G'day

Some of the previous posts have wrong info in them so be careful.

Most of the US files Mode 2. This has the right stick set up the same as a real aeroplane's joystick -

Right Stick Mode 2 - Aileron (left to right) and Elevator (back and forward).

Left Stick Mode 2 - Rudder (left to right) and Throttle (back and forward).

My club mostly flies Mode 2 but this is unusual in Australia. I fly Mode 1 as I learned in another club.

Left Stick Mode 1 - Rudder (left to right) and Elevator (back and forward)

Right Stick Mode 1 - Aileron (left to right) and Throttle (back and forward).

The normal elevator stick operation is so that if you want to give UP control, you move the stick towards the bottom of the radio though I have seen people fly the opposite way.

Also, Throttle is usually set up at minimum throttle at the bottom and maximum at the top but again I have heard of people who fly the opposite way.

To further confuse things there are Modes 3 and 4 which are mirror images of Modes 1 and 2 but I don't know which is which.

As Jaka I think said, if you only have rudder control and no ailerons, you use the aileron channel (right stick in both Mode 1 and Mode 2) for the rudder.

So to answer your question - for both Mode 1 and Mode 2, the ailerons are on the right stick.
