… the necessary settings are made:
• “Motor an C1”
“None” or “Throttle min front/back”
• “Tail type”
“Delta/fl”
• “Aileron/camber aps”
“2AIL” (appears automatically).
To the extent necessary – and if with the respec-
tive transmitter possible – expand default “2 AIL” by
4AIL or 1, 2 or 4 camber flaps (“1 FL”, “2 FL” or “4
FL”).

stays as is, only interesting for a delta wing or flying
wing of type “2/4AIL 1/2/4 FL”. In this case, refer
Delta and ying wing
to the text under “Brake offset” on page100.
These model type specifying settings primarily affect
the functions made available in the »Wing mixers«
menu. Therefore, the options are discussed separately
for two-flap and multi-flap models in the following:

By retaining the standard default “2 AIL” in the “Aileron/

trim function, are automatically mixed by percen tage on
the software side. However, on the transmitter side, the
percentage effect of the elevator and aileron stick can
be influenced in the »Dual Rate / Expo« menu, page

Due to the specific idiosyncrasies of this model type,
additional settings lead to moments which cannot be
compensated.
Of course, the general comments regarding the instal-
lation and the adjustment of the RC system to a model
at the beginning of the wing model programming on
page 278 also applies for delta and flying wing mod-
els! Similarly, the comments for test flying and fine-
tuning the settings to the programming of flight phases
also apply.

Delta and flying wing models differ significantly from a
“normal” flight model due to their unique characteris-
tic shape and geometry. The differences in the servo
arrangement, on the other hand, are more subtle. For
example, with “classic” delta/flying wing models, only
two rudders are normally provided. They are respon-
sible for both “transverse” and “height/depth”, like the
side rudder/elevator function on a V-tail unit.
With more elaborate designs, on the other hand, it
may be the case that one (or two) interior rudders
have only an elevator function and the exterior ailerons
only support the height/depth function, under certain
circumstances. Even with a 4, or indeed up to 8, flap
wing the use of camber flap functions and/or even a
crow system is nowadays entirely possible. In all these
cases, however, the following assignment of the re-
ceiver outputs should be used, see also page65.
