Default Differential aile.

Hi all;
I'm told of the advantage of having differential ailerons on my Cub. I have a Futaba 7C and was told that I may be able to do this with the radio. Has anyone have experience with this?
I guess, otherwise, I'll have to do it mechanically. Since the plane is already setup, looks like modifications would be in order.
Thanks!!

on any flat bottom wing you want more up deflection than down,real easy to do on the servo,even if you are using two.move the linkage from the 9 and 3 o'clock positions to the 11 and 2 o'clock position.as far as setting up the tx you need to indicate if you are using one or two servos

On page 43 in the 7C manual, differential is hidden in the FLAPERON setup menu.

If the 7c is like the 9c, make sure you use channel 7 for the other aileron, manual not too clear on this. channel 6 is reserved for flaps only, at least on the 9c anyway.

That is one aspect of the 9C I don't understand.
WHy Flaperons on CH6 and Diff on CH7. Why not have both functions on CH6 or CH7. IT should not make any difference to the software.
