Aircraft tail types (ACRO
GLID):
There are 4 basic tail types in aircraft models:
• Simple. Model uses one elevator servo and one rudder servo (or multiple servos on a Y-harness). This is the default.
• Dual Elevator servos. Model uses 2 elevator servos. see AILVATOR (ACRO) see p. 57.
• Tail-less model. Model uses 2 wing servos together to create roll and pitch control. see ELEVON(ACRO
GLID 1A+1F). see p. 56.
• V-TAIL. Model uses 2 surfaces, at an angle, together to create yaw and pitch control. see V-TAIL (ACRO
GLID). see p. 58.
Note: Only one of the three tail-type functions (AILEVATOR, V-TAIL, and ELEVON) can be used at a time. The radio provides a

Adjustability:
• Requires use of CH1 and CH2.
• Independently adjustable aileron travel allows aileron differential.
• Independently adjustable elevator travel allows for differences in up vs. down
travel.
• Separate ELEVON settings for each condition (GLID only)
[Note] When changing the polarity (positive or negative) of a rate, "change rate
dir?" is displayed as a check. Please set up after pressing DIAL for 1 second and
canceling the alarm display. (GLID only)
NOTE: If ELEVON is active, you cannot activate FLAPERON, AILE-DIFF, or
AILEVATOR
. An error message OTHER WING MIXING IS ON displays and you must
deactivate the last function to activate ELEVON.

STICKS are moved at the same time the controls may bind or run out of travel.
