Air Brake (A.brake) - FUTABA 7CAP Instruction Manual

AIRBRAKE mixing(ACRO):
Like FLAPERON, AIRBRAKE is one function that is really made up of a series of pre-programmed mixes all done for you
within the radio. AIRBRAKE simultaneously moves the flap and elevator, and is usually used to make steep descents or
to limit increases in airspeed in dives.
This function is often used even on models without flaps as an easy way to use the flaperons.
Adjustability:
Activation: set positions by flipping S
Provides AIRBRAKE response immediately upon switch movement, going to a pre-set travel on each active channel
without any means of in-flight adjustment.
Channels controlled: Elevator and flap may be set independently in AIRBRAKE , including set to 0 to have no effect.
Note: If using FRAPERON with channel 5 or 7 the AIRBRAKE has separate settings for the aileron servos working
as flaperons and the flap.
GOAL of EXAMPLE:
Activate AIRBRAKE on a FLAPERON
model. Adjust the flap travel to 50%,
with negative elevator (push) of 10%.
