It's really simple and there is no need to turn it on its side or anything. This will leave 2 spare stabilised channels which could be used for anything you want (but I'm guessing ailerons would be good).

The only thing to note is that each axis can only have one gain value, therefore the rudder and steering gain values will have to be the same, but this shouldn't cause a problem.
Very helpful thanks. Didn't realise you could stabilise the steering in that way. I'm about to pop one in my Habu 32. Will definitely include the steering.

This is my third Cortex. I've never adjusted any settings via PC and have been very happy to date. The Cortex's aren't moved between models. Would changing the servo setting to digital allow higher gain? (Two of the three models have digital servos)
