Have regular maintenance performed. Although your FMT-03 protects the model memories with non-volatile EEPROM memory (which does not require periodic replacement) and not a battery, the transmitter still should have regular checkups for wear and tear. We recommend sending your system to the Futaba Service Center annually during your non-flying-season for a complete checkup and service. Battery Charge the batteries! Always recharge the transmitter and receiver batteries before each flying session. A low battery will soon die potentially, causing loss of control and a crash. When you begin your flying session, reset your FMT-03s built-in timer, and during the session pay attention to the duration of usage. Stop flying long before your batteries become low on charge. Do not rely on your radios low battery warning systems, intended only as a precaution, to tell you when to recharge. Always check your transmitter and receiver batteries prior to each flight. Where to Fly We recommend that you fly at a recognized model airplane flying field. You can find model clubs and fields by asking your nearest hobby dealer, or in the US by contacting the Academy of Model Aeronautics. You can also contact the national Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA), which has more than 2,500 chartered clubs across the country. Through any one of them, instructor training programs and insured newcomer training are available. Contact the AMA at the address or toll-

free phone number below. Academy of Model Aeronautics 5161 East Memorial Drive Muncie, IN 47302 Tele. (800) 435-9262 Fax (765) 289-4248 or via the Internet at http:\\www. modelaircraft.org Always pay particular attention to the flying fields rules, as well as the presence and location of spectators, the wind direction, and any obstacles on the field. Be very careful flying in areas near power lines, tall buildings, or communication facilities as there may be radio interference in their vicinity. 6

= Prohibited

= Mandatory WARNING: Always keep electrical components away from small children. Flying Precautions WARNING Never grasp the transmitter antenna while flying. The transmitter output may drop drastically. Always make sure that all transmitter stick movements operate all channels properly in the model prior to flight. Also, make sure that all switches, etc. function properly as well. If there are any difficulties, do not use the system until all inputs are functioning properly. Never fly in the range check mode. In the dedicated range test range check mode, the transmitter output range is reduced and may cause a crash. While operating, never touch the transmitter with, or bring the transmitter near, another transmitter, a cellphone, or other wireless devices. Doing so may cause erroneous operation. Do not point the antenna directly toward the aircraft during flight. The antenna is directional and the transmitter output is weakest. (The strength of the radio waves is greatest from the sides of the antenna.) Never fly on a rainy day, when the wind is strong, and at night. Water could lead to failure or improper functionality and poor control of the aircraft which could lead to a crash. Never turn the power switch on and off during flight or while the engine or motor is running. Operation will become impossible and the aircraft will crash. Even if the power switch is turned on, operation will not begin until transmitter and receiver internal processing is complete. Do not fly when you are physically impaired as it could pose a safety hazard to yourself or others. Do not touch the engine, motor, or motor controller during and immediately after use. These items may become hot during use. 7

<Introduction>Do not fly at the following places:

Near another radio control ying eld. Near or above people. Near homes, schools, hospitals or other places where people congregate. Near high voltage lines, high structures, or communication facilities. For safety, fly so that the aircraft is visible at all times. Flying behind buildings or other large structures will not only cause you to lose sight of the aircraft, but also degrade the RF link performance and cause loss of control. From the standpoint of safety, always set the fail safe function. In particular, normally set the throttle channel to idle. When flying, always return the transmitter setup screen to the Home screen. Erroneous input during ight is extremely dangerous. Always check the remaining capacity of the transmitter and receiver battery before each flying session prior to flight. Low battery capacity will cause loss of control and a crash. Always check operation of each control functions and perform a range test before each flying session. Also, when using the trainer function, check the operation of both the teacher and student transmitter. Even one transmitter setting or aircraft abnormality cause a crash. Battery and Charger Handling Precautions DANGER Do not recharge a battery that is damaged, deteriorated, leaking electrolyte, or wet. Do not use the charger in applications other than as intended. Do not allow the charger or battery to become wet. Do not use the charger when it or your hands are wet. Do not use the charger in humid places. Do not short circuit the battery. Do not solder or repair, deform, modify, or disassemble the battery and/or battery charger. Do not drop the battery into a fire or bring it near a fire. 8 Before turning on the transmitter:

1. Always move the transmitter throttle stick position to the minimum (idle) position. 2. Turn on the transmitter first and then the receiver. When turning off the transmitter's power switch. After the engine or motor has stopped

(state in which it will not rotate again):

