Flaperon mixing (FP)
This function allows the ailerons to be used both as ailerons and as flaps. The flap control dial (CH 6) operates the flap
function. To use flaperon mixing both ailerons must be operated by separate servos.
To activate flaperon mixing:
1. Connect the aileron servo in the right wing to channel 1 (aileron) in the receiver
and connect the aileron servo in the left wing to channel 6 (flaps) in the receiver.
2. Enter the programming mode and access the W.MIX menu using the MODE key.
3. Push the DATA INPUT lever until FP is displayed on the screen. Now the mixing is on. The
servo travels will automatically be reduced to 60% and 40%, but full servo throw will still be
achieved when the aileron stick and the flap control dial are moved to their full extremes.
4. Once this mix has been activated, move the servos to their full extremes to make certain they are not overdriving the
controls. If necessary, adjust the linkages to achieve the correct control throws.
V-tail mixing (v)
Intended for V-tail aircraft (such as a Beechcraft Bonanza), V-tail mixing allows the ruddervators to operate both as rudders
and elevators. The same as the other mixes, V-tail mixing requires that each ruddervator be operated by a separate servo.
To activate V-tail mixing :
1. Connect the left ruddervator servo to channel 2 (elevator) in the receiver and
connect the right ruddervator servo to channel 4 (rudder) in the receiver.
2. Enter the programming mode and access the W.MIX menu using the MODE key.
3. Push the DATA INPUT lever until v is displayed on the screen. Now the mixing is on. The
servo travels will be automatically reduced to 60%, but full servo throw will still be achieved
when the elevator stick and rudder stick are moved to their extremes.
4. Once this mix has been activated, move the servos to their full extremes to make certain
they are not overdriving the controls. If necessary, adjust the linkages to achieve the correct
control throws.
