Hi, I have a Futaba 8fgs and I would like to set up a three way switch to control three positions of my gimbal; straight ahead, angled down and straight down.

At present I have my LD set up to control it which I would also like to keep as well as assigning switch SG on channel 9 Aux3 to control the three positions.

i am new to this and find the manual extremely unhelpful; my success in setting up my radio to control my Hexacopter has more to do with YouTube videos than the manual. So I would be very grateful for any help to help me achieve what I want to do.

We don't know what you mean when you m ention setting a switch to control three positions of the gimbal. Which gimbal are you asking about? The right or left one? The transmitter has the two gimbals and we're not sure what you're trying to do with them. You cannot use a switch to position the gimbals.
