In this menu, you can set a special fl ap arrangement,
named crow position or butterfl y. In this braking position,
both ailerons are moved slightly upward, and the fl aps
move downward as far as possible. By means of a third
mixer, the elevator is trimmed so that the fl ight speed
does not change signifi cantly in comparison to the
normal fl ight position.
This interaction of the fl aps, aileron and elevator control
the gliding angle when approaching a landing. (The but-
terfl y fl ap position is often used in sport and competition
gliders instead of speed brakes or spoilers.)
Flight-phase-dependent settings
If you have created Quick Links in the submenu
"Q.Link", page 132, and have assigned an appropriate
name, it appears at the top right in green font such as
"NORMAL" (see fi gures on the left). Activate the corre-
sponding switches if desired to switch between Quick
Links.
Programming
The butterfl y mixers described below are actuated by
the throttle/brake control stick assigned by default to
the "CH1" input, or alternately by any other transmitter
control element that is assigned to the "Throttle input" of
the "CH set" menu, page 92.
In most cases, however, the selection is limited to the
preset input 1, and the airbrake is operated using the
non-neutralizing CH1 control stick:

Note:
In contrast from the displays of the 12-channel
mz-24 HoTT transmitter shown in this
section, only channels 1 … 9 are shown in the
display of the 9-channel mz-18 HoTT transmitter.
If other control elements are used, you can activate
the air brake using one of the supplementary function
controls if the throttle position is to have a different use.
The neutral point (offset) to be set on the last display
page of the menu described here, or in the control
position identifi ed as "BUTTERFLY OFF" in the
display, can be placed at any position. Since however
this is essential to correctly set the fl ap defl ections, a
