10. Set Flaperon Throws

Now go back to the FPN (Flaperon) menu. Set

differential by limiting the down aileron throws on

both sides. The down throw should be set between

70% and 95% of the up throw. This setting depends on

the individual model and its particular flight character-

istics, so make changes after flight testing. Be sure

that the flap mixing settings are the same (default is

±100%).

Move to the E->F menu to set up how much the

ailerons move due to elevator. Approximately 10-

30% up and down mixing should be used (be sure that

up elevator causes the ailerons to drop, and down

elevator raises the ailerons up). The amount of aileron

droop at neutral elevator may be set with the A knob.

You may adjust this travel by adjusting the trim rate —

it can be set to zero to prevent accidental changes (be

sure this knob is zeroed before resetting subtrims).

Using the

SWT

button, you can also define a switch

to turn the elevator-flaperon mixing on and off.

11. Setting Up Airbrakes

To make landings easier, you may set a switch to

move both the elevators and flaps to a preset position

for an airbrake effect. Normally, the ailerons are raised

5—10° and the elevator is offset to cancel any trim

change.

Call the Airbrake

ABK

function from the con-

dition menu. Select the Manual mode by pressing the

MAN

key. Auto is available.

This system should normally be used in manual

mode. To select the operating switch, press the

SWT

key. The display shows that the default airbrake con-

trol switch is the C switch, ON in the lower position.

You may choose another switch or direction at this

time. Verify proper operation of the switch by activat-

ing it and watching the servos move.

Press the

PRE

key to get back to the preceding

key. If you have spoilers, they may be actuated also.

Read the section on ABK for more details.

12. Snap Roll Setup

You may have any switch activate the Snap Roll

function (the spring-loaded switch is strongly recom-

mended!). Call the Snap Roll function

SNP

form

the Condition menu. Activate it with the

ACT

key.

Set the deflection for each switch position: ailerons

±100-110%, elevator ±80-100%, rudder ±70-80%.

Be sure to choose the correct directions with the

For safety, you may also turn on the safety switch

using the O button. This safety inhibits the activation

of snap roll if the landing gear are down. Check to

make sure the switch is set for the correct direction.

13. Setting Up Differential Elevator

Your PCM 1024Z system has a unique function

called ALV for "Ailevators," or differential elevators.

This function provides roll control whenever the

propeller slipstream is acting on the tail, and is effec-

tive at low airspeeds.

Press the

ALV

key to enter the menu. Activate

with the

ACT

key, then adjust the rates given by the

A-3 and A-4 settings. We recommend starting out with

small deflections at first. Be sure that the settings for

ELE are 100% to get full elevator authority.
