ELEVATOR ELEVATOR 2
(AILERON 5) (AILERON 6)
AILEVATOR [Corresponding model type]: Airplane/glider, Ailevator
(Effective only when 2 servos used at the elevators)
This function improves the performance of the roll
axis by operating the elevators as ailerons.
Ailevator is where each elevator in a standard
(conventional) or v-tail moves independently, like
ailerons on a wing. In addition to each elevator side
moving up and down together, each side moves in
opposite directions when moving as an Ailevator. On
a V-tail, this is also known as a Ruddervator, as they
can serve the same purpose. Typically, both Ailevator
and ailerons are coupled together to maximize roll
performance, especially on larger wingspan planes.
Note: Select Ailevator as the Model Type at the Model
Type screen. This changes the output channel. Check
the Function menu.
(Aileron function)
● When the elevators are used
as ailerons, aileron travel of

(Elevator function)

elevators when the elevator stick
