RE: Feelin' dumb
Depends on your radio and whether its set for acro or glid or acro/glid. I have a futaba 9C transmitter. I am flying a Hangar 9 Arrow using a hitec 6 channel rx.
Here is what is hooked up on the rx...
chan 1 aileron servo (only 1 servo for the ailerons for this plane)
chan 2 elevator
chan 3 throttle
chan 4 rudder (I also have the other side of the servo arm connected to the front wheel for taxi'ing)
chan 5 not used (although if you have 2 aileron servos, the 2nd one plugs in here)
chan 6 rx battery
Like I said, it depends for ailerons whether your running two servos and whether the tx is setup for acro or glid.
Just make sure you test your controls first before actually flying it.
