18.7 RUDDER -> AILERON MIXER

This menu is

used for setting

up a mixer

which causes

the ailer

ons to

move in the

same dir

ection

when an aileron

command is

given.

This function is

employed pri-

marily with

large-scale

model aircraft

where a scale control system is required, i.e. emulating a full-

size aircraft. However, the same mixer can also be useful when

flying particular manoeuvres in a 3-D aerobatic schedule.

Mark the ‘Rudder -> aileron’ mixer in the Model menu. The

screen now looks like this:

• Activating the mixer / defining the status

The function must first be activated, as previously descri-

bed. Y

ou can now set the ‘Glob’ or ‘Sepa’ mode in the cus-

tomary manner

• Defining the switch

A switch can be defined for triggering the mixer; it is set up

in the usual way: simply mark the corr

esponding field and

define the switch you wish to use and its dir

ection of opera-

tion in the switch select menu which then appears.

• Selecting the display type

You can now select your preferred display mode in the ‘Dis-

play’ field: the alter

natives ar

e to show all flight modes (All

modes), the currently active mode (Separate) or the fine-

tuning display (Fine).

• Defining a link

If you wish to link this mixer to another mixer, the appropri-

ate settings should be enter

ed in the ‘Link’ line. Y

ou must

first activate this option, then define the mixer to which a

link is to be created.

• Pr

ogramming the curve

A curve can be pr

ogrammed to define the effect of the Rud-

der -> aileron mixer. In addition to selecting the curve type

for each side (Rate A and Rate B), you can also enter a per-

centage value. The settings ar

e adjusted exactly as descri-

bed for pr

ogramming the Dual Rate curves. Please refer to

this in Section 17.2 on page 58.

• Selecting the fine-tuning settings

It is possible to assign a switch or other transmitter control

to the task of fine-tuning this mixer. Y

ou can select this

option in the ‘Fine tuning’ frame. Mark this field, and the

transmitter control / switch select menu appears; now you

can select the transmitter control you wish to use for this

purpose. The default setting is ‘NONE’. Any of the auxiliary

transmitter controls can be selected. Your selection is dis-

played in the field.

The next step is to define the operating mode for the trans-

mitter control you have chosen; this is carried out using the

now familiar procedure: mark the field containing the sym-

bol for the effect of the transmitter control; the effect mode

changes each time you mark the field. You can choose from

a total of four modes, whose function is displayed in sche-

matic form on-screen. The meaning of the symbols and the

different modes is explained in the description on page 61.

Once you have selected a transmitter control for fine-

tuning, and programmed your preferred mode, you should

determine the effect range for the fine-tuning procedure.

The first step here is to mark the right field in the ‘Fine-

tuning’ frame. The arrow buttons now appear at the right

margin of the screen, and they are used to enter the effect

range as a percentage figure; the set value is displayed in

the appropriate field. The direction of effect can be reversed

if necessary by altering the prefix in the central field.

If you now operate the selected transmitter control, the

function is adjusted within the pre-defined range. The value

currently set is displayed in brackets below the field. At the

same time, a fine line is superimposed on the programmed

curve to indicate the alteration effected by the fine-tuning

process.
