Sub-trim to get the servo arms at 90deg for centre stick, TrvAdj to sort out CCPM interactions as per Bob's video.

i think travel adjust means to decide travel range for servos. and sub trim is to level swash.

For the swash servos, use sub-trim to get the arms at 90deg, adjust linkage lengths from servos to swash to level the swash and get zero degrees pitch at mid-stick, adjust the linkages from the swash up to get the head setup rigth at mid-stick and then if needed, use travel-adj to remove CCPM interactions at high and low stick positions.

Subtrim - adjust the center or neutral position of the servo.
Travel Adjust - adjusts the full throw end points of the servo or how far it moves from center. And it can adjust each direction separately.