1. Turn off the receiver power switch. 2. Then turn off the transmitter power switch. If the power switch is turned on/o in the opposite order, the propeller may rotate unexpectedly and cause a serious injury. Also always observe the above order when setting the fail safe function. Maximum low throttle: Direction in which the engine or motor runs at the slowest speed or stops. When adjusting the transmitter, stop the engine except when necessary. In the case of a motor, disconnect the wiring and to allow it to continue operation. When doing so, please exercise extreme caution. Ensure that the aircraft is secured and that it will not come into contact with anything or anyone. Ensure that the motor will not rotate prior to making any adjustments. Unexpected high speed rotation of the motor/engine may cause a serious injury. Do not charge and store the battery in direct sunlight or other hot places. Do not charge the battery if it is covered with any object as it may become very hot. Do not use the battery in a combustible environment. The gas ignite and cause an explosion or re. Always charge the battery before each flying session. If the battery goes dead during ight, the aircraft will crash.

<Introduction>Charge the battery with the dedicated charger supplied with the set. Charging the battery past the specified value may cause a fire, combustion, rupture, or liquid leakage. When quick charging, do not charge the battery above 1C. Do not charge the battery while riding in a vehicle. Vibration will prevent normal charging. When using the LiFe battery, do not connect the charger to the balance charge connector and the power connector at the same time. Doing so could cause a fire, combustion, generation of heat, rupture, or liquid leakage. Insert the power cord plug firmly into the receptacle up to its base. Always use the charger with the specified power supply voltage. Use the special charger by connecting it to a proper power outlet. If the battery liquid should get in your eyes, do not rub your eyes, but immediately wash them with tap water or other clean water and get treated by a doctor. The liquid can cause blindness. WARNING Do not touch the charger and battery for any length of time during charging. Doing so may result burns. Do not use a charger or battery that has been damaged. Do not touch any of the internal components of the charger. Doing so may cause electric shock or a burn. If any abnormalities such as smoke or discoloration are noted with either the charger or the battery, remove the battery from the transmitter or charger and disconnect the power cord plug and do not use the charger. Continued use may cause fire, combustion, generation of heat, or rupture. Do not subject the battery to impact. Doing so may cause re, combustion, generation of heat, rupture, or liquid leakage. CAUTION Do not use the battery with devices other than the corresponding transmitter. Do not place heavy objects on top of the battery or charger. Also, do not place the battery or charger in any location where it fall. Doing so may cause damage or injury. Do not store or use the battery and charger where it is dusty or humid. Insert the power cord plug into the receptacle only after eliminating the dust. After the transmitter has been used for a long time, the battery may become hot. Immediately remove from the transmitter. Not doing so may cause a burn. Use and store the battery and battery charger in a secure location away from children. Doing so may cause electric shock or injury. If the battery leaks liquid or generates an abnormal odor, immediately move it to a safe place for disposal. Not doing so may cause combustion. If the battery liquid gets on your skin or clothing, immediately flush the area with tap water or other clean water. Consult a doctor. The liquid can cause skin damage. After the specified charging time has elapsed, end charging and disconnect the charger from the receptacle. When recycling or disposing of the battery, isolate the terminals by covering them with insulating tape. Short circuit of the terminals may cause combustion, generation of heat or rupture. Do not charge the battery in extreme temperatures. Doing so will degrade the battery performance. An ambient temperature of 10 to 30 (50F to 86F) is ideal for charging. Unplug the charger when not in use. Do not bend or pull the cord unreasonably and do not place heavy objects on the cord. The power cord may be damaged and cause combustion, generation of heat, or electric shock. 9

<Before Use>Receiver's Antenna Installation The FMR-03 has two antennas. In order to maximize signal reception and promote safe modeling Futaba has adopted a diversity antenna system. This allows the receiver to obtain RF signals on both antennas and fly problem-free.

*Must be kept as straight as possible. Antenna Coaxial cable To obtain the best results of the diversity function, please refer to the following instructions:

1. The two antennas must be kept as straight as possible. Otherwise it will reduce the effective range. 2. The two antennas should be placed at 90 degrees to each other. FMR-03 Receiver This is not a critical figure, but the most important thing is to keep the antennas away from each other as much as possible. Larger models can have large metal objects that can effect the RF signal. In this case the antennas should be placed at both sides of the model. Then the best RF signal condition is obtained at any flying attitude. 3. The antennas must be kept away from conductive materials, such as metal, carbon and fuel tank by at least a half inch. The coaxial part of the antennas does not need to follow these guidelines, but do not bend it in a tight radius. 4. Keep the antennas away from the motor, ESC, and other noise sources as much as possible.

