Dual Elevator Servos
Hi Mike!
I have the Eclipse 7, and I was wondering about a dual elevator servo setup, is there a way to manipulate the preprogrammed mixes, or is the only way to do it with a programmable slave-master mix? I'm just worried about bumping the wrong switch and then I only have one elevator half working. Thanks,
Eric

This is a weak spot of the Eclipse since there is no specific dual elevator mix. I use a pix and put the other elevator half on channel #7. Since the trim does not link I use the VR-2 knob to fine tune to the other half. Your other option is to use a Y-harness.

Thanks for you help, I'll try that. In your experience, even though it's jumping thru hoops a little bit, is it still easier to set up and tune then a y?

Dual Elevator Dilemmas
Is there a way to disable the VR2 knob like you can the flap trim knob, and just adjust the trims on the ground using the subtrim function?
