in the «Normal» flight phase.

key of the right four-
way button, the selection keys on the left or right four-
way button can now be used to alter the EXPO value
shown in the highlighted field, separately for each of
the two switch positions.
Now, for example, there is an opportunity to fly with a
linear curve characteristic with the switch in one direc-
tion, and to preset a value other than 0 % for the other
switch direction:

At the same time, the Expo curve will be presented in

132 Program description - Dual Rate / Expo | Helicopter models
Some examples of Expo values:
Expo = +100%
Expo = +50%
Stick deflection
Stick deflection
In each of these examples, the Dual Rate value
equals 100 %.
Combining Dual Rate and Expo
If values have been entered for both the Dual Rate and
the Expo function, the effects of both functions will
overlap, for example, as follows:
Expo = +100%, DR = 125%
Expo = +100%, DR = 50%
Stick deflection
Stick deflection
Asymmetric setting of Dual Rate and Expo
To make an asymmetric setting, i. e. a Dual Rate or
Expo setting dependent on the direction of the respec-
tive stick, first access the »Control switch« menu and
assign one of the C1 ... C4 control switches – "C3", for
example – to the desired transmitter control, e. g. con-
trol 3 for the nick function. Do not change the switching
point for the stick's neutral position (0 %). Now return
to the »Dual Rate / Expo« menu and select the corre-
sponding control function ("Nick" in this example).
Now, with a brief tap on the centre
four-way button, activate the switch assignment and
Expo = –100%
change to the expanded switches then use the selec-
tion keys to move on to the previously defined "C3"
control switch:

Now use one of the selection keys to move into the
right column then move the nick stick into its appropri-
ate end-point to enter a separate Dual Rate value for
