10. Example - 4-flap glider
Flap mix
The mixable inputs can be found on the left:
If you do not use any flaps/camber-changing flaps, you can
skip this step and continue from "Elevator mix".
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 flaps here. The setting is performed
as follows:
In the middle position 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 surface
responds, and adjust the deflections according to your
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
your specifications.
Aileron:
If the flaps/camber-changing flaps are to travel with the aile-
rons, you can set the proportional slaving here.
Spoilers:
Here, you can set the position of the camber-changing flaps
for landing when actuating the spoiler controller just as de-
scribed under aileron mix.
Offset:
This setting is reserved
don't need an offset, you can skip this setting: Just as for
the offset function of the "Aileron mix", the zero point of
the camber-changing flaps can be moved here, in case the
servo travel does not reach down far enough.
First, set the camber-changing flaps using the operating ele-
ment for the spoilers to the extended position. Measure how
much additional travel downwards is required, and bring the
aileron back to the neutral position. Increase the value for
offset until the aileron is up by the previously measured val-
ue. 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.
· Now, in the selection field at the top right, select "Elevator
mix"
for experts. If you
Elevator mix
The mixable inputs can be found on the left:
Elevator:
Here, you can set different deflection sizes for the elevator
for various flight phases, if required.
Flaps:
Here, you can mix height or depth if the nose of your
model raises or dips a little in speed or thermal position.
(flap compensation)
Bring the operating element for the flaps into the speed posi-
tion, check by testing to which of the two values the elevator
responds, and set the desired deflection size.
Bring the operating element for the flaps into the
thermal position, use the second value, and set the desired
deflection size.
Spoilers:
Here, you can set the so-called spoiler compensation if the
nose of your model raises or dips a little in the landing po-
sition.
Bring the operating element for spoiler into the extended po-
sition, set the required deflection size on the elevator.
Throttle:
Here, you can set the so-called throttle compensation if the
nose of your model raises or dips a little when increasing
the throttle.
To do so, bring the throttle operating element into the
extended position, and set the required deflection size on
the elevator.
· Now continue programming with the assistant using the ar-
row to the right to the "Controller settings".
