The Start function is used to offset the

aileron, elevator, and flap servos to the
position that provides maximum lift
during launch. Normally the ailerons
and flaps are drooped about 20-30°, with
the flaps drooped slightly more to prevent
tip-stalling on tow. The elevator neutral
can also be offset in order to trim out any
pitch changes caused by the flap and
aileron presets. This function is
activated by flipping switch G to the aft
position.

If you wish to have the three-position

switch above the left-hand stick (position
E), you should purchase the 8UH system.
