DLG - Pro template for F3K
DLG is a competition-ready template for F3K discus launch gliders with 4 servos. It's based on the popular OpenTX version.
At a glance:
- Easy setup for different tx's
- In flight adjustment of thermal camber and aileron diff
- Auto suppression of brakes for quick turnarounds and safe zoom exit
- Brake-aware adaptive trim for perfect landings
- Launch height callout (optional, requires vario rx)
- Setup guide and programming reference
- Sound files in English and Italian.
The template includes a special 'CAL' mode for precise matching of control surface travels.
