14. Aileron dual rate switch
Aileron dual rate ON-OFF switch. When set to the
pull position dual rate is turned on, and when
set to the push position, dual rate is turned off.
At dual ON, the deflection can be set as shown in
Fig. 7 with the (1) aileron dual rate trimmer locat-
ed on the trimmer panel at the back of the trans-
mitter. At dual OFF, the operating linearity
can be switched as shown in Fig. 8 with the (2)
LINEAR-VTR switch also located on the trimmer
panel.
Deflection is adjustable
from 40% to 100% of
the total travel within
this range.

15. Elevator dual rate switch
• Elevator dual rate ON-OFF switch
Similar to aileron dual rate, the elevator deflec-
tion can be adjusted with the elevator dual rate
trimmer [23] and LINEAR-VTR switching can be
performed with switch [ 2 4 ] Other functions are
the same as elevator dual rate.
•Aileron dual rate and elevator dual rate can be
switched ON and OFF simultaneously (combina-
tion ON-OFF) or separately by setting switch [25]
on the trimmer panel at the back of the transmit-
ter. In the simultaneous ON-OFF mode, aileron
dual rate and elevator dual rate are turned on and
off with the aileron dual rate switch [14]
16. Rudder dual rate switch
Rudder dual rate ON-OFF switch. Similar to
aileron dual rate, the rudder deflection can be
adjusted with the rudder dual rate trimmer [20] and
LINEAR-VTR switching can be performed with
switch [21] . Other functions are the same as aileron
dual rate.
17. Revolution mixing up side ratcheted
knob (UP knob)
18. Revolution mixing down side ratchet-
ed knob (DOWN knob)
• These knobs vary the pitch control — rudder mix-
ing amount from 0 to 70% of the total travel at
the up and down sides. This mixing is performed
when the hovering memory switch [36] on the
back of the transmitter is set to ON, when switch
[36] is set to OFF, mixing is not performed even if
knobs [17] and [18] are turned. The UP knob [17]
adjusts the high side mixing amount from the
memorized throttle stick hovering position. The
DOWN knob [18] adjusts the low side mixing
amount from the memorized throttle stick hover-
ing position.
• Switch [22] on the trimmer panel changes the mix-
ing direction and releases the mixing function.
•The mixing amount to the rudder (pitch control
-> rudder) is controlled by adjusting the revolu-
tion mixing compensation with trimmer [16] in
Fig. 9.

When this compensation is suitably applied, the
high speed linearity in the air is improved and
power loss is minimized.
