Crow braking on electric sailplane Futaba 10c

[chris vernon]

I have finished my Tangent electric glider (finally) and in the throws of setting everything up.

The crow braking is causing me grief and frustration on my futaba 10c

The model is set up as Glider 2A+2F

Ail 1 channel 1 Flp2 channel 5, Flp1 channel 6, Ail2 channel 7

The problem I have on this setup is channel 3 is assigned to airbrake (throttle stick) but I want this as the motor throttle.

Following the manual under condition/function the airbrake function can assigned to VRD or any other switch.

I have done this but the crow braking does not work only channel 3 moves when checked via the servo test function. I have set some movements up in the crow braking function. Putting the airbrake function back to the throttle stick does show movement of the correct control functions Aail/flap.

Any ideas ???

Secondly if I can assign the function to VRD how do I then make channel 3 work the throttle.

Am I making some assumptions that are not possible with the 10C ?? page 88 of the manual reads that I can do what I want

Thanks

Thanks for the informative answer !!!! I have already done that it does not tell you

I thought the idea of a forum was that fellow modellers could try help each other with constructive ideas

I will post the question on an American forum where people tend to be a bit more helpful

Chris,

people do tend to be helpful here.

I don;t have a 10c so cannot offer advice, however I am sure someone who does will be along shortly...
