Default question that need answering...

all this questions were written in my last thread, but the amount of question got so big that i needed to make a new thread.
i numbered the questions as you can see, so if you answer them, please do it like this: "answer to number 1: bla bla bla
or somthing like this so i will know what your talking about.
hope to solve this mysteries

1) flaps are used to make landing easier, because it gives more lift force to the aircraft on lower speeds,
so why doesn't planes like cap (which is big) or yak (which is also big) doesn't have flaps?

2) can i edit a plane and add flaps to it?

3) i looked into the controls part and i saw "expo". so i can put expo to the sticks, but not mid-flight, right?
dual rates is in mid-flight, so i can make the sticks less sensitive mid-flight,
or i can also assign expo to a button so when i push it all the sticks will because less sensitive...?

4) there are blank spaces in the controls section, when i assign a control in the left side there are lables like: "ailerons, engine 1, flaps left etc'" and there are places that theres nothing written, but you can assign a channel. why is that?

5) if i buy a trasmitter (i'm going to buy a hitec optic 6), and i'll buy a cable from you, so i can connect it to the computer,
can i used it to run my airplane 1? (so it replaces the gamecommander, ans the gamecommander because the 2nd?)

6) if i have a optic 6, and i'll program the trasmitter to do dual rates, will it work with AFPD?

Because they are aerobatic planes and are designed to land slow without flaps. You will not find flaps on these planes when you buy them to fly RC.

2) can i edit a plane and add flaps to it?

No, but you can program "flaperons" when you get a computer radio. This is something that you will learn later.

3) i looked into the controls part and i saw "expo". so i can put expo to the sticks, but not mid-flight, right?
dual rates is in mid-flight, so i can make the sticks less sensitive mid-flight,

Set Expo for ailerons and elevator only. Set it to 50, that will make the radio less sensitive.

4) there are blank spaces in the controls section, when i assign a control in the left side there are lables like: "ailerons, engine 1, flaps left etc'" and there are places that theres nothing written, but you can assign a channel. why is that?

Don't understand, take a screenshot.

5) if i buy a trasmitter (i'm going to buy a hitec optic 6), and i'll buy a cable from you, so i can connect it to the computer,
can i used it to run my airplane 1? (so it replaces the gamecommander, ans the gamecommander because the 2nd?)

Yes, you can get the SIMCOM and it will work with your radio. However you need to have the Commander plugged in to use it.

6) if i have a optic 6, and i'll program the trasmitter to do dual rates, will it work with AFPD?

Yes

I still don't know what you mean about your question.

The blank spots are there for hte modelrs to assign custom channels. You'll know when you need to use them.

i think he means why are there three blank spaces that dont have a function but are assigned for instance all the others say hook or brakes or flaps.
