Aileron/elevator control stick - Operates the servos connected to channel 1 (aileron) and channel 2 (elevator) in the
receiver.
Trim levers (all) - Used to shift the neutral or center position of each servo as labeled in the diagram. Once either trim lever
is operated, the trim position is displayed on the LCD screen. Also once either edit key is operated, all trim positions are
displayed sequentially on the LCD screen.
NOTE: The throttle trim lever is intended for fine tuning the throttle servo when the engine is at idle. Throttle trim does not
affect the throttle servo when the throttle control stick is all the way up (so idle r.p.m. can be adjusted without affecting
throttle settings through the rest of the stick movement).
