Default RE: Optic 6 & 2 elev servos

ORIGINAL: lectronx

Just picked up an Optic 6 for a P-51 with retracts and flaps, 2 ailrons, rudder, throttle, elevator. Thats 7 servos. World Models Instructions say 6-channel Radio. What's up? I don't see any way to Program ACGL to handle 7 servos. (I see 7 channel icons in the manual but can't see them on my DISPLAY..PROBABLY A MISPRINT??). I'm using a Supreme 8 Rx. Thanks from someone just jumping in the sport.
On a 6 channel radio, you have two choices.

both ailerons on on 1 channel leaving a channel for retracts.

Or

Wire your retract servo to your flaps and put on a switch that takes flaps to a preset position. Flaps down, retracts down. Flaps up, retracts up. Then you can have ailerons on two channels.

Can't think of any other way to handle it.

Hope that helps.
