Default multi prop control

Hi,
I am a FG12 owner. I will use multiprop function of my Radio on a twin engine airplane.
Just my own wonder, could it be possible to control motors seperatelty and set an mix with Rudder for one engine fly training?
Thanks

You don't need the multiprop function to do what you want. The system can easily control two engines with the programming it already has. You need to use mixers, and can control either or both engines from the throttle stick. You have to write down exactly how you want the controls to function, and then make a programming flow chart...that will make it easy to visualize what you need to do.

Hi Thanks for reply
I want to control both engine with throttle channel which is easy up to here.
But I want to be able to control each motor separately during flight. This can me with a knob switch. For example when I turn full left the know, left engine will run but right engine will stop. When it is in the middle both motor must run at same power.

I want to do that to make exercise for preparing my self to one death engine flights.

Thanks
Regards
