Honesty why 10x?
10X
I like the ease of programming, and like the shape and feel of the radio of the Multiplex.
I use consistently all 10 channels, and could use several more if I could get them.
Phantom
ailerons
rudder mixed to nosegear
throttle
elevator
nosegear steering on a seperate channel so it can be fine tuned
gyro gain adjustment
brakes
retracts
flaps
nose gear strut (operates and air valve for extending length of strut) mixed to throttle so that if I am over 1/2 throttle and gear is down it is activated.
I need another channel for my chute but will probably use the nosegear channel with a mechanical setup on the servo
I am using 4 or 5 mixes with it. I use servo slow feature on flaps, and speedbrakes usually. I use the landing mixes. I have used the wing type setups for flaperons, elevons, and quad flaps. I have used the v-tail setup as well. I also use the throttle curve to make my throttle response more linear to the actual thrust of my engines.
And the number one reason why I don't fly Futaba is that 15 years ago I used to fly Futaba and I crashed several planes due to radio problems. This I am sure is a non issue but when I changed I never went back.
