The Flex Innovation Team's Cessna 170 Extreme Setup alters the flap behavior and adjusts other elements to allow the Cessna 170 to do maneuvers well beyond those of it's full-scale counterpart, even into the '3D' realm. The Aura 8 and its powerful capability is a key part of this capability. It allows the Flaps to be reconfigured with the flip of a switch from 'conventional flaps', to 'prop blasted' ailerons with gyro enhanced stability.
Typically, the key elements of the setup are:
- Modified flap linkage and geometry to allow the flaps to move up and down and to act as 'Ailerons', etc.
- A software change via downloaded Aura Config File (.acf) that activates the flaps as ailerons and includes gyro inputs in specific flight modes.
- Use of a 6S Battery (typically) for awesome power.
Below you will conversion instructions and more detailed descriptions of the Aura Flight Modes (FM).
