SDecial
feature:
The
"roll", "pitch-axis/r,
and
"yaw"
inputs are
mixed
"without
prefixes",
as
the

of
the
main and

The freely
definable
mixers
("USR-MlX"
mixers)
In
contrast
to the
"pre-defined"
mixers discussed
in the
Drevious
Section,
the
user-definable
mixers
give
you
the
chance
to select
precisely
the mixing
inputs
you
require.
This feature
caters
for all
possible
applications
for which
no
pre-defined
mixers are
provided.
Once
they
have been
"defined",
these
mixers can
be
used
exactly
like the
"pre-defined"
mixers.
This
means
that they
are assigned
and
adjusted
in
exactly
the same
way. And
in exactly
the same
way,
switches
are
provided
for turning
individual
inputs
on
and
off.
These
mixers
give you
total
freedom!
Note:
In
practice,
the
term
"defining
mixers"
means
that
you
select:
Input
1
controls
(say)
aileron
Input 2 controls
(say
eleva-
tor
That
is all
you
need to do
to define a
delta
mixer.
You
can
now assign
the mixer
in the standard
way. However,
when
you
try out
the system,
you
will discover:
No trims!
Right
then, back
to defining
the USR-MIX
mixer, release
the
input
field with the
E
key, and add
the
trim.

And the
result?
Nothing!
Has the transmitter
gone
wrong?
No, there's
nothing
wrong:
lirst
you
must re-assign
the
modified
USR-mixer.
Move
to the servo
assignment
menu, select
the
appropriate
servo,
and activate
the
input
field. The
legend USR-MIX
1 flashes
-
now the
altered
USR
mixer
is
active.
You may
lind this difficult
or complex,
but
bear
with us;
this
"trap"
in Jact offers
immense
possibilities.
lf
you
are
really clever,
you
will already
have
realised
the
potential:
Since
we
have to
re-activate the
mixer each
time,
we
can
alter the
USR
mixer definition between
each
servo
assignment
(servo
1, 2, 3 etc.),
so that each
of the
9 ser'
vos has
its own USR
mrxer. But
-
of course
-
there
has
to be
a drawback.
The USR
mixers
can indeed
all be diflerent,
but
they all
have the
same
name, e.g. USR-MIX
1.
Al this
point
we
will come back
to the
game
we
played
before,
in
answering
your
friends'
question:
"My
transmitter
has 6
mixers; and
yours?"
