Figure20: Basic glider flap settings
Setting the flap phase 1 is still the last step, as the other flap phases are not used. In
the flap phase, we activate both the aileron mixer for the inner flaps and the proportional
inputs for flaps and spoilers. If we were to work with flap phases as opposed to
proportional control, we would have to enter the desired fixed values in all used flap
phases.
Alternative flap control
Instead of proportional control of the flaps and spoilers, it is also possible to work with
flap phases. Even a mix of fixed values and proportional inputs is feasible. This allows
an extremely high level of flexibility.
In our example, we want to leave the spoiler on the slide control of the transmitter as a
proportional function with channel 5, but control the flaps using the 3-stage switch with
transmitter channel 6 over three flap phases.
