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
occurs when the mixer is turned on and the Elevator is
pulled up.
Example: If the model pulls to the left during a loop, 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. You can then highlight and adjust the Pos0 mix
value as needed.
5. Offset. Leave the offset value to 0% for this mix, adding
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 moves 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.
This mix functions and is set up as described in the
Elevator-to-Aileron Mix section. It allows the helicopter
to roll more axial along the Tail Boom by adding a slight
amount of Elevator to each direction of Aileron.
Setup Tip: Most helicopters with a Clockwise Rotation
Rotor require a small amout of Up Elevator for right rolls,
and a small amount of Down Elevator for left rolls.
Highlight and select one of the Standard Programmable
Mixers (PROG.MIX3PROG.MIX6) to obtain the first
Programmable Mix display. Then press ACT next to
CLR or highlight and select INH to obtain the main mix
display. The example is using PROG.MIX3.
