Hi Folks
I got a question for ya all...
On a Stylus Radio
When I mix the Rudder with the switch # 1,2,3
And I'm in the mix menu
When I give an amount in the 1st & 2nd switch position
no amount in the center position.....
For some reason the mix doesn't shut off when the switch is in the center position.
Where have I screwed up???
Thanks

Hi Al,
There are a couple of things that can cause the problem that you describe.
First, scroll to the landing screen (LAND) and verify that the landing percentage (LAND POINT) is 95% or less. If it is not, reduce it. The reason that this is critical can be seen when scrolling to the bottom of the Landing Screen. The Aileron-to-Rudder mix (AI->RU)HIGH is most likely set to "YES".
So, if the Stylus thinks that you are in landing mode, then you can never shut off the mix, regardless what you do in the MIX menu.
If the landing percentage is 95% or less, then what? There is another potential problem that can be determined by doing the following:
Scroll to the stick switch menu (ST-SW). On the top line of this screen, set the channel (CH) to spoilers (SP). Now move the flap stick up and down. In the lower, right-hand corner of the display, you'll see the numeric value of the flap stick. Move this up and down several times and watch the values at each extreme. They should be 0% and 100%. If the values are different from 0% or 100% at the extremes of travel, then the flap potentiometer shaft is slipping. Again, causing you to be stuck in landing mode.
Oh, if you're using the Helicopter card, the problem above will manifest itself by constantly displaying the "TH-STK HIGH!" alarm ;-)
Let me know what you find.
