Default Kraft Mark III and Mark IV question

Hey Kraft aficionados. One switch is baffling me on the 2 radios I just picked up. It appears to do the same thing on both transmitters. In the picture, it is located to the right of a slow roll button up by the 5th (retract) channel switch.




I assumed it was going to be rudder dual rates, but this is not the case. When turned on, it appears to not affect rudder control, but aileron movement will cause REVERSED rudder movement. All I can figure is this would induce a side-slip type of control.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Sounds like you need a manual for this puppy! PM me your snail address and I'll send you a copy.

It's a coupled aileron with rudder on off switch. The Pot in front of it is the volume of coupling.

I scanned the Kraft Mk. III and Mk. IV manual and have it available for anyone who wants it. Since RCU does not support the .pdf format, email me for a copy.
