Brake settings
Notes:
•
The "Brake settings" menu is switched
"off" if: "Motor on C1 forward / back" in the
»Model type« menu (page 104) AND
the "Motor" column of the »Phase settings«
menu, (page 154) are set to "yes" for the currently
active ight phase. Switch the ight phase if
required:
• The "brake mixers" described below can also –
and should also – be congured to be specic to
individual ight phases.

The "Crow" mixer function is actuated by control
function 1, 7, 8 or 9, depending on the input assigned
on the "Brake Offset" line in the »Model type« menu
(see page 104).

Note:
The Offset, i. e. the activation direction, is also
set in the »Model type« menu, page 104.
This offset should be set to about +90 % of
stick travel (if the C1 stick is used, this is generally
located at the forward position of the stick). To extend
the aps, the stick must therefore be moved back
towards the pilot. The remaining stick travel of around
10 % then has no effect, although it is not "lost", since
the control travel is automatically expanded back to
100 %.
Use the select fields of the columns labeled “AILE”,
“AILE2”, “FL” and, if present, “FL2” to specify the
extent and the direction that corresponding flap pairs
are to follow when the airbrake control (control func-
tion 1, 7, 8 or 9) is operated. If the model has no
airbrakes, leave the corresponding receiver output
free or set it in the »Mix only channel« menu to
"MIXonly" to be able to use it elsewhere.
Values in the range -150 % to +150 % are possible.
A simultaneous tap on the or keys of the
right touch pad (CLEAR) will reset the given active
(inverse video) field to its default value shown in the
figure.
• “AILE” and – if present – “AILE2” column
When braking the model as it comes in to
land, neither of the aileron flaps should ever be
deflected more than half of the possible travel
upwards, to ensure that enough travel is available
to control the model along its longitudinal axis
(aileron function).

• “FLAP” and – if present – “FLAP2” column
As the model is braked on the landing approach,
both pairs of flaps can be set to deflect by different
amounts, e. g.:

Though the airbrake mixers are set as described
above, there is a special flap constellation, called
"crow position" or "buttery", that can also be
set. This airbrake setting causes both ailerons
