…

… and 4 curve mixers (C9 … 12), which also offer

The »MIX act. / phase« menu, see page 215, which
is available as standard on the

mc-20

HoTT trans-

mitter only, but can be unlocked at extra cost on the

mc-16

HoTT transmitter, also provides a means of

activating and disabling specific mixers separately
for each flight phase. On the “Free mixers” menu,
the blocked mixers are then suppressed in the
corresponding flight phase. If you are hunting for
a mixer that is not shown, you should therefore
switch to the appropriate flight phase!
In this first section, however, we will concentrate on
how to program the first screen page of the “free mix-
ers”. We will then move on to the method of program-
ming mixer ratios, both for linear mixers and curve
mixers, as found on the second screen page of this
menu.
