Radio System FAQ

I am in the process of setting up retracts for a P51. My problem is that the gear doors move too quickly and catch the retract wheel before they can close. I have adjusted the speed of servo but I need a bit of lag. I am using two servos, one for the gear doors, one for the retract air valve. Is there a way to use a Pmix to set the retract door servo to lag a bit before it activates so the wheel has time to drop far enough to clear the doors?

You can set this up by adjusting the speed in the AFR/DR menu. Go into the AFR menu, select Gear; at the bottom of the main page set the Speed Out at 22. Next go into Channel 7 (which we set up for the gear doors) and set the Speed In to 22. This allows for a slow movement of the gear coming down, which allows the doors to fully open. And upon retracting the gear, it allows for faster gear up, and then slower door closing. Note: Speed IN and OUT may need to be adjusted to give proper operation of your model.
