[RCSE] 9303 aileron to rudder coupling
I am trying to set up my 9303 to turn off the aileron rudder coupling via the right back Mix switch. I have been unable to locate the setup as I had on my 8103. Can some help with a pointer on how to do it? Thanks Chris RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Re: [RCSE] 9303 aileron to rudder coupling
Some old habits don't go away... Normally aileron to rudder coupling is set up by flight mode. Flight modes make it possible to have more than two mixes. In fact for aileron to rudder, you should set the mix to 100% in launch mode in case you forget to use the correct stick. My suggestion if you want on/off mixing would be to use one of the programmable mixers. Configure aileron to rudder. Have the mix switch change you to position 1. Set the aileron to rudder mix rates you want for position 0 and then leave the mixes for position 1 at 0. In reality you probably don't want to go to 0, just a very low value. So you could set position 1 to some small numbers like 6 or 7. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am trying to set up my 9303 to turn off the aileron rudder coupling via the right back Mix switch.

RE: [RCSE] 9303 aileron to rudder coupling
Mike, you are quite right, old habits. I was trying to use the Aileron to Rudder standard mix rather than using a separate programming mix. I guess I have to set the pre-programmed mix to 0 and go to the programmed mix. I use on/off on my DLG so I can practice rudder with my left thumb. I prefer coupling, but I wanted to see a good roll with a new DLG just built. I set my rudder up exponentially, so that my rudder kicks in fast before the aileron takes over. I like more top-rudder ( believe that is what that is). I found recently I was cross-coupling the aileron and rudder for flatter turns. My old habits go back to just rudder elevator on planes with more dihedral. Thanks for the help.

Re: [RCSE] 9303 aileron to rudder coupling
Or, you could try and use one of the flight modes as 0 rudder mix. Don't know if you use all 5 or have switches set so that you could use all fo them.
