Hi guys
I am building a 114" ziroli p38 lightning equipped with Hitech digital
servos and I'm now doing the wiring. I am using my Futaba 14sg and have 2 x R7008SB
I also have a Futaba MSA 10 to couple the 4 flap servos (maybe)
Controls:-
Left aileron Right aileron
Left throttle Right throttle
Left ignition Right ignition
Left rudder Right rudder
Left elevator Right elevator
Left flap inner Right flap inner
Left flap outer Right flap outer
Retract (sequencer)
Nose wheel


Given that the P38 lightning is a slightly unconventional layout and
doesn't lend itself to using a power board power supply.
What would be the ideal receiver connection layout?

Any insight you can share with me will be greatly appreciated

There isn't an "ideal" setup, nor is there a "correct" setup. Likely, the best way to set things up would be to have the right-hand side of the aircraft on one receiver and the left-hand side on the other receiver. One receiver would be in Mode A, the other in Mode C. Then configure the transmitter to put the desired functions on the channels listed. You can use two battery packs or a single large pack with a "Y" harness to power the receivers and servos.

Because you have more control surfaces and functions listed than you have channels available, you will need to carefully consider how you're going to allocate the channels. Obviously, some of the control surfaces will need to be combined to a single channel, like you're doing with the flaps.
