4) Press the Navigation Pad 6 to highlight RATE>58%
5) Press the YES/+ or NO/- keys to set the desired Rate percentage value.
RATE setting range is -150% to 150%. The default setting is 58%. When the Rate percentage value is increased, Crow aileron
servo travel will increase. When the Rate percentage value is decreased, Crow aileron servo travel will decrease.
As you change the Point and Rate percentage values, you can use the graph and I/O numbers to visualize the ratio
between flap control stick movement and Crow aileron servo travel throughout the entire deflection range.
6) Repeat the previous procedures to change the Point and Rate percentage values for the desired remaining aileron servos.
Changing the Point and Rate Percentage Values - 9 Point Curve
Programming the Point and Rate percentage values on a Curve allows you to achieve maximum flexibility and fine-tuning for specific
uses. For example, one of the top F3J sailplanes uses a Crow setting where at half flap the ailerons are down (Camber for Crawl
mode) and at full flap that ailerons are up (Crow for deceleration). In this configuration, with the flaps half down, the ailerons
are down and at full flap, the ailerons are up. Programming the Point and Rate percentage values on a Curve allow you do this.
The Point and Rate percentage values work together to determine the position and the amount of servo travel of the ailerons based
on the position of the flap control stick. Nine different Points with varying Rates can be programmed onto the Curve. Use the Input
and Output display, along with the graph, to help with programming visualization. The Point that is currently selected will blink.
1) Press the Navigation Pad 6 to highlight POINT>5.
2) Press the YES/+ or NO/- keys to choose which Point you would like to
set a Rate percentage value for.
POINT setting range is 1 through 9. Point 1 is at the low end of the Curve and Point 9 is at the high end of the Curve. Point 5
is a the center of the Curve. The default Point is Point 5.
3) Press the Navigation Pad 6 to highlight RATE>0%.
4) Press the YES/+ or NO/- keys to set the desired Rate percentage value.
When you change the Rate percentage value for Points 2, 3, 4, 6,
7, and 8, INH will be displayed. When you press the YES/+ or NO/-
keys, INH will change to 0%.
RATE setting range is -150% to 150%. POINT 1, 5, and 9 default Rate percentage values are 0%.
As you change the Point and Rate percentage values, you can use the graph and I/O numbers to visualize the ratio
between control stick movement and servo travel throughout the entire deflection range.
5) Repeat the previous procedures to change the Point and Rate percentage values for the desired remaining aileron servos.
