Wayne posted an excellent description of how to set up a downline mix here:
https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/show...ostcount=21384 It mixes in a small amount of down elevator when your throttle is below 1/4 stick, proportional to how far below 1/4 stick you are. Works great, I used it exactly as he describes, except I only use 1%. What that compensates for is that you've probably trimmed for level flight at 3/4 throttle or so, which means a very small amount of up elevator trim. Trying to go straight down, at low throttle (so no thrust angle helping you out), that makes the plane pull to the canopy. Unless you have a downline mix. |

Or for a different way with a stick condition http://www.flyinggiants.com/forums/s...4&postcount=17 So here we go one more added.

Down line mix for imac
I also figured it out:
But different way of doing it than Wayne. Mine will only be active with throttle stick from 0 to 5% down. Once stick moves up past 5% up, the mix will be off. For my friends who have converted to Jeti, I often get asked, how do I set up a down line mix, this is sometimes required for drawing straight lines, on a down line, when throttle is all the way down. For example, if you do a hammer head or a humpty bump, the downline has to be straight down, meaning, perpendicular to the earth. Usually, the airplane may have a tendency to pull out, so in order to counter this, we need to give a tiny bit of elevator push (down elevator). http://www.flyinggiants.com/forums/s...4&postcount=17 |

Added in my previous post to complete the list. Nicely done Cam

Start Engine/motor only with throttle down and a switch
A nice write up by TeroS we should all use that safety protocol.

Soft start an electric motor on a switch
like the title says: a soft start on an electric motor when you have the motor on a switch and not the throttle stick.

Center stick beep on autorotation only
This can be used for different purposes or in different ways. I use this in autorotation but with a beep that correspond to -5 degrees of deflection instead of center stick.

Heli Low RPM Alarm
After RPM is stabilized in flight, have an alarm that warns you of RPM dropping below threshold.

Variable Rate Switch
Having mentioned this to a fellow club member who is very well versed in Jeti facilities and was unaware of this, it might be worth recording here for the benefit of others. If you assign dual rates to a rotary control set as Prop(ortional) then you have a variable rate switch between the two settings - potentially rather useful when maidening a model with unspecified control movements and for finding the ideal amount of control deflection in a single flight. Although it looks like it simply switches from one rate to the other on the main Dual Rate/Exponential screen, monitoring servo movement on the edit screen or Receiver Output display shows the servo movement proportional to the rotary switch position. I'm not sure why, but the adjustment seems to happen between in the first 50% of the rotary control movement but there should be enough granularity for practical use. I would recommend setting a starting point above zero to avoid any embarrassment in the case of leaving insufficient travel for any response! See the attached screen dump for more details. |
