OFFSET : Optional separate trims in addition to those for the normal condition. This function is used to automatically change
helicopter tends to drift to the right at high speed, so an aileron offset may be applied to offset the helicopter to the left.
The necessary elevator offset varies with model geometry, so it must be determined by noting collective pitch changes at
high speed. The rudder offset is affected by both revo. mixing and trim lever movement while in the offset function.
NOTE:
GOAL of EXAMPLE:
Set up separate trims for each of the
three idle-up conditions.
Adjust the idle-up 2 rudder trim to
correct for torque at high speeds.
Where next?
Adjustability:
• Complete switch assignability, plus a CONDITION SELECT
switches between individual trims for each of the idle-ups.
• When OFFSET is active (its switch is on), moving the TRIM LEVERS adjust
the stored offset, not the trims in the normal condition.
• When OFFSET is inactive (its switch is off), the OFFSET and any trim adjustments

• When OFFSET
• Rapid jumps caused by large offsets can be slowed using the DELAY function.
*During OFFSET operation, the aileron, elevator, and rudder travels are displayed on each trim
display in the Startup screen.
STEPS:
Open the OFFSET function.
Activate the function.
Change switch setting to Cond .
(No need to change SW .)
Select IDL2 .
Adjust trim settings as needed.
