Eclipse 7 - moving channel 3 assignment
I am helping a friend set-up a scale sailplane. He has been looking at an Eclipse 7 as an upgrade from his Futaba 6XAS.
here is what he wants to do.
R Aileron 1
Elevator 2
Tow release - 3 (assigned to a switch)
throttle stick ( used to contol landing mixes)
Rudder 4
R Flap 5
L Flap 6
L Aileron 7
Is this set-up possible with the Eclispe 7? If not, can you suggest an alternative set-up?
If so, how can I take channel 3 off the throttle stick and assign channel 3 to a switch to operate the tow release? We have enough channels, if we can move 3 to a switch.
Thanks!

RE: Eclipse 7 - moving channel 3 assignment
On the Eclipse the assignments will be as follows:
channel 1- right aileron
chennel 2- elevator
channel 3- tow release (controlled by elevator D/R switch)
channel 4- rudder
channel 5- left aileron
channel 6- right flap
channel 7- left flap
(channels 6 and 7 are controlled by what would normally be the throttle stick for landing or crow function on a glider)
