Default Elevons and futaba 6EXA troubles

Just built a PBF and having problems programming my elevon mix.

I activate elevon mixing, and things are all reversed. Here is what I have....

Right wing on chan 1. Left wing on chan 2.

with chan 1 and chan 2 forward, a right bank gives me right down, left up and up elevator gives me up, and down down. (ailerons are reversed)

with chan 1 reversed and chan 2 forward, a right bank gives me up elevator, left bank gives me down elevator, down gives me right wing down, left up.

With chan 1 foraward and chan 2 reversed, a right bank gives me down elevator, left bank give me up elevator, down gives me right wing up, left down

with chan 1 reversed and chan 2 reversed, a right bank give me right wing up, left down, up elevator gives me down, and down gives me up.

As you can see, I have tried every combination of reversed and forward, and cant get the right mix... ARG

Any help here?

after actually writing all this down, I had a thought... put right wing on chan 2 and left on chan 1... with both chan 1 and 2 reversed, got the right results
