Default JR 10X programming question.

I'm experiencing some (hopefully temporary) brain death right now, so am looking for a possible answer from someone who still has one...

This is not really a jet-specific question, but I'm going to ask it here to begin with, as I fell that you jet guys are more likely to understand what I'm trying to do, as well as know how to do it ...

For my Super Bandit, using a 10X TX, I have the speedbrakes on Aux2. The 3 position switch on the top right hand side of the TX correctly sets the speedbrake to up / half / full, and the servo movement is slowed down.

Now, what I wanted to additionally do is have the snap-roll button cause the speedbrake to go to full. This will allow me to "blip" the speedbrake for small corrections, if it is not already fully down. The fact that the servo is slowed makes this work quite well in that a short blip gets only partial travel in addition to short duration.

Right now, this only partially works. It is just fine if I have the 3 position switch in the up position, then pressing the snap roll button does move the speedbrake. However, if the speedbrake is in the mid position already due to the aux2 switch being in the mid position, the snap roll button does not do anything - I'd like it to still move the speedbrake up to it's "full" position.

What am I overlooking ?

Thanks in advance for any & all help.
