To confi gure the setting, fi rst position the brake control
in the brake position at full travel (i.e. its end-point).
Then, briefl y tap the center
pad and enter a suitable value using the selection keys
on the left or right touch pad. To ensure a suffi ciently
strong braking effect, note that you should try to lower
the fl ap as low as is mechanically possible.

If required, i.e. if you have the feeling that you
will need to set pitch trim compensation when
the airbrakes are extended, you can program an
appropriate automatic mixer affecting the elevator at
this point.

please refer to the »Channel 1 curve« menu option

in particular in connection with aileron differential to
suppress adverse yaw and thus make it easier to fl y
"clean" curves. You can of course still issue separate
commands to the rudder.
The adjustment range of ± 150 % lets you set the
direction of defl ection as appropriate. Optionally, this
mixer can be activated and deactivated with of the
switches or a control switch that is not self-restoring
so the model can be controlled with only the ailerons
or rudder if desired.
Typically, this mixer is set so that the rudder is
defl ected to the same side as the upward-oriented
aileron, and you will fi nd that setting a value of
around 50 % is usually highly appropriate.
Settings are always made symmetrically relative to
the neutral point of the aileron joystick.

To provide support for the elevator for tight turns
and aerobatics, this mixer can be used to make the
fl ap function follow controls sent to the elevator. The
mixer direction chosen must ensure that the fl aps are
defl ected downwards when the elevator is oriented
upwards and vice versa for a downward-oriented
elevator – i.e. in opposite directions. This mixer can
be made optionally on/off switchable with one of the
switches or a control switch that is not self-restoring.
