    Would you ever do a x9d dlg set up from beginning to end. I have not found one person to demo it and i think the video would be very popular. I’m someone my self who has been completely stuck with a 1M that i have not been successful loading a model preset and be able to adjust it to work for my dlg. If i could afford a spectrum i would have and just followed this video because you have the best videos!

    • @ArmSoar

      You can use it as a starting point but it'll likely be slightly different than what you'll end up needed since each model is set up differently:
      0.0%
      18.0%
      30.5%
      40.0%
      43.0%

      Alternative is to Set the offset in camber System to 100 or -100 when only using down Stick travel

  • @pedrogodoycruz
    @pedrogodoycruz 2 роки тому

    How can you set aileron travel limits? If you limit travel to have reasonable limits to the ailerons (+15mm, -10mm) it also limits the flap deflection. To have proper brakes, aileron down deflection during normal flying is way too much. I cannot find independent limits for aileron and flaps. NX10 and DX9. Both are the same.

    • @ArmSoar
      @ArmSoar  2 роки тому

      You can use differential to adjust the aileron movement.
