Using V-TAIL(ACRO):

V-TAIL mixing is used with v-tail aircraft so that both elevator and rudder functions
are combined for the two tail surfaces. The elevator and rudder travel can be
adjusted independently.

NOTE: If V-TAIL is active, you cannot activate AILEVATOR or ELEVON functions. See the wing example on page 41.

NOTE: Be sure to move the elevator and rudder sticks regularly while checking the servo motions. If a large amount of travel
is specified, when the sticks are moved at the same time, the controls may bind. Decrease the travel until no binding occurs.

Adjustability:

• Independently adjustable elevator/rudder travels.

CH (2/1 CH): This allows you to utilize V-TAIL function with v-tail aircraft so that elevator and aileron are combined.
Ex: A v-tail polyhedral wing with no ailerons would use this option. The v-tail will have both pitch and roll on the right
stick.

(For details on setting up a complex plane, such as one with a v-tail AND a separate steerable nosewheel, please visit our
