Default Futaba 9C Programming

I am having difficullty programming my 9C for flaps and Crow. I read the manual, not much help. The basic problem with the flaps is that I need down elevator as well. We are talking about a 120 UltraStick Lite. I have slected Flaperons so I can adjust each aileron servo. I have assigned switch H for flaps. I have selected AirBrake which is where I understand I should be to add down elevator. I put in -25 for the elevator with the flap switch activated....I get no movement of the elevator at all. Any help beyond the manual would be great.

See airplane faq #29 & 30 on this page. It has other tips for you as well. Programming an Ultra Stick is a common question.

Mutiple mixes have a tendency to fight each other

If you're going to use the Airbrake function, you don't need the flaperon (1/6 mix) active, only use that if all you want is flaps without Elevator. You can set an additional mix to mix flap/ele, but that would mean using another switch function, and again they may fight each other, I'm not sure without testing.

try this
INH the Flaperon mix and use Ail Diff (1,7) to operate the 2 aileron servos and just set your flap offsets via Ail1, Ail2, Ele in the Airbrake menu, LMK if that works better

good luck

set the airplane up as a glider then you can do everything you want. Also search for member Geardaddys as he posted a complete programming step by step for the 9c super
