Thanks Bob for replying.  Unfortunately, I still have this problem as I
discussed earlier about the elevator dual rates.  I tried starting all over
again from scratch and I still have the elevator deflecting "up"
approximately 1/16".  I didn't mix anything in.  I tried to see what would
happen if I started fresh and worked on the setting up the dual rates first
after centering the servos.  The same situation would happen with the
elevator deflecting up 1/16".

The d/r percentage that this deflection would be noticeable is around 75 to
85 percent of the dual rates on.  Again the setup is a Mini Ellipse with one
servo actuating the v-tail and two aileron servos.  The tranny is a Stylus
with glider card.  I have set up the spoileron, aileron diff and aileron d/r
(with no problems on the aileron d/r on or off) and spoileron/elevator mix.
But the elevator deflecting up with the d/r on is driving me crazy!

Any other help will be greatly appreciated!

Sometimes it's just easier to start over, especially with just a 3 servo
program (reset).  If you must trouble shoot, it sounds like you have "armed"
your "Elevator Position Switch" (default is second switch from right on
front of X-mitter...not top).  It allows you 3 elevator trim positions.  Or
maybe one of your "elevator positions" is miss programmed to your "dual rate
elevator" switch.

Good Luck,
