14MZ Radio System FAQ

I want to use one of the 3 position switches for Flap usage, eg. Down=Off, 1= 15%, and 2 = 40%. This should be done by the ailerons, and they should still function as Ailerons. Can you help?

Here is how we have ours set up...assuming you have 2-Aileron wing type and Normal Tail Type, we did 2 Offset Pmixes.

Go into Model Menu, Prog. Mixes, touch the Mode button between Mixing and Group. This will change and will ask for confirmation of your change. Touch Yes, then touch number 1 under Mixing, this will bring you to your program mixing screen. You will see the word Slave, touch this once if it DOES NOT say Aileron and change it, but it should already say Aileron. Next set your offset to 15%, and then go to the top and select a 3 Position switch to put this on, select the center portion of the switch as the On position. Close that screen, go back to the screen you were just on, and under number two under the Slave column, touch this and choose Aileron 2...then select your percentage again for this servo.

Now you will simply back out of that screen and follow these same steps again, but this time the only thing you will change will be the amount of percentage, which will be 40%.

What you will now have will be slightly different than what you asked for but it will be as follows:

Flaps:
Up (back)= Off
Middle = 15% down
Bottom = 40% down

But these will continue to act as Ailerons in any switch position.