*The two antennas should be placed at 90 degrees to each other.

*The illustration demonstrates how the antenna should be placed.

*Install in a way that makes sure that the 2 antennas won't touch the ground. When an antenna touches the ground, there is danger which becomes control impossibility. Antenna dont touch the ground. 25

Periodically check the cable during daily maintenance. Margin in the lead wire. Fasten about 5-10cm from the servo outlet so that the lead wire is neat. Mounting the power switch When mounting a power switch to an airframe, make a rectangular hole that is a little larger than the total stroke of the switch so that you can turn the switch ON/OFF without binding. Avoid mounting the switch where it can be covered by engine oil and dust. In general, it is recommended to mount the power switch on the side of the fuselage that is opposite the muffler. Safety precautions when you install receiver and servos WARNING Connecting connectors Be sure to insert the connector until it stops at the deepest point. How to protect the receiver from vibration Wrap the receiver with something soft such as foam rubber to avoid vibration. Receiver's antenna Never cut the receiver's antenna. Do not bind the receiver's antenna with the cables for servos. Locate the receiver's antenna as far as possible from metals or carbon fiber components such as frames, cables, etc.

*Cutting or binding the receiver's antenna will reduce the radio reception sensitivity and range, and may cause a crash. Servo throw Adjust your system so that pushrods will not bind or sag when operating the servos to the full extent.

*If excessive force is continuously applied to a servo, the servo could be damaged due to force on the gear train and/or power consumption causing rapid battery drain. Mounting servos Use a vibration-proof rubber (such as rubber grommet) under a servo when mounting the servo on a servo mount. And be sure that the servo cases do not push directly to the metal parts such as servo mount.

*If the servo case contacts the airframe directly, vibration will travel to and possibly damage the servo. 26

<Basic Operation> Link procedure (FMT-03 FMR-03) Each transmitter has an individually assigned, unique ID code. In order to start operation, the receiver must be linked with the ID code of the transmitter with which it is being paired. Once the link is made, the ID code is stored in the receiver and no further linking is necessary unless the receiver is to be used with another transmitter. When you purchase additional FMR-03 receivers, this procedure is necessary; otherwise the receiver will not work. Link procedure 1. Place the transmitter and the receiver close to each other within half (0.5m) meter. Less than 0.5 m 2. Turn on the transmitter. 3. Select [SYSTEM TYPE] at the Linkage menu and access the setup screen shown below by pushing the RTN button. 6. [RECEIVER-ID] is chosen by scrolling and the RTN button is pushed. The transmitter will emit a chime as it starts the linking process. 7. When the transmitter starts to chime, power on the receiver. The receiver should link to the transmitter within about 1 second.

:You can do this through the LINKAGE Menu and scroll to System and push RTN. In "Link" Mode 4. When you use two receivers on one model, you must change from [SINGLE] to [DUAL].

*Only two receivers can be used. In

"DUAL", two setting items come out. Input, respectively. ID of a primary receiver displays. ID of a secondary receiver displays. 8. If linking fails, an error message is displayed. Bring the transmitter closer to the receiver and repeat the procedure above from Step 2. Receiver ON 9. ACT will be chosen if telemetry is used. It is INH when not using it. In DUAL, a primary receiver is link previously. Next, a secondary receiver is link. 5. When changing battery fail-safe voltage from the initial value 3.8V, voltage is changed here. 33

<Basic Operation>10. When a telemetry function is enabled, the receiving interval (down-link interval) of sensor data can be changed. If a DL interval is increased, the response of the sensor data display becomes slower, but stick response will improve. Initial value: 1.0s Adjustment range: 0.1s~2.0s

* If there are many FASSTest systems turned on around your receiver, it might not link to your transmitter. In this case, even if the receiver's LED stays solid green, unfortunately the receiver might have established a link to one of other transmitters. This is very dangerous if you do not notice this situation. In order to avoid the problem, we strongly recommend you to doublecheck whether your receiver is really under control by your transmitter by giving the stick input and then checking the servo response.

*Do not perform the linking operation when the drive motor is connected or the engine is running.

*When you use two receivers, please be sure to setup a

"primary" and "secondary" in the "dual" mode.

*Telemetry function cannot be used for the 2nd receiver.

* You must link one receiver at a time. If both power supplies to the receivers are switched on simultaneously, data is received incorrectly by the transmitter.

* You cannot link three receivers.

* Link is required when a system type is changed.

