AR7000 channel assignments

Getting ready to program my "Spekrumized" Futaba 9C for the mini Ultrastick (my intent is to duplicate the "Quad Flap" model I have on Realflight 3.5). Using an AR7000, trying to determine what the channel assignments are on it as opposed to a more "normal" 1-7 that the Futaba programming instructions use.
What channels are Gear, Aux 1, Aux 2 and Aux 3 "assigned" to?
BTW - if anyone has programmed a MUS with this combination - I'll take all the help I can get

Typically JR ( what Spektrum sets are based on ) use the following:-
1 - Throttle
2 - Aileron
3 - Elevator
4 - Rudder
5 - Gear
6 - Aux 1
7 - Aux2
etc
etc
But as you are using a Futaba system, it will follow the Futaba scheme, its the Transmitter that sets the sequence and not the receiver.
Interesting point.... as Futaba don't use channel 1 as the throttle ( I think they use channel 3 ) does the Spektrum failsafe still cause Channel 1 to go low ??

The answer is....I think so 
I've never had a plane go into failsafe - but always make sure the throttle is set to low when I pull the binding plug.
yep - Futaba uses Channel 3 for throttle - but it "talks" to CH1 on the RX without me doing anything (Keebler Elves)
