The FLASH 8 provides three user-programmable mixes which can be used for a wide variety of custom
functions that are not available with the built-in mixes and options. A common use for these mixes is
to correct unwanted behavior of an aircraft. This could be automatically applying a bit of rudder with
throttle to counteract torque/P-factor eects, or applying elevator during knife-edge ight to correct an
undesired tucking tendency. Maybe you just want the head on your model’s pilot gure to turn when you
taxi out to the runway. Programmable mixes can make it happen.