* Linking is required whenever a new model is made. WARNING After the linking is done, please cycle receiver power and check that the receiver to be linked is really under the control of the transmitter. Do not perform the linking procedure with motor's main wire connected or with the engine operating as it may result in serious injury. 34

<Basic Operation>Range Testing Your R/C System It is extremely important to range check your models prior to each flying session. This enables you to ensure that everything is functioning as it should and to obtain maximum enjoyment from your time flying. The FMT-03 transmitter incorporates a system that reduces its power output and allows you to perform such a range check. Range check mode 1. While pushing previously "U.menu/Mon" button. 2. FMT-03 Power ON. U.menu/Mon 3. Scroll to "NO" and push RTN. 4. "RANGE CHECK" is chosen from

"SYSTEM MENU" and push RTN. 5. "YES" is chosen from "RANGE CHECK" and push RTN. During this mode, the RF power output is reduced so the range test can be performed. In addition, when this mode is activated the right LED on the front of the transmitter starts blinking and the transmitter gives users a warning with a beeping sound every 3 seconds. The "Range check mode" continues for 90 seconds and after that the power will return to the normal level. To exit the "Range check mode" before the 90 seconds, select the "EXIT" at the screen and touch the RTN button again. This mode is available one time only so if you need to re-use this function the transmitter power must be cycled. NEVER start flying when the "Range check mode" is active. Should you require additional time to perform a range check, highlight Restart before your time expires and press the RTN button one time. Range check procedure 1. With the "Range check mode" on, walk away from the model while simultaneously operating the controls. Have an assistant stand by the model to confirm that all controls are completely and correctly operational. You should be able to walk approximately 30-50 paces from the model without losing control. 2. If everything operates correctly, return to the model. Set the transmitter in a safe, yet accessible, location so it will be within reach after starting the engine or motor. Be certain the throttle stick is in the low throttle position, then start the engine or motor. Perform another range check with your assistant holding the aircraft with the engine running at various speeds. If the servos jitter or move inadvertently, there may be a problem. We would strongly suggest you do not fly until the source of the difficulty has been determined. Look for loose servo connections or binding pushrods. Also, be certain that the battery has been fully charged. Range checking on low power. Holding the aircraft. About 100 feet Range check mode WARNING Do not fly in the range check mode.

*Since the range of the radio waves is short, if the model is too far from the transmitter, control will be lost and the model will crash. 35

<Basic Operation>Cannels connection by multicopter type The FMT-03 transmitter channels are automatically assigned for optimal combination according to the type selected with the Model Type function of the Linkage Menu.

S1 Scrolling Moving cursor Push the S1 button to call next page. S.BUS SERVO An S.BUS/S.BUS2 servo can memorize the channel and various settings internally. Servo setting changes can be performed on the FMT-03 screen by wiring the servo as shown in the figure. Servo ID number Individual ID numbers are memorized for your S.BUS servos in your FMT-03. When a servo is used (as shown at the right), the servo ID number is automatically read by the transmitter. If you use multiple S.BUS servos and do not want to change the settings on all that are mounted in a fuselage, only the desired servo in the group can be set by entering the ID of that specific servo.

* With S.BUS/S.BUS2 servos of use, there are a function which can be used, and an impossible function and a display screen changes.

(Only the function which can be used by a servo is displayed.) Call the following setting screen by pushing the

[S.BUS Servo] button in the System Menu. Select the function name and return to the System menu by pushing the RTN button or pushing the Home/Exit button. Procedure for changing S.BUS/S.BUS2 servo setting 1. Select [S.BUS Servo] of the System Menu. 2. Wire the servo as shown in the figure above. 3. Push [READ]. The ID and current setting of that servo are displayed. 4. When multiple servos are connected change

[INH] at the right side of the ID number on the screen to [ACT] and enter the ID of the servo you want to set. 5. Set each item. (Please see the next page.) 6. Push [WRITE]. The settings are changed. 46

