Swashplate Timing Mixes (continued)
H-36
4. Travel and Direction. Highlight POS 1 with the
Selector and Press to access the values. Move the
Elevator stick to the full up position and the lower
value next to Pos1 should be highlighted. Set the
lower Pos1 parameter to a low negative or positive
value (check aileron function for proper direction) to
a starting value of between 3% and 5%. This is the
amount of deflection of the Aileron (Slave channel)
that is to occur when the mixer is turned on and the
Elevator is pulled up.
Example: If the model pulls to the left during a loop,
you would want to set a value so that when up Elevator
is given, the mix would provide a small amount of right
Aileron to correct this problem.
If an Elevator-to-Aileron mixing value is also required
for Down Elevator, move the Elevator stick to the down
position. The upper POS 1 value will then be highlighted
and can be adjusted as needed.
5. Offset. Leave the offset value to 0% for this mix, ad 0%
will correspond to the center stick position.
6. Verify Proper Mix Operation. Move the Flight Model
switch to the Stunt 1 or Stunt 2 positions, and move
the elevator stick from center to full up, and from
center stick to full down. If the mix is activated and
functioning properly, you should see a slight aileron
servo movement (easiest to see at the aileron servo
arm) when the Elevator stick is moved. Please verify
that the Aileron servo is moving in the desired
direction to correct the trim problem at this time.
Next, switch the Flight Mode switch to the Normal or
Throttle Hold positions (set to off in this example),
and verify that the mix is being turned off for these
desired flight modes.
