1.7.4.3.7 S
On-ground Setup
After setting up and testing the GSA 28 based autopilot and yaw damper systems,
the pilot can configure the trim system.
1) Set the Trim Motor Control to Enabled using the Autopilot Roll Servo,
Autopilot Pitch Servo, and Yaw Damper configuration pages for all servos
that are connected to auxiliary trim motors.
a) The recommended setting the Fastest Trim Motor Speed is 100% (this
value will be adjusted during the in air setup).
b) The recommended setting the Slowest Trim Motor Speed is 25% (this
value will be adjusted during the in air setup).
NOTE: The Maximum Trim Run Time entry allows optional configuration of a time
limit for use with a manual electric trim. When the manual trim input switch is
pressed, the electric trim motor will stop running after the time limit expires, and
will not run again until the trim input switch is released and pressed again. This can
help prevent "trim runway" caused by a stuck trim input switch. If the maximum
trim motor run time is not set, the electric trim motor will run indefinitely as long
as the manual trim input switch is held. Trim run time has no effect on auto trim.
2) Return to the Flight Controls configuration page to set the airspeed
thresholds for the fastest and slowest trim movement.
a) The recommended setting for the Trim High Airspeed Threshold is the
airspeed typically used to fly the normal aircraft landing pattern.
b) The recommended setting for the Trim Low Airspeed Threshold is the
airspeed typically used for cruise flight.
3) Re-verify proper trim movement in described in Section 1.7.4.3.3.
