Default Servo Slow question for Flaperons

Hey Guys,

Thanks for the info but I think I was not clear in my previous question about using servo slow feature. So I will try again.

I have an F-16 "or Several of them " and as you all know the F-16 only has one control surface "Excluding the leading edge flaps" that functions as both flaps and ailerons. I am successful in getting the flaperons to function correctly but when I activate the flaps using the three position flap switch on the upper left of side of the transmitter the flaps deploy very quickly; in under a second.

So in my mind I think hey I will take advantage of the servo slow feature and set the flaps to deploy fully in 4 seconds instead of 1. This in my opinion looks allot more scale and helps prevent pitch changes during flight. But to my surprise servo slow feature only works in slowing the physical servo plugged in to the flap channel for example" I think this is channel number 6" but since I have flaperon mixing my ailerons are also slowed down to transition fully over 4 seconds.

In short using flaperon mixing on an aircraft that does not have separate flaps and ailerons I wish I could set the flaps to take four seconds to transition fully and have the ailerons function at normal speed.

Anyway I hope there is some way to do this.

Thanks again for your responses.

David.
