Default RE: Bought Ultra Stick

Well, I wasnt suggesting one for the Ultra Stick, I was merely explaining what one was. I used one with my SS60 because I was using a Futaba 6XAS and full actual crow was near impossible with that radio without using one. You need to put the ailerons on channel 1 and 6 which leaves channel 5 for the flaps on that stinking knob it uses. I know you cannot have both crow and full span ailerons using that radio. It is possible with an Airtronics 6 channel whateveritwas but not the 6XAS. I dont remember all the details and have since upgraded to a Futaba 9C. The 6XAS has been assigned to slope duty.

Fubar-One - Unless I am wrong, this would limit the ability of the Ultrastick .If you use a reversing Y this will keep you from being able to mix the flaps on a switch to work as an extension of the ailerons for flaperons on this airplane. This is why I keep the flaps on a separate channel. The concept of the reversing Y makes good sense if you want to use less channels, but in doing so it limts what you can do. Always a trade off.
