After exiting the "Brake settings", the "Aileron
differentiation" can be set:
This serves to eliminate the negative torque. The
downward defl ected aileron normally generates a higher
level of resistance during the fl ight than when defl ected
upward the same distance, whereby the model is pulled
to the "wrong" side. In order to prevent this, with the
input of a differentiation of the travel of the respective
servo defl ected downward is reduced accordingly. A
value between 20 and 40 %, in this case, seldom arises,
however, the "correct" setting must be sought.
The option "AI ¼ RU" (Aileron ¼ rudder) also serves
a similar purpose, as well as for the comfortable control
of a model. A value around 50 % is a practical value
to start with. However, this function should be made
switchable with the assignment of a switch if you ever
have aerobatic fl ight ambitions. (The author, for example,
switches off this mixer "automatically" when switching
to the "Speed" fl ight phase, in which he assigns both
options to the same switch accordingly.)
The last option of the "Wing mixers" menu, "EL ¼ AI"
mixer, is not currently of interest.
If the model-specifi c settings were made thus far,
the initial start can be considered. If course, at fi rst
you should perform a "dry run", meaning you should
carefully check all the settings once again on the
ground. Incorrect programming can damage more than
just the model! In case of doubt, ask the advice of an
experienced model pilot.
If you should fi nd during the testing that one or multiple
settings must be made for the adjustment of the rudder
effects to your control habits, the control throws are too
long or short on the whole, you should adjust this in the …

… to your own requirements and habits.
With "Dual Rate" the relationship of the joystick travel to
control travel is adjusted, see page 108:

On the other hand, if the maximum throws are OK and
only the reactions around the center position are to
strong for more sensitive controls, then the "exponential"

If a switch is also assigned, switching can even take place

With this option, one or multiple points of the control
curve of the throttle/brake joystick can be infl uenced in
such a way that a pleasant or even purposeful behavior
is guaranteed.
An example of this would be the "dead" travel of
spoilers. The fl aps fi rst pass through this after a certain
"idle travel" of the brake joystick from the wing. With a
corresponding "bending" of the curve, the "dead' travel
is covered more quickly. The spoilers come out from
the wing earlier and then the remaining travel can be
controlled with greater sensitivity. (This also applies for
the control of a motor in the same manner, which can be
controlled through C1 as an alternative.)
After this, you must defi ne the behavior of the receiver in
the event of a failure in the …
