When the servo trim screen appears, for your reference the servos will briefly move up and down once one after another in the given order CH1 to CH3 (CH7) so you can identify them easily. Trim each servo using the '''+''' and '''-''' buttons so that the servo horn forms an exact 90 degrees angle with the linkage rod. Then make the mechanical adjustment for the linkages as described above if necessary.