<Functions of System Menu>S.BUS Servo Description of function of each parameter

*There are some functions which can only be used with certain types of servos. ID Displays the ID of the servo whose parameters are to be read. It cannot be changed. Channel Channel of the S.BUS system is assigned to the servo. Always assign a channel before use. Reverse The direction in which the servo rotates can be changed. Servo type When Retractable is selected and the servo has been continuously stopped for 30 seconds, the dead band expands and unnecessary hold current due to external force is eliminated. When a new control signal enters, normal operation is resumed. When using the servo as a landing gear servo, select Retractable. Also adjust the servo travel to match the landing gear movement range. Soft Start Restricts operation in the specified direction the instant the power is turned on. By using this setting, the first initial movement when the power is turned on slowly moves the servo to the specified position. Stop Mode The state of the servo when the servo input signal is lost can be specified. The "Hold" mode setting holds the servo in its last commanded position even if using AM or FM system. Smoother This function changes smoothness of the servo operation relative to stick movement changes. Smooth setting is used for normal flight. Select the "OFF" mode when quick operation is necessary such as 3D. Neutral Offset The neutral position can be changed. When the neutral offset is large value, the servo's range of travel is restricted on one side. Speed Control Speeds can be matched by specifying the operating speed. The speed of multiple servos can be matched without being affected by motor fluctuations. This is effective for load torques below the maximum torque. However, note that the maximum speed will not be exceed what the servo is capable of even if the servos operating voltage is increased. Dead band The dead band angle at stopping can be specified.

[Relationship between dead band set value and servo operation]

Small Dead band angle is small and the servo is immediately operated by a small signal change. Large Dead band angle is large and the servo does not operate at small signal changes.

(Note) If the dead band angle is too small, the servo will operate continuously and the current consumption will increase and the life of the servo will be shortened. Travel Adjust The left and right travels centered about the neutral position can be set independently. Boost The minimum current applied to the internal motor when starting the servo can be set. Since a small travel does not start the motor, it essentially feels like the dead band was expanded. The motor can be immediately started by adjusting the minimum current which can start the motor.

[Relationship between boost set value and servo operation]

Small Motor reacts less to a change and operation becomes smooth. Large Initial response improves and output torque increases. However, if the torque is too large, operation will become rough. 47

<Functions of System Menu> Boost ON/OFF OFF : The boost turns ON at the time of lower-demand operation. (In most cases) ON : The boost is always ON. (When quick operation is needed) Damper The characteristic when the servo is stopped can be set. When smaller than the standard value, the characteristic becomes an overshoot characteristic. If the value is larger than the standard value, the brake is applied before the stop position. Especially, when a large load is applied, overshoot, etc. are suppushed by inertia and hunting may occur, depending on the conditions. If hunting (phenomena which cause the servo to oscillate) occurs even though the Dead Band, Stretcher, Boost and other parameters are suitable, adjust this parameter to a value larger than the initial value.

[Relationship between damper set value and servo operation]

Small When you want to overshoot. Set so that hunting does not occur. Large When you want to operate so that braking is not applied. However, it will feel like the servo response has slowed down.

(Note) If used in the hunting state, not only will the current consumption increase, but the life of the servo will also be shortened. Stretcher The servo hold characteristic can be set. The torque which attempts to return the servo to the target position when the current servo position has deviated from the target position can be adjusted. This is used when stopping hunting, etc., but the holding characteristic changes as shown below.

[Relationship between stretcher and servo operation]

Small Servo holding force becomes weaker. Large Servo holding force becomes stronger.

(Note) When this parameter is large, the current consumption increases. Buzzer When the power supply of a servo is interrupted or a loss of signal from the transmitter, the buzzer sound of about 2.5Hz continues sounding from a servo.

(Even when the signal output of a transmitter is lost, a buzzer becomes until the signal of a servo is outputted normally.) The transmitter has been turned OFF ahead of a servo power supply The buzzer sound of about 1.25 Hz continues sounding to show that the servo power supply is still turned on.

(Do not insert or remove the servo connector while the receiver power is ON.A buzzer may sound by incorrect recognition.)

*Buzzer sound is generated by vibrating the motor of a servo. Since a lot of current is consumed and a servo generates heat during buzzer sounds, please do not operate the feature more than needed or do not continue sounding a buzzer for a long time. 48

FAIL SAFE The Failsafe function may be used to set up positions that the servos move to in the case of radio interference. You may set either of two positions for each channel: Hold, where the servo maintains its last commanded position, or Failsafe, where each servo moves to a predetermined position. You may choose either mode for each channel. The FMT-03 system also provides you with an advanced battery monitoring function that warns you when the receiver battery has only a little power remaining. In this case, each servo is moved to the defined failsafe position. The battery failsafe may be released by operating a predefined control on the transmitter, do not continue to fly, land as soon as possible. Remember, if the predefined control suddenly moves to a position you did not command, land at once and check your receiver battery. Defines servo position when signals are lost and when receiver battery voltage becomes low. WARNING For safety, always set the fail safe functions. Remember to set the throttle channel fail safe function so that the servo moves to the maximum slow side for airplanes and to the slow side from the hovering position for helicopters. Crashing of the model at full high when normal radio waves cannot be received due to interference, etc., is very dangerous. If the battery fail safe is reset by the throttle stick, it may be mistaken for an engine malfunction and will be reset at throttle slow and the model will continue to fly. If you have any doubts, immediately land. Select [FAIL SAFE] at the linkage menu and call the setup screen shown below by pushing the RTN button.

