RE: HELP PROGRAMMABLE MIXERS 6XAs/T6XA
that radio isn't really capable of doing that mix. it uses up all your mixes, doesn't adjust trim for both elevators, and also relies on you NEVER changing the position of one switch. if you do, good bye elevator control!
check futabarc.com if you still want to know how to do it, it is fully explained there.

Doesn't this radio use channel 2>6 for the function that you want. I believe that wilkl work as long as you leave the flap seeting to zero and reverse the cahnnel that's going oppisite the proper direction. (ie: up elevator one goes don, the other up. Reverse the down evlevator). If all else fails, call Hobby Services.

incase anyone else is wondering, here is the link...

here is futaba's angle on doing this...
While this is possible, as briefly described in the 6X manual, it is not ideal. This entry level computer radio cannot offer you trim support from a mix, so using the trimmer on your radio would trim only the servo, for example, on channel 2, not that on channel 6, which would be a real problem. Also, the elevator dual rate switch MUST be on at all times or the mix is turned off and your model will, very likely, crash.
