Default Caluris- setting up crow?

I have a JR X-347 radio and want to add crow to my electrified Caluris glider. In the olden days BE (before electric) it was simple to add crow using the throttle stick to mix in crow. Now that I have the motor on the throttle stick I cannot figure out how to accomplish the mix. Can anyone help????

There's a few things you can do. Set the throttle up on a switch. on or off.

Or set the crow up on a knob above your left gimble.

Also, a lot of people are putting crow on a toggle so you just flip it and guide the plane in.

It's all about your style and what you prefer.

I'm a rare breed myself, I like to use a round knob above the left gimle and move my index finger on the knob up and down while using my thumb on the gimble for rudder. Extremely weird and rare but its what I'm used to so works for me.

I don't mind placing crow on the flap knob but can't figure out how to mix in ailerons,flaps, and elevator especially when ailerons need to work in the same direction???

Don't know if this will help or just confuse matters, but it does relate to a JR radio: http://www.vvsss.com/xp8103/
