Elevon (See Tail Types); Tail Types; Elevon - FUTABA 7CAP Instruction Manual

There are 3 basic tail types in aircraft models:
Simple. Model uses one elevator servo and one rudder servo (or multiple servos on a Y-harness). This is the default.
Tail-less model. Model uses 2 wing servos together to create roll and pitch control. see ELEVON. see p. 45.
V-TAIL. Model uses 2 surfaces, at an angle, together to create yaw and pitch control. see V-TAIL. see p. 46.
Note: Only one of the two tail-type functions ( V-TAIL, and ELEVON) can be used at a time.
(See the wing type example on page 42.)
Using ELEVON(ACRO ): used with delta wings, flying wings, and other tailless aircraft that combine aileron and
elevator functions, using two servos, one on each elevon. The aileron/elevator travel can be adjusted independently.
This is also popular for ground model use, such as tanks, which drive two motors together for forward, and one motor
forward/one backward for turning. Also aileron differential can be adjusted in this programming.
NOTE: If ELEVON is active, you cannot activate FLAPERON. You must deactivate the last function to activate ELEVON.
NOTE: Be sure to move the elevator and aileron sticks to full deflection during setup. If large travels are specified, when

GOAL of EXAMPLE:
Activate ELEVON.
Adjust aileron differential to +10%.
Where next?
Adjustability:
• Requires use of CH1 and CH2.
• Independently adjustable aileron/elevator travel.
• Adjustable aileron differential.
S are moved at the same time the controls may bind or run out of travel.

Optional: adjust the aileron
differential.
(Ex: +10%. )
