Settings for Control Horns

The Illustrations show linkage positions chosen for
the most balanced aerobatic response. Linkage
connections on control horns directly affect aircraft
response.

When these are incorrectly connected for the pilot’s
skill level, unexpected aircraft response to controls
can result. This can cause damage to the aircraft
and personal injury.

Dual Rates and Expo

We recommend using a DSM radio capable of dual
rates and expo due to the aerobatic capabilities
of the Sbach 342. The settings below are
recommended starting settings. Adjust according
to individual preferences after initial fl ight.

Note: The DX5e transmitter is not recommended for
use with the Sbach 342.

NOTICE: DO NOT SET YOUR TRANSMITTER
TRAVEL ADJUST OVER 100%
. If the TRAVEL
ADJUST is set over 100% it will not result in more
control movement; and it will overdrive the servo
and cause damage.

It is normal for linear servos to make noise. The
noise is not an indication of a faulty servo.

Note: Left and right aileron servos are under
the wing.
