Default 9 Channel assignment in jet application...

Hello Jet community,

I'm looking forward building my brand new F-18F this winter,
now I try to make the best channel assignment with my
X9393 - 9channel transmitter for handling all the functions
within this model.

So my thoughts are:

I want to use the AR9100 receiver.

First of all I want to post how I'm planning to assign the channels:

Channel1: Throttle/Turbine
Channel2,5: Aileron (2 Servos)
Channel 3: Elevon (2 Servos)
Channel 4: Rudder (2 servos)
Channel 6: Gear (electronic valve)
Channel 7: Flaps (2 servos)
Channel 8: steerable nosewheel
Channel 9: Brake



so far, but now perhaps some issues that could occur with this
assignment ?

- In the future I would like to install a smoker - this would
mean, that I have to spend either one seperate channel for the
smoker pump, or I have to mix it with e.g.the Channel 9 (Brake)

So there is the possibility to mix the brake (servo mechanical valve) with
channel 3, the elevon function.
If I do so, are there any issues by using 3 servos on one channel - can
the receiver handle this - so all the signal cables from the servos are in
parallel and would get the signal from channel 3 elevon ?

I would be pleased if someone posts his experience in using a 9channel transmitter
in jet applications with brakes and retracting gear.

Best regards
