Trim Settings
Trimming allows models to fly straight and level with
the control sticks in their central positions, and with
no input from the pilot. Adjusting the trims during
each flying session is normal, as outside factors can
affect flight characteristics. Set trims can be left alone
until the natural flight path of the model changes and
re-adjustment is required.
To configure the trim settings, from the main display
press the BASE menu gear icon (green "B") to bring
up the BASE submenu screen:

The two control sticks come with digital trimming.
Trim can be adjusted incrementally by moving the
control sticks in short bursts, or with increasing speed
by moving and holding the control stick in the desired
direction.
The current trimming positions are displayed in the
main display, and all adjustments are audible. It is
possible to find middle position during model use

without looking at the display; when passing over
middle position, a brief pause is inserted.
The current trimming values are automatically saved
when the model memories are changed.
The default factory original trim setting for the mz-24
Pro HoTT transmitter is automatically saved along
with each model memory but can be changed by as-
signing a different trim setting to each flight phase.
Phase Dependent Settings
The phase display allows storage of phase-specific
000%
values. Phase name is visible in green in the upper
4.2V
left side of the display, titled Phase #. Up to 6 phases
can be added and saved in the FUNCTION submenu
PHASE (page 120). Change between the different
phases by assigning switches.

With each click, the four digital trimming controls shift
the neutral position of the respective control stick by
an adjustable increment (between 00 and 10) in each
direction. The maximum trimming path is always ap-
proximately ±30 % of the control path, independent of
the selected number of trimming steps.
Notice
This setting is always Common, independent of
the CO or SE setting.
