Takeoff/Launch Assist Mode for RV-8 10E G2
Takeoff/Launch Assist Mode is a special mode that can help beginners or advanced pilots during challenging takeoff conditions. Once Takeoff/Launch Assist has been activated, it will control the roll and pitch angle of your airplane, keeping the wings level and commanding a brisk climb out to a safe altitude.
How to Activate Takeoff/Launch Assist Mode
- Hold your Transmitter sticks at the following positions for at least 3 seconds:
- Throttle low
- Rudder centered
- Full left aileron
- Full up elevator
- The airplane must be still/stationary to enter Takeoff/Launch Assist.
- When Takeoff/Launch Assist is active you will see the elevator go up to hold a climb and the ailerons move to try to keep the wings level. You can now return the Aileron and Elevator sticks to center.
- The Red LED on the Aura will also slowly flash to indicate Launch Assist is Activated.
How to Exit Takeoff/Launch Assist Mode
- Once Takeoff/Launch Assist is active, you can proceed to takeoff by advancing the throttle and using the rudder to steer.
- Do not accidentally move the aileron or elevator sticks from center after advancing the throttle as this will Disable Takeoff/Launch Assist!
- Once you have advanced the Throttle and are at a comfortable altitude, you can move the Aileron or Elevator stick to disable Takeoff/ Launch Assist and resume normal control.
If you are having trouble activating Takeoff/Launch Assist Mode
- Make sure that all your trims are centered
- Keep the Airplane stationary with low Throttle and Aileron/Elevator/Rudder sticks centered for at least 5 seconds before trying again.
