Hi guys, I posted this in the Radio's forum but I didn't get any replies, so I'm posting here as well:
Hi everyone! This is a question for Airtronics/Sanwa RD8000 System. I have a new Ultra Stick from Hangar 9 with quad flaps, and while I know this radio doesn't have the "Crow" function but I'm interested in knowing how do you guys have your setup, is there something interesting to do with 4 aileron servos and some of this system's mixers, flaperons or spoileron functions?

I believe you will need crow function to make it work correctly. A friend of mine had a plane with same feature and we could never get it to work correctly without that function

The RD8000 does have the CROW function. I've never had a need to use quad flaps, or even know how to use them but here's the info and you can go from there.
Goto "MSC". "BASIC" mode has to be off, Spoileron "SPOIR" has to be activated, then go down six keypresses for crow left aileron "CR-LA" or seven presses for crow right aileron "CR-RA"
EDIT:Page 53 in your RD8000 manual

Thanks for the reply, I also replied in the other forum to this, I was wondering if there's a way to do it like Futaba or JR where the inner flaps go up and the outer ones go down while keeping the ability to work as ailerons...
