FUTABA 12FG CONFIGURATION
Hello.
I go to install a plane carrying 2 servos on each aileron, 2 servos on each elevator, 2 servos on rudder, and 1 for engine. Total 11 servos.
I thought to connect the servos in separate channels (PCM G3-mode) Ailvator / 2 Ail.
Is it correct? I would appreciate their views.
Thank you very much.

RE: FUTABA 12FG CONFIGURATION
When you start to set up the radio for a new plane, you select the wing type. Select the one for 4 servos. Then select the tail type, i'm not sure there is an automatic setup for four elevator servos or not, that might take a little more doing.
It's not well explained in the manual but it is really easy. When you go to "Functions" you can make anything what you want it to be.
You can go to functions, and make the first channel aileron simply by putting the cursor on channel one, press the button that also turns and dial it to aileron. Go to channel two and turn it to aileron, it will show up as aileron2, etc..
The transmitter sends four packets at a time, so put all your ailerons in the first four channels, all your elevators in the next four, etc..
This sounds complicated, but it's very easy. Once you start working your way around the transmitter, you'll find it's very simple. Most people don't realize that and try to do complicated things. This radio is totally versatile.
Hope this helps,
