DUAL

RATE

(AILERON, ELEVATOR, AND RUDDER)

Dual rate functions allow the flyer to alter the

maximum servo travel (and therefore control sensi-

tivity) during flight by using the appropriate rate

switch. At D/R OFF, servo deflection is maximum

in both directions (unless limited by ATV set-

tings). At D/R ON, servo deflection is reduced by

a percentage set with the D/R trimmers. Dual rate

adjustments always effect both directions of servo

travel.

AILERON DUAL RATE

• The aileron rate switch 14 has two D/R ON positions. Thus three different servo travel rates are available

on aileron. Rates can be adjusted to suit varying aircraft and maneuver requirements.

Aileron dual rate trimmer (1)

This trimmer sets the aileron travel when the aileron dual rate switch 14 is set

to the dual ON I position.

Aileron dual rate trimmer 2

This trimmer sets the aileron travel

when the aileron dual rate switch

14 is set to the dual ON 2 posi-

tion.

Trimmers [1] and [2] can adjust the

aileron travel from 40% to 80% of

the total travel.

When the dual rate switch is set to

ON, the servo throw can be set to

an arbitary angle smaller than

when the dual rate switch is OFF

(normal) as shown in Fig. 37. Use

the throw matched to the aircraft

and the maneuvers to be perform-

ed.

LINEAR ->VTR selector

This switch linearly switches the

aileron servo when the aileron dual

rate switch 14 is in the OFF posi-

tion.

ELEVATOR DUAL RATE RUDDER DUAL RATE

Fig.

Elevator dual rate trimmer

This trimmer sets the elevator

deflection angle when the el-

evator dual rate switch 15 is

in the ON position. It has the

same functions as A, aileron

dual rate I .

LINEAR-> VTR selector

This switch changes the eleva-

tor servo operation linearity

when the selector dual rate

switch 16 is in the OFF po-

sition. It has the same func-

tions as (A) aileron dual rate(1),

Rudder dual rate trimmer

This trimmer sets the rudder

deflection angle when the

rudder dual rate switch 16 is

in the ON position. It has the

same functions as A aileron

dual rate I .

LINEAR-> VTR selector

This switch changes the rud-

der servo operating linearity

when the rudder dual rate

switch 16 is in the OFF po-

sition. It has the same func-

tions as (A) aileron dual rate(1).
