Fixed-wing model aircraft
Fixed-wing model aircraft
This program provides convenient support for models
with up to two aileron servos and two fl ap servos (con-
ventional aircraft), V-tail models, fl ying wings and deltas
with two elevon (aileron / elevator) servos and two fl ap
servos.
The majority of power models and gliders belong to the
“normal” tail type with one servo each for elevator, rud-
der, ailerons and throttle or electronic speed controller
(airbrakes on a glider). There is also the special model
type “2 EL Sv” which provides a means of connecting
two elevator servos in parallel to channels 3 and 8.
If your model features two separate aileron servos (and
also in some cases two fl ap servos), the aileron travel
of both pairs of control surfaces can be set up with dif-
ferential movement in the »Wing mixers« menu, i.e. the
down-travel can be set independently of the up-travel.
Finally the program caters for camber-changing fl aps,
which can be operated by any of the transmitter cont-
rols “CTRL 5 … 7”. Alternatively a phase-specifi c trim is
available for fl aps, ailerons and elevator in the »Phase
trim« menu.
If the model features a V-tail instead of a conventional
tail, you need to select the tail type “V-tail” in the »Base
settings« menu, as this automatically superimposes the
elevator and rudder control functions in such a way that
each tail panel can be actuated by a separate servo.
For deltas and fl ying wings it is easy to set up mixed ele-
vons, i.e. the aileron and elevator functions can be car-
ried out via common control surfaces at the trailing edge
of the right and left wing. As standard the program con-
tains the appropriate mixer functions for the two servos.
Up to three fl ight phases can be programmed in each of
the 12 model memories.
The digital trim positions are stored separately for each
fl ight phase, with the exception of the C1 trim. The C1
trim provides a simple means of re-locating the correct
idle throttle setting.
Two timers are available at all times when fl ying. The
screen also displays the transmitter operating time since
the battery was last charged.
The switches SW 1 … 8 and the transmitter controls
CTRL 5 … 7 can be assigned to any of the inputs 5 … 8
in the »Control settings« menu.
“Dual Rate” and “Exponential” can be programmed se-
parately for aileron, rudder and elevator, giving two mo-
des of control.
Depending on the model type you have selected, the
»Wing mixers« menu presents you with up to 12 addi-
tional pre-defi ned mixers and coupling functions which
you can simply select and set up when necessary, in ad-
dition to three free mixers:
1. Aileron differential
2. Flap differential
3. Aileron rudder (switchable)
4. Aileron fl ap (switchable)
5. Airbrake elevator (switchable)
6. Airbrake fl ap (switchable)
7. Airbrake aileron (switchable)
8. Elevator fl ap (switchable)
9. Elevator Aileron (switchable)
10. Flap elevator (switchable)
11. Flap aileron (switchable)
12. Differential reduction
