Radio System FAQ

I am interested in using conditions, but what about my trims? If I trim the model in one condition, will the trim 'follow' through all conditions or do I have to retrim in each condition? Also, what if I need a difference in trim (like an offset) between one condition and the next, but then want to have any changes I make in any condition follow from then on?

To match your trims and then have trim changes in one condition follow to the next, you will need to:

  1. Go into the trim menu and "separate" all trims
  2. Set all trims to zero
  3. Confirm current to memory for each condition
  4. Then select "combine" for all trims to be the same for each condition

Now when you trim a control it will automatically be the same for each condition unless you go back in and separate it.

Lets say you want to have a small amount of down elevator trim in your gear down condition. You can do this without needing a mix as follows:

  1. Trim the AC in the normal condition
  2. Separate the trims
  3. Trim the model properly in all other conditions
  4. Re-combine them - now the trim "offset" is permanent and any further trim in any condition will maintain that offset when the trim is changed

For information on keeping the amount of effect trim has in each condition similar, click here.
