Adjusting Aileron to Rudder Mix Rates
Rotate the roller to highlight the rate values then press. Note that both rates are boxed. Moving the aileron stick right or left causes the right or
left value only to be highlighted so you can adjust the values individually. Move the aileron stick in position to highlight the desired rates then
rotate the roller to adjust the value. Note that positive + and negative - values reverse the direction of the mix. Press the roller to accept the
rate.

Assigning Aileron to Rudder Mix to a
Switch
Rotate the roller to highlight Sw: at the
bottom of the screen. Press the roller to
access the switch select function then select
the desired switch to turn on/off the aileron to
rudder mix. If you select On, the mix will
always be on.
Verify the aileron to rudder mix is working
properly and in the correct direction by
placing the active switch in the active
position and moving the aileron stick noting
the rudder position. If the rudder moves in
the opposite direction than desired, the
opposite value (positive vs. negative value)
is needed.
Note: the Elevator to Flap mix
operates in the same fashion as
alieron to rudder mix.
