I forget the particulars of that radio but if there's an option for LINK make sure it's on.

That or look into setting it up as flapperon mixing, that links the trims. I love Futaba radios but JR's program for dual aileron and dual elevator servos sure is easier.

Your going to hate this answer but it cant be done, I purchased a 7c also before I learned it is much more limited in it capabilities than the 9c. Sub trim should work but obviously nothing you would use in flight. You may be able to use a syncronizer in flight.

Tripower - did you buy the earlier 72 MHz 7C or the new 2.4 GHz 7C. The 2.4 version does allow for dual elevator while the older does not.
Pg 45 of the manual tells how - Ailvator. Be sure to set the aileron portion (still discussed on pg 45) to zero in order to prevent elevator movement when ailerons are moved.
