-Introduction:<br />
 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 features are 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, or 'crow' with gyro in the loop on all 4 wing control surfaces.

+The key elements of the Extreme Setup are typically:
-*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 though not required) for awesome power.
-Below you will find conversion instructions and more detailed descriptions of the Aura Flight Modes (FM). The process is quite easy, though it is described in great detail!
