FUTABA 7C-2.4GHz - ELEVON Control Configuration; Using ELEVON in ACRO Mode

There are 4 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.
• Dual Elevator servos. Model uses 2 elevator servos, see AILVATOR(ACRO.) see p. 45.
• Tail-less model. Model uses 2 wing servos together to create roll and pitch control. see ELEVON. see p. 44.
• 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 three tail-type functions (AILVATOR, V-TAIL, and ELEVON) can be used at a time.
(See the wing type example on page 41.)
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.
Adjustability:
• Requires use of CH1 and CH2.
• Independently adjustable aileron/elevator travel.
• Adjustable aileron differential.
NOTE: If ELEVON is active, you cannot activate FLAPERON or AILVATOR. You must inhibit the last function to activate
NOTE: Be sure to move the elevator and aileron sticks to full deflection during setup. If a large amount of travel is specified,
when the AILERON and ELEVATOR STICKS are moved at the same time the controls may bind.
