-
fective on a phase-specific basis and will be auto-
matically stored upon change of flight phase so that
the setting is again available following a return to
this flight phase.
A simultaneous tap on the  or  keys of the right
four-way button (CLEAR) will reset the option back to
"Global".
