Default Futaba 7C CAP

I bought this system for it's advertised ease of use so I guess it's my lack of comprehension that has me stymied on programming the thing.

I simply cannot get the flaperons to function in the manner I want. I can get one flap to work, one aileron the deflect, both flaps to deploy as speed brakes and ailerons to act normally....

What I cannot do is to get the ailerons to act as both flaps and as ailerons and to trim each individual aileron servo to neutral.

2nd servo is on Ch 6 as directed. When I deploy flaps, the right aileron is not trimmed to the same angle of deflection as the left. In flight this obviously results in skewered flight characteristics. Try as I might, I cannot get this combination figured out. I've read, reread and recharged the transmitter half a dozen cycles attempting to get this function, or rather combination of functions, figured out.

Can someone please walk me through the programming process from transmitter power-on to flight-time?

Surely I'm not the only one with this challenge, am I?

Help!
