Hi

Will either of these two radios control reflex for slope soaring?

What about snap flap for doing slope turns?

Iam planning to built a slope racer.

I think when you roll into a turn then apply up elevator the flaps droop a small amount to provide extra lift to turn quicker. To do this it is mixed on a computor radio.

Commonly used in slope racing.

Cheers

I know the Eclipse 7 will do what you want cos I've got one.
I don't know about the other one.
