ALLERON-RUDDER MIXING (A-R)

This function is used to mix rudder operation

with aileron operation automatically, to make

realistic, coordinated turns. It is especially effec-

tive

when

turning

and

banking

scale

models

large models that resemble full-sized aircraft. This

mixing

keeps

the

fuselage

aligned

into

the

wind,

reducing drag, and helps to make what are called

"coordinated turns."

The function allows you to set up the left and

right mixing rates independently. Furthermore,

mixing can be turned on and off during flight by

setting a switch, or it may be set to stay on all the

time if the function is activated (ACT) without

setting an ON/OFF switch. Also, it is possible to

adjust the amount of rudder coupling in-flight, by

setting a volume control.

Setting the Mixing Ratio — Left and Right

First set the amount of mixing for left aileron com-

mand. Press the C key to activate mixing ratio for the

Left direction and set the value with the numeric keys

E to M . The number keys 0 through

100

input the

value directly. The + and - keys increase or decrease

the value by 1. The +/- key may be used to reverse the

throw direction.

If you are not sure what you are changing, hold the

stick to one side and press different keys — if there is no

effect, move the aileron stick to the other side and con-

tinue. Your setting may vary from —100 to +100%, the

initial value is+50%.

Now set the amount of mixing for the Right aileron

command. Press the

key to activate mixing ratio for

the Right direction and set the throw with the numeric

keys as before.

On/Off Switch Setting

On initial setting, an activation switch for rudder

coupling is not set, meaning that once activated, it is on

all the time. If you would like to set a switch to turn it on

and off, call the Switch Setting screen by pressing the

SWT P key. Then use the keys to choose the desired

switch location and on direction. For more information

on the switch setting method, see page 37).

Trim Volume setting

You may set up the Rudder coupling function so that

its effect may be changed in flight by moving a trim

control. The trim control adjusts the volume within ±25%

of the set mixing rate. This option is not activated at

initial setup.

Call the volume setting screen by pressing the VOL

O key, and select the desired control using the screen

menus (see page 37 for a description of the volume setting

method.

Use the

END (N )

key to leave this menu.
