SUB-TRIM: Makes small changes or corrections to the neutral position of each servo. Range is -120 to +120, with 0 setting,
the default, being no SUB-TRIM.

The recommended procedure is as follows:

Measure and record the desired surface position;

Zero out both the trims (TRIM RESET menu) and the SUB-TRIMs (this menu);

Mount servo arms and linkages so that the control surface's neutral is as correct as possible; and

Use a small amount of SUB-TRIM to make fine corrections.

GOAL of EXAMPLE:

STEPS:

INPUTS:

We recommend that you center the digital trims before making SUB-TRIM
changes, and that you try to keep all of the SUB-TRIM values as small as
possible. Otherwise, when the SUB-TRIMs are large values, the servo's
range of travel is restricted on one side.

Adjust the flap servo' s SUB-TRIM until
its center exactly matches the aileron
servo' s center, as they will work
together as flaperons.
