This function is used when you want to mix
elevator operation with rudder operation. It is used
to correct undesirable tendencies when rudder is
applied in roll maneuvers, knife edge, etc. of stunt
planes.
● A mixing curve can be set.
● Mixing during fl ight can be turned ON/OFF by
setting a switch. (Always ON at NULL setting)
● The amount of correction rudder can be
memorized by using the Memory function. This is

convenient at mixing curve setting. When memory
operation (switch operation) is performed with
correction rudder applied in the Memory Mode,
the stick position at that time is displayed on the
mixing curve. The point is automatically refl ected
in the curve. (When the Memory function is used,
"Line" is automatically selected as the curve type.)
● Link can be set: Links this mixing to other mixings.
● The mixing rate can be fi ne-tuned by setting a VR.

Memory function usage method
(Example) Using the memory function with an F3A
airplane (knife edge correction)
*When call switch [SW-A] and memory switch
[SW-H] were set
[Memory function operation]
1. Memory function mode: [Manual] [Memory]
2. When the memory switch (SW-H) is set to ON
while performing elevator correction when
rudder was applied at knife edge, the point
position at that time is memorized. Memorization
is performed while changing the left and right
stick positions.
3. To recall the memorized positions, set [SW-A] to ON.
The memorized correction rate is refl ected on the
curve, and operation is simultaneously set.
Note: When memorized from manual before fl ight, be sure that
the memory SW is not accidentally set to ON and incorrect
mixing setting is not applied when taxiing, starting the engine,
etc.
