Reading actual trim values on 8UAFs
Hi
I have a 8UAFs TX and I am converting a number of model settings over to a 10C. The only thing that does not seem to be available is the actual trim settings stored for the four basic channels, Ail, Elev, Throttle and Rudder. One can read them from the LCD display and get close enough I believe.
One can read back the:
Trim Steps:
Subtrim settings:
After I am done moving the model profile/programming will adjust the "digital" trims on the front of the transmitter for the same "view" on the LCD screen which should be fine but was just wondering if the actual stored "trim" values could be read somehow.

RE: Reading actual trim values on 8UAFs
The numbers are relative and really don't have "abolute" values. You should just measure the deflection of your control surface when in the neutral position and then adjust the linkage so that the trim on the new transmitter is as close to zero as possible.
