Program description - Stick mode | Winged models
This option is available on the
mc-20
HoTT transmitter only.
Both sticks are equipped for digital trim-
ming. With each brief push (one “click”) on
a trim switch-key it will change its neutral position by
one increment. Holding the trim switch-key longer will
cause trimming to run in the corresponding direction at
increasing speed.
The current position is shown on the screen and the
adjustment is also made “audible” with acoustic tones.
This makes finding the mid-point during flight easy,
without looking at the screen. If the mid-point is over-
run, a brief motion pause will be inserted.
Current trim values are automatically stored when a
model memory change is made.
By default the digital trims of the
mc-16 HoTT and
mc-20 HoTT transmitters always apply to each
flight phase separately within a particular model mem-
ory – with the exception of the throttle / brake stick trim,
generally abbreviated to control function “C1” (channel
1).
If the »Stick mode« menu is unlocked, it is possible to
convert the digital trims from the default “PH” (phase)
setting to “GL” (global), although the C1 trim is always
“global”, i. e. it is independent of flight phases.
This settings are visualized in the base screen by a
“shadow” on trim bars:
• shadow present = global,
• no shadow = flight phase dependent.

By default this means that the base display of the
mc-16 HoTT and mc-20 HoTT transmitters looks

In the following screen-shot of the base display of a
transmitter with »Stick mode« unlocked (as shown
in the screen-shot on the right under the title “”Tr”
column”), the aileron trim is shown as “flight phase
dependent”; this is the left / right function of the right-
hand stick, and assumes the default “Mode 1” trans-
mitter configuration:

Column “Tr”
Except for “Channel 1”, the desired line can be reached
by using the selection keys of the left or right four-way
button. Once the appropriate function field has been
selected and then the centre SET key of the right four-
way button is touched briefly, the field will appear in
inverse video and the desired setting can be made with
the selection keys of the right four-way button.
This column can be used to switchover trim effect from
“GL(obal)” to “PH(ase)” and vice versa, for example:

• “Global”
The position of the respective trim function is effec-
tive “globally” for all flight-phases programmed for
the given model, page 146.
• “Phase”
The position of the respective trim function is ef-
fective on a phase-specific basis and will be auto-
matically stored upon change of flight phase so that
the setting is again available following a return to
this flight phase.
A simultaneous tap on the or keys of the right
four-way button (CLEAR) will reset the option back to
“Global”.
