Default ff9 ????

Hi,

After finaly getting to grips with moving from a t7cp to a t9cp super I have 1 problem with setting up my h9 spitfire which is

channel

1 right aileron
2 elevator
3 throttle
4 rudder
5 landing gear
6 flaps
7 left aileron

I have put the flaps on switch c and would like to have no movment in the 1st postion, 1/2 inch in the 2nd and 1 inch in third postion.

any ideas?

Thanks.

Beef,

During the week Bax / Krysta would jump right on this. But since its the weekend and you may be anxious to fly, try this quick solution using mixes:

FIRST MIX

PROG.MIX1 page 2/2
MIX->ON
MAS->OFST
SLV->6:FLAP
LINK->OFF

SW->C
POSI->CENTER

PROG.MIX1 page 1/2
(ON or OFF, depending on current SW-C position)
(OFST->FLAP)

RATE->30% This is a guess for the mid position

END END (to escape to main screen)
===========================================

SECOND MIX

PROG.MIX2 page 2/2
MIX->ON
MAS->OFST
SLV->6:FLAP
LINK->OFF

SW->C
POSI->DOWN

PROG.MIX2 page 1/2
(ON or OFF, depending on current SW-C position)
(OFST->FLAP)

RATE->80% This is a guess for the full position

END END (to escape to main screen)

I checked this in the Servo Monitor and it works reasonably. REMEMBER, you may have to set the percentages to negative values, or do a servo reverse depending on the movement of the flaps during test.

Also, note the the VR(A) dial can also "tune" the flaps in the default setup, but you can deactive that by going to AUX-CH option in the BASIC(ACRO) section and setting CH6->NULL.

Enjoy your Futaba 9CAP Super. It is a fantastic radio!

Best Regards... Roger Parrett / Dayton, OH

I have two 9c and use one as a buddy box for my oher one ha has a speckum module. I have had 3 near disasters, one fatal that I initially though was either battery problems or a problem with he Rx. I reurned he rx to horizon, who could no find a fault. Is there problems with this set up as I have an early module.

Programming

When I set up the slave, I cannot get electric motor off. It works perfectly on master. Also I get shift errors of about 15% of he slave from the master. he slave has not been used, since been serviced by Ripmax ( UK dealer support)

hi,

After 7 1/2 hours of trying to get it to work the mix setup you suggested worked in about 20 mins.

Thanks for your help. Looking forward to fly this as I`ve been putting this off since I got the t9cp (3 months ago).
