(forward or reverse). Sequences appear throughout function

resulting in properly damage and or injury.

You can program multiple functions to sequentially activate in

response to an assigned switch. For example, an assigned Gear

switch can open gear doors, lower the gear, then close the doors.

In reverse, gear doors open, the gear retracts and the gear doors

close.

You can assign each Sequencer function to a switch in most

Function screens such as Flight Mode, Dual Rate, Mixing, Throttle

Curve, Pitch Curve, etc.

You can assign several functions to a sequence to decrease

the number of controls you need to touch during complex flight

transitions—for example, applying your assigned dual rates and

exponential when the landing gear deploys and the flight mode

changes.

If you select an S-Number-A sequence (e.g. S2A), the sequence

operates as a timed 5-position switch. An S-Number-B sequence

operates as a timed 3-position switch. The 5 positions correspond

to the sequencer values shown on the time delay graph in the

second Sequencer screen. In a function screen, highlight each

point (0-4) and select the switch position desired for a function to

be active.

When S1B (or another sequence-number-B) is selected as

a switch in a function, the sequence will operate as a timed

3-position switch. The 3 positions act as 'kick points' of the

movement at fixed percentages (equal thirds) of the sequencer

output. In a function screen, highlight each point (0-2) and select

the switch position desired for a function to be active.

them as necessary in the Servo Setup menu option.

When the entire swashplate moves up or down:

1. Adjust the mix value for the Aileron and Elevator channels. If

the servos do not move in the correct direction, change the

direction of the mix—for example, a positive value instead of

a negative value.

2. Adjust the mix value for the Pitch. If the swashplate does not

move In the correct direction, change the direction of the value

(negative instead of positive).

Always enable Expo when using a standard rotating-arm servo.

The Expo delivers linear movement of the swashplate from a

standard rotary servo. When Expo is inhibited, the arm on a

rotary servo moves on a curved patii with decreased swashplate

movement at the extremes of the servo arm travel.

NOTICE: Do not enable Expo when using a linear servo.

Electronic E-Rlng

This feature prevents over driving servos by limiting servo travel if

the sum of your cyclic and pitch inputs exceeds servo limits.

Gyro

The Gyro menu option enables you to assign a gyro gain value

to an independent switch or a Flight Mode. Assign the receiver

channel connected to the gyro, then assign the switch for gyro

options. You can also assign values to available switch positions

(from 1 to 5 rates are available, depending on the switch

assigned). Make sure the gyro operates correctly and

compensates in the correct direction.

Mixing

Cydic to Throttle

Cyclic-to-throttle mix prevents rpm loss when aileron, elevator or

rudder inputs are given. This mix advances the throttle position

with cyclic or rudder control to maintain rpm. At full throttle,

Cyelic-to-Throttle mixing prevents the throttle from over driving

the servo,

SMPOHTANT: Do not use Cyclic to throttle mix when using a

governor.

To verify that the Cyclic to Throttle mix is working properly and in

the correct direction, move the flight mode switch to one of the

active positions. Move the programmed cyclic or rudder channel,

noting the throttle position. The throttle position should increase.

If the throttle decreases, then the opposite value (positive vs.

negative) is needed.

Swashplate

The Swashplate Mix typically corrects swashplate timing issues by

mixing Aileron to Elevator and Elevator to Aileron. When adjusted

correctly, the Swashplate causes the helicopter to roll and pitch

accurately with minimal interaction.

SAIL Mixing

For each of these mixes, you can program each flight mode with different mix values or at 0% if no mix is desired for that specific flight

mode. Programming values include independent control of the direction and amount a slave surface moves in relationship to the master

surface.

Aiteron to Rudder

The Aileron to Rudder mix is commonly used for coordinated

turns. When active, as aileron is applied the rudder moves in

the same direction as the turn (right aileron input results in right

rudder output). If you assign the flight mode to a switch, a Sub

Switch option allows you to assign an additional switch to activate

up to 3 Aileron to Rudder mixes for that flight mode.

Aileron to Flap

The Aileron to Rap mix allows the entire trailing edge of the wing

(aileron and flap) to operate as ailerons. When active, as aileron is

applied the flaps also move. Always program the flaps to move in

the same direction as the turn (so that right aileron is equivalent to

flaps moving as right ailerons).

ElewaforteFIap

Elevator to Flap mix creates additional lift, allowing a tighter turn.

The entire trailing edge of the wing (aileron and flap) operates

as flaps (camber increase) when you apply elevator. An offset is

provided, which is typically used for Snap Flaps. With Snap Rap,

no Elevator to Flap mix occurs until the offset value is reached.

Typically, this offset is at 70% up elevator so that beyond 70%

the down flap mix comes in, providing additional lift for more

aggressive turning (for tight thermals or racing turns).

Flap to Etewater

Flap to Elevator mix prevents pitch up tendency that occurs when

you apply Crow or Butterfly. This mix is typically used only with the

Camber System. The Flap to Elevator mix operates as a curve so

that the elevator moves down the most during the first 20% of flap

deployment, decreases over the next 40%, then remains the same

from 60 to 100% of flap travel.

For sailplanes with ailerons/tips/flaps, make sure an appropriate

Sailplane Type is selected so that tips appear in the transmitter as
