Default F-16 Taileron Setup X9303

Wanna setup tailerons on the 9303. Anybody have a short version?

I don't have a 9303 but I would think "Delta" would be the short version.

Yes, you set it up as a delta would be, so left aileron would make the trailing edge of the right tail half go DOWN.
If when you try reversing the channels 2 and 3 one or other doe not go the correct way swap the servos around at the Rx

OK, so I have it set up on Delta and elevator and ail commands work correctly but ailerons are reversed. When I try to reverse it on the radio or switch the inputs on the rx it messes up the coupling - i.e. left and right become pitch on the tx, etc. [X(]
So the question of the hour is: how do I get the ailerons reversed without losing the rest of the setup?

Thanks in advance!

Like I said you change the servo plugged into Aileron to the elevator socket and vice versa

Dave,

I'm just missing something because the best I can get is both surfaces working right but the ailerons reversed - no matter what I do as far as switching the inputs or reversing on the tx. Sorry in advance if I am just being stupid!

Have you tried reading the manual? I found it on page A-13 see below.

Of course I read the manual.

Dave, thanks for your help. I started over with a different model memory slot and had NO PROBLEMS. I must have had some weird programming in there on accident that was keeping the tailerons from performing correctly? maybe a accidental flight mode? IDK, but all is well now!

Thanks again for your help Dave.

Great news...Sometimes it is best to re set the memory and start again!
