Flap Rate
Flap Rate allows the independent up and down
adjustment of flaps with the lever that camber mix is
assigned to (flap lever on the left or Aux. 3 lever on the
right) in Device Select (pg. 5) for each of the flight
modes. The lever-offset position is established in
Flaperon Mix above, allowing pilots to choose the
neutral position for the side lever and this offset is in
effect in the flap rate menu (see Flaperon Mix for more
details). It’s important to first program these values
before proceeding to the Flaperon (camber) mix menu,
as the camber mix values are based on a percentage of
the flap values.
To access Flap Rate in FUNC.LIST rotate the Selector
until FLAP RATE is highlighted. Press the Selector to
access the Flap Rate menu. Rotate the Selector to
highlight the desired value then press the Selector to
access this value. With the flight mode switches in the
corresponding flight mode, move the left side lever to
the appropriate position and adjust the value to the
desired flap position. Repeat this for all desired flight
modes and flap positions. Press the LIST button to
return to the Function Mode screen.
Motor Hold
Note: This function is only available when the motor is
programmed to the spoiler stick in the device select
menu. See Device Select Pg. 6.
The Motor Hold feature allows the spoiler stick to be
used for multiple functions. In one mode (launch mode,
for example) it can be used as a proportional throttle for
an electric motor and switching to another mode
(landing) the spoiler can be used as landing flaps. The
motor hold function is used in conjunction with a
programmable mix by mixing motor to an AUX channel.
When the motor hold mix is on, the throttle hold
program holds the throttle in the desired position
(usually motor off).
To access Motor Hold in FUNC.LIST rotate the Selector
until MOTO. HOLD is highlighted. Press the Selector to
access the Motor Hold menu. Rotate the Selector to
highlight desired flight mode or switch, and then press
the Selector to access on or off. Adjust the motor value
to achieve the desired throttle position for that flight
mode or switch. Press the LIST button to return to the
Function Mode screen.
