To provide support for the elevator for tight turns and
aerobatics, this mixer can be used to make the ai-
leron function follow controls sent to the elevator. The
mixer direction chosen must ensure that the ailerons
are deflected downwards when the elevator is orient-
ed upwards and vice versa for a downward-oriented
elevator – i. e. in opposite directions. This mixer can
be made optionally on/off switchable with one of the
switches that is not self-restoring or a control switch.
To configure symmetrical mixer values, move the
elevator stick to its center position, so that the marker
frame surrounds both value fields. To configure asym-
metric values, move the stick to the corresponding
side.
Values in the range -150 % to +150 % are possible, so
as to adjust the function to the direction of servo rota-
tion or direction of aileron movement.
A simultaneous tap on the or keys of the
right four-way button (CLEAR) will reset a changed
value in a given active (inverse video) field back to
0 %.
The “typical” values configured for this mixer are
single-digit or low two-digit values.
Model type: “2/4AIL 1/2/4FL”
If you have entered “2AIL 1FL” for the “Aileron/camber
flaps” line on the »Model type« menu, page 104,
then the “Wing mixers menu” on your transmitter will
match the following screen image:

However, if you have entered “2AIL 2FL” in the “Ai-
leron/ flap” line of the »Model type« menu, see page
104, of the standard eight-channel mc-16 HoTT
transmitter, or “2/4AIL 2/4FL” on the mc-16 transmit-
ter with twelve channels unlocked, and the standard
twelve-channel mc-20 HoTT, then your transmit-
ter’s “Wing mixer menu” should look like this:

Multi-flap menu

Regardless of the combination of aileron and flap ser-
vos you choose, all of the parameters available can
be adjusted separately for each flight phase.
Note:
For almost any menu option, you have the option
of checking your settings by switching to the servo
display screen, which is accessed with a simultane-
ous tap on the selection keys of the left four-way
button. If you do, note however that the bars on the
»Servo display« move in the same direction for ailer-
ons and in the opposite direction for flaps.
Before we address the details of this menu we would
like to provide a brief explanation of the different dis-
play modes for the multi-flap menu:
Model type: “2 AIL 1 FL”
If servos have been connected to the receiver as de-
scribed on page 73 and selected accordingly in the
»Model type« menu, page 104, then the abbrevia-
tions “AILE” and “FLAP” refer to the following flaps:

FL FL AI

Since the options available on the wing mixer menu
and its sub-menus vary according to the number
of aileron and flap servos specified on the »Model
type« menu, page 104, the list contains only those
set-up options available for the given model.

Therefore, with a preset to “2AIL 1FL”, the options for
setting aileron functions to flaps will be suppressed,
and it will only be possible to shift to the right by one
column – to the “FL” column:
