9CAP mixing question
I have been flying with, and gradually learning about, the 9CAP transmitter. Recently, I built an Ultra Stick with ailerons and flaps. Each flap and aileron servo has its own channel. I cannot figure out how to get the three flight modes I want: 1. Ailerons act as ailerons and flaps act as flaps controlled by a slider. 2. Flaps act with the ailerons to provide full-span roll control. 3. Airbrake or crow where the flaps move opposite ailerons as brakes with near-idle throttle.
I suppose this can be done using a three position switch. Any help with this would be appreciated. Don

RE: 9CAP mixing question
Krysta, thank you for your prompt reply. I went to the page you recommended. Unfortunately, I was not sucessful in accomplishing my goal. I seemed to get pretty close, though! There seems to be some steps or information missing. I did discover how to sync the flaps with the ailerons or to not have them synced via switch position, but the crow or airbrake will not function with the current info. I will call you Monday. I am learning a lot about the 9CAP in the process. Thanks for you help, Don Loucks.
