3.1.6 ELEV-FLAP mixing (ACRO/GLID)
ACRO
GLID
ELEV-FLAP mixing is the first pre-programmed mix we'll cover. This mix makes the flaps drop or rise
whenever ELEVATOR STICK is moved. It is most commonly used to make tighter pylon turns or squarer
corners in maneuvers. In most cases, the flaps droop (are lowered) when up elevator is commanded.
Adjustability:
• Rate: -100% (full up flap) to +100% (full down flap), with a default of +50% (one-half of the flap range is
achieved when the ELEVATOR STICK is pulled to provide full up elevator.)
• Switch: Fully assignable. Also LOGIC SW (Lsw1 to 3) may be assigned. IF you set it to NULL, the mix does
not work. (ACRO)
•Range (GLID): The range that mixing does not work near neutral of an elevator stick can be set up. Hold the
stick to the desired point (upper or lower side) , then press DIAL and hold one second to set the range.
• Condition (GLID): The separate ELEV-FLAP settings for each condition can be set.

3.1.7 Dual Elevator Servos (with a rudder) (AILEVATOR) (ACRO)
Many models use two elevator servos, plugged in separate receiver
channels. (Flying wings without a separate aileron control use ELEVON.
V-shaped tail models use V-TAIL,
ADVANTAGE:
•Ability to adjust each servo's center and end points for perfectly matched
travel.
• Ease of assembly, not requiring torque rods for a single servo to drive 2
