Question on programming TX
 

Im interested in building the f-14 plans from parkjets.com, the model with the variable sweeping wings. Would there be some way to set up mixing that i could have ailerons when the wings are out and when i sweep the wings back the ailerons shut off and the tailerons kick in to fly it as a delta wing. I assume if its even possible its above the programablity of my dx6i, but if it were possible what would it take.

i just think it would be so cool to be able to fly like that.

Im also interested in putting together the su-37 also from parkjets. it has a thrust vectoring option, if any one is firmilar with it. As I stated I have a dx6i, he says it requires 7 channels to set it up how he has it. Could i set it up with 6 channels by just removing his "yaw thrust vectoring" which is accomplished by having both pusher probs on seperate channels so to yaw thrust vector it slows down changes the power to each motor to create the yaw. Im mainly interested in the roll and pitch vectoring. Would i be able to accomplish this on the dx6i.

It is possible but I don't know if the DX6 could do it.

YOu could do it on two switches:

1) Wings in and out
2) Ailerons go from low rate, zero when closed, to high rate - 100% response when open.

You would have to remember to flip them both and to time them right so the ailerons did not come on before the wings opened.

The alternative would be to mix the switches together so that when you flip the switch both things happen at the same time. There might be a timing issue as you would activate ailerons before the wings came out. So you might need some kind of delay device that would delay the ailerons from activating if they would be blocked when the wings were swept back.

Could create some control problems as the plane would change its controls mid flight. That could be very tricky to manage.
