Simple Transmitter Setup – Aerobatic Airplane (ACRO)
7.Press the Cursor Right key once, to get to the elevator
travel setting menu. Highlighted SLV sign and Numeral 2 Will
be ashing that represents elevator slave channel, and the
percent indicator will blink on and off.
8. Move the elevator stick
all the way to the back (full
up position): both elevons
should move upwards like
elevators. If the left (CH2)
elevon moves down, change its
travel direction by pressing the Active/Inhibit (Clear) key to get
0% quickly, then pressing the Data -Decrease key until you
reach -50%.
9. If the right (CH1) elevon moves down with up elevator stick,
change its travel direction by pressing the Cursor Right key
(the numeral 1 will be ashing), then press the Data -Decrease
key until you reach -50%. Otherwise, continue.
ELVN - Elevon Mixing
The Elevon function should be used
with delta wings, ying wings, and
other tailless aircraft whose
layouts combine the aileron
and elevator functions, and
requires one servo for each
elevon. Connect the right
elevon to receiver CH1
and the left elevon to CH2.
The amount of aileron and elevator response can be
adjusted independently. However, if you program in too
much elevator or rudder travel, the servos may reach
their travel limits before full stick motion has occurred.
The default values for this mixer are 100%, but you may
want to keep the travel settings at 50% or below
because most elevon planes are very sensitive, and
adjust the control linkages to get the travel you desire.
Note that you cannot use either aperon or V-tail mixing
when elevon mixing is active.
Setting up elevon mixing
1. The right elevon should be plugged into CH1, and the
left elevon should be plugged into CH2.
2. Press one of the Up Down Edit buttons repeatedly to
select the ELVN window.
3. To activate, press the
Active/Inhibit (Clear) key.
The letters “INH” will turn
to “On.”
4. Press the Cursor Right
key once ,Now you’ll input the
amount of aileron stick response
on the right(CH1) elevon. Now
the MAS(Master) and numeral 1
will be ashing, and you may
adjust the amount of right elevon travel with the Data
+Increase and -Decrease keys. 50% is a good starting point.
As before, change the sign and use -50% if it travels the wrong
way with aileron stick.
5. Now you’ll input the
amount of aileron stick
response on the left (CH2)
elevon by pressing the
Cursor Right key once. Now the
SLV and numeral 1 will be
ashing, and you may adjust the amount of left elevon travel
with the Data +Increase and -Decrease keys. 50% is a
good starting point. Change the sign if travel needs to be
reversed.
6. Press the Cursor Right
key once, to get to the
elevator travel setting menu.
Highlighted MAS sign and
Numeral 2 Will be ashing that
represents elevator master
channel, and the percent indicator will blink on and off.

Aileron Operation
VTAL - V-Tail Mixing
V-tail mixing is used with V-tail aircraft so that both elevator
and rudder functions are combined for the two tail surfaces,
called “ruddervators.” The response to both elevator and
rudder inputs can be adjusted independently.
However, if you program in too much elevator or rudder travel,
when both rudder and elevator are commanded the servos
may reach their travel limits before full stick motion has
occurred. Therefore, you should keep the travel settings at
50% or below and adjust the control linkages to get the travel
you desire. Note that you can not have both V-tail and elevon
mixing active at the same time.
Right Rudder(view from rear)
Up Elevator
Setting up V-Tail mixing
1. The right ruddervator should be plugged into CH2,
and the left ruddervator should be plugged into CH4.
2. Press one of the Up Down Edit buttons repeatedly to
select the VTAL window. The INH indicator will show.
3. Press the Active/Inhibit
(Clear) key to activate the V-tail
function. The display will show
On.
4. Press the Cursor Right key
once, to get to the elevator
setting menu.
Highlighted MAS sign and
Numeral 2 will be ashing that
representing elevator master
channel, indicating the right (CH2) ruddervator, and the per-
cent indicator will blink on and off. Move the elevator stick all
the way to the back (full up position): both ruddervators should
moveupwards. If the right (CH2) ruddervator moves down,
