I am about to move my Sylphide to the Jeti DS-16. I found some major features missing for non FBL setup, at least for advanced pitch and throttle realtime adjustment.

On my Futaba I use the two rotary knobs and both side sliders to adjust several pitch and throttle functions. This is done in the Pitch Curve and Throttle Curve menus on screens 2 or 3.

- I use one rotary knob to change the steepness of the pitch curve in Normal, to adjust hover pitch sensitivity according to wind gusts' characteristics.
- The other rotary knob adds and subtracts 10% to whatever throttle I am in, mainly in Normal. This is to fine adjust rpm also depending on wind.
- Left slider moves the whole pitch curve up and down. This allows that when you modify rpm with the rotary knob you callibrate pitch to hover at mid stick.
- Last the right slider adjust the last point of my Idle pitch curve to be able to modify max pitch according to need, just a fine adjustment.

I use all of this a lot and can't do any of that at all. Is it possible to include this in future developments of the software? It's pretty important for F3C. It's pretty simple, pitch and throttle curve management from proportional controls with some finer details. I'd take a look at Futaba, even the 8FG has advanced controls over this.

Thanks, Marcos

Hello,

just use some free mixers. I think it´s all already there what you need.

No it's not. Mixes are useful to eliminate interactions. How do you make a mix raise only the last point on a 5 point pitch line with the right slider? Or change the steepness of a pitch curve with a rotary knob? That's negative for the first half and positive for the second half.

If I am missing something I'd thank someone to please orient me. I think you mean you can mix pitch with itself and put the knob in there to say by how much. I'll be trying that. However some Pitch adjustment tools in dedicated screens would be sweet.

Hello,

free mixers do have function curves. So if you want only a mix on the 5th point, make this 10 % or so and set the other four points to zero.
