Default RE: programming flaps on futaba

Dennis,

Yes, I now found the way from Futaba's FAQ page.
When I called Futaba in Japan, a technician answered me there is no
way by FF8 for my flap operation by toggle SW instead of the knob.
So, I used AirBrake function to lower the flap, but that function does
not utilize 100% of the servo angle, only 50%.
I bought 9Z recently since he said only 9Z can do it by trim offset and
changing SW function.
I had been interested in the servo delay function of 9Z as of that, so
what he said was not the only reason for me to buy 9Z, but I would not
buy 9Z if I had known FF8 can do that work.
I now found my FF8 can lower the flap by any toggle SW.
Thank you so much for your input any way.
This teaches me to read the instruction more carefully, I want Futaba
to make instructions more kindly though.