(The display screen is an example. The screen depends on the model type.) Scrolling Moving cursor Selecting mode Push the S1 button to call next page. Fail safe setting procedure 1.

[What is a slot?]

Servos are classified by CH, but sensors are classified in units called slot. There are slots from #1 to #31. Altitude sensors, GPS sensors and other data sensor units may use multiple slots. Using a sensor which uses two or more slots, the required number of slots is automatically assigned by setting up a start slot. When 2 or more of the same kind of sensor are used, the sensors themselves must allocate unused slots and memorize that slot. Select the function name and return to the Linkage menu by pushing the RTN button or pushing the Home/Exit button.

Trainer system starting and setting TRAINER FMT-03 trainer system makes it possible for the instructor to chose which channels and operation modes that can be used in the students transmitter. The function and rate of each channel can be set, the training method can also be matched to the student's skill level. Two FMT-03s must be connected by an optional Trainer Cord, and the Instructors transmitter should be programmed for trainer operation, as described below. When the Instructor activates the trainer switch, the student has control of the aircraft (if MIX/

FUNC/NORM mode is turned on, the Instructor can make corrections while the student has control). When the switch is released the Instructor regains control. This is very useful if the student gets the aircraft into an undesirable situation. Setting data are stored to model data. Student rate can be adjusted at MIX/FUNC/

NORM mode. Activated student channels can be selected by switches. NOTE: This trainer system can be used in the following manner;

1 . W i t h t h e F M T - 0 3 t r a n s m i t t e r a n d a conventional transmitter, if the channel order is different, it is necessary to match the channel order before using this function. You can select the channel of input data from student's transmitter in the "FUNC" or

PROG. MIXES Programmable mixing may be used to correct undesired tendencies of the aircraft, and it may also be used for unusual control configurations. Mixing means that the motion of a command channel, called the "master," is added to the motion of the mixed channel, called "slave."

You may choose to have the Master's trim added to the Slave channel response ("Trim" setting). The mixing curve can be changed so that the undesired tendencies can be corrected effectively by setting the EXP1/EXP2/POINT modes. The Delay function can be programmed for each rate. The Delay is used to change the rate smoothly when switching mixes. You may define Mixing ON/OFF switch, control or you may choose to have mixing remaining on all the time. Mixing ON/OFF delay time can be adjusted. The Programmable mixing includes a powerful link function, which allows Programmable mixing to be linked with the special mixing functions, or with other programmable mixing functions. The link function can be set up for Master and Slave channel individually. The slave channel AFR mode (STK-STK mode) may be selected, where the slave channel AFR and D/R settings are observed when Link function is set. The knob for fine tuning can be set up for every mixing circuit. (Fine tune function) The programmable mixing (in mixing mode) STK to STK mixing function can be used even when the Master is a stick or other hardware. Select [PROG.

[Corresponding model type]: Airplane/glider, V-Tail

(Effective only when 2 servos used at the elevators) Ailevator is where each elevator in a standard

(conventional) or v-tail moves independently, like ailerons on a wing. In addition to each elevator side moving up and down together, each side moves in opposite directions when moving as an ailevator. On a V-tail, this is also known as a ruddervator, as they can serve the same purpose. Typically, both ailevator and ailerons are coupled together to maximize roll performance, especially on larger wingspan planes. Note: Select ailevator as the Model type at the Model type screen. This changes the output channel. Check the Function menu. Select [AILEVATOR] at the model menu and call the setup screen shown below by pushing the RTN button. ELEVATOR

[Corresponding model type]: Airplane/glider, winglet Winglets are used to improve the efficiency of aircraft lowering the lift-induced drag caused by wingtip vortices. The winglet is a vertical or angled extension at the tips of each wing. Winglets work by increasing the effective aspect ratio wing without adding greatly to the structural stress and hence necessary weight of its structure

- an extension of wing span would also permit lowering of induced drag, though it would cause parasitic drag and would require boosting the strength of the wing and hence its weight - there would come a point at which no overall useful saving would be made. A winglet helps to solve this by effectively increasing the aspect ratio without adding to the span of the wing. RUDDER 1 Winglet at Flying wing
