The Sub-Trim function of the DX2 is an electronic trimming feature that allows the neutral
position of the servo on the steering, throttle to be moved, while allowing the electronic
trim lever for that channel to remain in the center position. This feature is very useful as it
allows the servo arm/wheel position to be moved to help with control linkage installation,
eliminating the need to make mechanical linkage adjustments.
Although the Sub-Trim function is a very useful feature, it is suggested that only
small amounts of sub-trim be used so that no unwanted, non-equal servo travel is
created. It’s suggested that less than 30 points of sub-trim be used during adjustment.
If more than 30 points of sub-trim are required, it’s suggested that a mechanical linkage
adjustment be performed.
