Default Weird 9C dual aileron problem

I was programming a new plane with one servo on each aileron. Under parameters, I used the "Ch 6 or 7" option for AIL2. However, I observed that the channel 6 servo is at a fixed position (it has a holding torque) when the aileron stick is moved. When I swapped the Ch 1 and 6 connector to the receiver, the reversed phenomenon was observed on the other servo.

When I loaded the program for an older plane, both servos worked. Out of curiosity, I loaded other "blank" programs in my memory, including that from my Campac, and the same problem was seen, i.e. the second aileron servo is fixed.

In order to continue with my new model setup, I had to copy my old plane program to the new model memory, and reprogram all parameters. This worked.

What is happening here ? Thx

Did you enable flaperons? You need to do that before the second servo (aileron) will work.
