Second mixer on a 3 v.switch DS 16 Jeti

[Mikko]

Hello,
I'm not able to create a second mixer on a 3 ways switch.(SE)
Se switch as follow :
-pos. 1 - elektro motor o%
-pos.2 (central - motor 40 % + a mixer that move elevator - 18%
-pos.3 - motor 100 %
All these points with relative .waw file, no problem !
But when I try to create a second "free mixer" on Se switch in pos.3 to add elevator - 27% ( number to be verified in flight) seems to be impossible.
Probably on a 3 ways switch it's not possible? or there is some special procedure?

To solve by a short way I tried also to create a Flight Phase "MOT 100%" in which the elevator trim is positioned as requested at - 27%
But it's not possible to use Se to operate the flight mode. Why ? because a mixer already exist ??

Thanks a lot for your kind help, I know there are specialist in this forum. Sorry if I'm not able to write in german. Your answer also in german, I understand
partially and with the help of google translator will be fine for me.

Good flight and happy landings !!!

Hi,

you must not use a mixer for this delete please. Then in flightmode Moter 100 % (= full power) go in menue

- Fine Tuning

and here to menue Flight Mode trim and do the seeting for elevator down

Ready

hello Wessels,
so you mean delete mixer.
Using Se switch create 3 different flight phases as follow :

phase 1 = pos.1 = motor o% ( let's say standard phase)

phase 2= pos.2 = motor 40% and elevator - 18% ( these values in the flight phase trimmung)

phase 3 = pos.3 = motor 100% and elevatoe - 27% ( these values in the flight trimmung)

Tomorrow I will try this, but I'm not so sure now. Problem is the 3 ways shalter is acting in my opinion as an of-off-on switch ::::: you can not reverse the control
in total ( pos. 1 x / pos.2 v / pos.3 x )

I will try tomorrow and report back to you. Danke, schlaf gut!

Thanks, it's running smoothly !
In practice Se is the stick of motor with 3 pos. 0-40-100% - nothing change here.
Then 3 mixers : standard = 0% motor + no elevator
mot 40 %= 40% motor + (-) 18 % elevator
mot 100% - 100 % motor +(-) 30 % elevator
Perfect, danke !

During the night I discover a more complicated problem. Having already in this sailplane 3 flight phases ( struck,dermic and speed) and now adding 3 flight phases for motor 0%- 40% and 100 %, the number of phases explodes....... for each base flight phase you must create a second set of phases for the 3 position of the motor.
If you are in a speed phase and for some reasons you need immediately to use motor...... you can't switch the phase and then the motor, you can risk to have the sailplane at 400 meters down in the slope.........
So I asked this question on the Jeti forum and I obtained a very precise and technical answer ( very appreciated!!!) from Harald.
I think there is no problem to share this with all you, just in case of need.
With this system motor is running in every flight phase.(numbers are related to my personal case regarding elevator trim related to gas/throttle curve)
I must try before this evening, but I've made a table for future use ( follow yellow number as procedure sequence)
