Default RE: Spoiler and flaperons

Ahh, I'm not sure that is what you want on a fun fly. This is how it should work and how I have it set-up on my Sledge with an 8UAF.
The flaps should be linked to the elevator so that when you give it "up" elevator both ailerons should go down and when you give it "down" elevator both ailerons should go up. (about 50% of the max travel) This will give you tight loops and great waterfalls and flat spins (used most of the time) When you flip the switch to "spoilerons", up elevator gives you up ailerons, and down elevator gives you down ailerons. (good for things like harrier) You really want your flaperons/spoilerons linked to your elevator. I'm not sure a switch with full up/down is what you want.
