Default Help with step trim on DX7!

Hi guys!

I need some help please! I've got a Spektrum dx7 and I need to adjust the step trim of my transmitter.
I'm flying a airskipper 50. I can't find such a function on the dx7. Now I can't do fine adjustments on my rudder.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

steenkp,

I ran into the same issue with my Extreme Flight Yak 54... Looks like there is no trim step option in the programming of the DX7.

I don't know if this helps or not, but I use one of the MIXES and select a toggle switch as the master (I used the GEAR switch), then select the function I want to temporarily re-trim. With the switch in "ON" mode it adds the amount of TRIM I preset. I use this method for my IDLE UP (flying idle). It works OK.

Hope this helps...

Mark

Can't do - one of the biggest and most overlooked drawbacks of DX-7.

This is why I am holding out for the modules - that now exist - for my 9C. It has all the features that I need and I like the way it feels!!
