10. Example - 4-flap glider
Aileron mix:
The mixable inputs can be found on the left:
Aileron:
Here, you can set the full aileron deflections and at the same
time the differentiation (different deflections upwards and
downwards).
Flaps:
If you want to use the speed and thermal position on your

model, you can set the desired full deflection for speed and
thermal position of the ailerons here. The setting is per-
formed as follows:
In the middle setting of the flap control (in this step another
one of the back rollers), the camber-changing flaps should
be in neutral position.
Bring the operating element for the flaps into the desired
full deflection position for the full thermal position, check to
which of the two values the control surfaces respond, and
adjust the deflections according to the specifications.
Bring the operating element for the flaps into the desired full
deflection position for the full speed position, use the second
value, adjust the deflections according to the specifications.
Hint:
Should you prefer selecting a fixed
warping of the surface for each flight phase (provided you
have activated flight phases), you can overwrite the function
of the roller next in the control settings by setting "Fix"-values
for each flight phase. As you have already performed the
travel settings with the mixer in this step, it is sufficient for
"Fix" to enter the values (-100, 1 and +100).
Elevator:
Here, the so-called snap-flap function (e.g. for
tight turns around the elevator axle) can be set,
change the deflection here, which the aileron should take
when pulling or pushing the elevator. This function is only
active if the "SNAP" switch is in the active position.
Spoilers:
The spoilers are the operating element for approaching the
landing position (also referred to as butterfly/crow). This step
will work with another of the rollers on the back of the trans-
mitter or the joystick.
To raise the aileron for landing, first enter "100" here. If the ai-
lerons are running in the wrong direction, enter "-100", move
the roller (or joystick) into the position in which the ailerons
are completely extended. Next, reduce the numerical value
until the control surfaces have adopted the desired position.

Feature: The COCKPIT SX M-LINK has an automatic
fade out of the aileron differentiation. This means that even
when the ailerons are completely extended for landing, the
model can still be controlled using the aileron axle.
Should you prefer selecting a fixed landing position in a flight
phase, you can overwrite the function of the roller subse-
quently in the controller settings under spoilers by setting
"Fix" values for each flight phase. As you have already made
the travel settings via the spoiler mixing, it is sufficient for fix
to enter the values +100 for extended or -100 for retracted.
Offset:
This setting is reserved for experts. If you don't need an
offset, you can skip this setting:
If, despite a spoiler value of "100", the travel for lifting the
aileron required for the landing position is not achieved, the
servo center can be shifted "mathematically" in this step.
This is possible because for controlling the aileron with most
models, 2/3 of the travel up and only 1/3 of the travel down
is required.
First, set the ailerons using the operating element for the
spoilers to the extended position. Measure how much ad-
ditional travel upwards is required, and bring the control
surfaces back into the neutral position. Increase the value
for offset so far so that the control surface is down by the
previously measured value. Next, the aileron linkage must be
mechanically set back into the neutral position.
Then, check the full travel of the affected servo, and adjust
it if necessary following the programming in the "servo set-
tings" for both servos.
