V-TL V-tail mixing V-TL V-tail mixing
Intended for V-tail aircraft (such as a Beechcraft Bonanza), V -tail mixing allows the ruddervators to operate both as rudders
and elevators. The same as the other mixes, V -tail mixing requires that each ruddervator be operated by a separate servo.
To activate V-tail mixing: To activate V-tail mixing:
1. Connect the left ruddervator servo to channel 2 (elevator) in the receiver and
connect the right ruddervator servo to channel 4 (rudder) in the receiver.
2. Enter the programming mode. Access the “ V-TL V-TL” screen with the MODE key.
You cannot set “V-tail V-tail ” mixing when “Elevon Elevon ” mixing has already been set. In order to
enable “V-tail V-tail ” mixing, you first need to cancel “Elevon Elevon ” mixing. However, it is allowed to
use “V-Tail” and “Flaperon” mixing simultaneously.
3. Push the DATA INPUT lever upward. This will cause the flashing “INH INH ” display to change to a
flashing “ON ON ” display. Now the mixing is on.
4. Next you may the elevator setting. Press the SELECT key to display the “CH2” and flashing
“%” sign. Use the DATA INPUT lever to set the percentage of elevator travel rate from -100%
to +100%
5. Next you may the rudder setting. Press the SELECT key to display the “CH4” and flashing
“%” sign. Use the DATA INPUT lever to set the percentage of rudder travel rate from -100%
to +100%
6. Once this mix has been activated, move the servos to their full extremes to make certain they are not overdriving the
controls. If necessary, adjust the linkages to achieve the correct control throws.
*If necessary, use the Servo Reversing
function to achieve the correct direction of
servo throws.
