Default RE: Futaba 7C CAP

I like the concept of 7 channels because the fewer channels the faster your servos are updated. the problem is there are a few quirks about this radio that piss the hell out of me. The number one being the inability to trim the slave channel. ie there is no premix for dual elevator so you'd have to use a free mix and you can't trim the other servo with the trim tab. This is a feature on the 9 channel. So if I'd of known that in the first place I'd of bought the 9 channel in the first place. for 40-60 sized stuff were multi servo are not needed on main flight functions it's a great radio and more than likley all you'll ever need. but if you need complicated mixes like my single float viper were I've got a 3 way mix each servo doing it's own thing, it has a v-tail mix then an independant water rudder, it would be impossible on the 7 channel becuase the programming isn't available
