FLAPERON MIXING (FPN)—2-S
This function allows you to program the
ailerons to work in the same direction, giving a
flap response as well as aileron control (see figure).
For good square maneuvers, and landing, both
ailerons can be raised and lowered simultaneously.
While this function is on, regular aileron operation
is always present.
The Flaperon function requires two separate
channels: Receiver CH1 (aileron 1/flap 2) and CH5
(aileron 2/flap 1) are the operating channels. The
Aileron 1 and Aileron 2 left and right deflection
angles can be adjusted independently making it
easy to apply differential to the ailerons. With
differential, the up side travel is set to around 5%
larger than the down travel.
You may also adjust the Flap 1 and Flap 2
throws independently, and you can set the flap
trim rate as large or small as you like. Also, the
flap trim offset can be adjusted, allowing you to

freely change the flap neutral angle.
When setting aileron differential with this func-
tion, set the trim volume at the aileron differential
(ADF) function setting screen.
