Trim Mix 1/2

[Corresponding model type]: Glider, 2 ailerons or more

These functions call the ailerons, elevators, and

fl aps (camber fl aps, brake fl aps) trim offset rates
preset according to the fl ight state.

The amount of ailerons, elevator, and flaps

(camber fl ap, brake fl ap) trim offset can be set to
a switch.

As an example Trim Mix 1 can be set up for

launching, with speed fl aps and ailerons dropped,
and a slight amount of up elevator. Trim mix
2
can be used for high speed flying, with both
ailerons and speed fl aps refl exed slightly, and a bit
of down elevator.

The trim functions can be activated during

fl ight by setting a switch. To prevent sudden trim
changes when switching fl ight conditions, a delay
can be set to provide a smooth transition between
the two. Trim Mix 2 will have priority over Trim
Mix 1.
