Ultra Stick 40 Aileron & Flap Setup?
Ihave a Futaba 7C 2.4. I have an Ultra Stick 40. My question is, how do I need to hook up each servo to my receiver in order to have full control over 4 control surfaces? Also transmitter configuration? I checked out Futaba's website for an answer. I found somewhat of an answer in the FAQ, but it didn't work. I don't know if I have limitations with my radio, or what. Help!!!

RE: Ultra Stick 40 Aileron & Flap Setup?
I am not going to be that much help, but I have an Ultra Stick 40 and it is a blast to fly, it flies slow and easy and is fun to do touch and gos- or you can speed it up and do almost any aerobatics you can think ofreally nice plane. I have mine set up on a Hitec Eclipse 7- I googled and found the guide somewhere, i also have a Jr 7202 i just got off of ebay and there are programming guides for that also. But I have had so much fun with my 40 size that I just got a mini and would like to get a 60 with a gas engine...Like I said i am not too much help but enjoy your plane...once you get it set up

RE: Ultra Stick 40 Aileron & Flap Setup?
Hey thanks for the helpgul reply!! Imessed around a bit yesterday, and found that Ican control the "crow" feature: full flaps, plus ailerons up, also with differential ailerons. Unfortunately I can't have full length ailerons. Ican live with that. I'm glad you sent me the links to the direct futaba information, I didn't realize that it was on here.
Again Many thanks
Again Many thanks

RE: Ultra Stick 40 Aileron & Flap Setup?
I don't think you will especially miss the full-span ailerons. It will roll quite quickly with just the partial ailerons, depending on your throw settings. It would be a shame to miss out on Crowe, since that's an Ultra Stick trademark. It's a shame that the 7C doesn't have more mixes available, or a glider mode like the 9C which makes setting up a 4-servo wing much easier. You might consider using a reversing y-connector on the flaps, allowing the flaps to work off a single channel. I think that might free up a mix or two for other purposes, and might also allow you to dial in varying amounts of flap rather than being stuck with all or nothing.
