What is a mixer?
Basic functions
In many models, it is frequently desirable to mix func-
tions within the model, for example to couple ailerons
and rudders, or to couple two servos when you want two
rudders with the same function to be controlled by a sin-
gle servo. In all these cases, the signal flow at the output
of the transmitter-side control function branches at a
point at which the influences of all transmitter options
such as "dual rate / expo", "channel set", "throttle
curve", etc. are contained within the signal so that the
signal can act specifically on the input of another control
channel and hence on another receiver output.
Example: V-tail mixer

The program of the mz-18 HoTT and mz-24 HoTT
transmitters already contains numerous preprogrammed
coupling functions in which two (or more) control
channels are mixed with each other. The mixer cited as
an example can therefore be activated in the form of a
V-tail in the program while making the basic settings for
a model, starting on page 45.
In addition, the program in each model memory of
the fixed-wing and helicopter program has five freely
programmable linear mixers and three curve mixers per
activated Q.Link.
More information about this subject can be found on the
relevant page on "programmable mixers".
