[ul][*] First thing I do is double check I have all the servos plugged into the correct receiver port. Nothing worse than moving the elevator stick and getting throttle response.[*] For a computer radio, I select a memory location and clear it out, then name the model.[*] Third thing I do is to adjust the proper direction of all the servos. You'll likely have to do this on the transmitter. Even non-computer radios have servo reversing.[*]Fourth task is to adjust the end points (total servo travel) and proper neutral via mechanical control linkage.[*]Next item is to set up high and dual rates. I consider this as a non-option.[*]Final item is to dial in expo and any special mixes. For trainer/sport models, this isn't required. For 3D airplanes, it's very difficult to fly without exponential
