Dual Rates on Futaba 8FG

[John Botomley]

Programming my first model in a new-to-me 8FG.

Model has 2 servo aileron operation - sorted the correct operation of ailerons using channels #1 & 6 on a 617 Rx.

Trying to sort dual rates out - two problems

1) how to assign separate switches for elevator and aileron dual rates? Following the usual confusing Jenglish instruction manual produces odd results

2) how to set up dual rates for channel #6?

[Frank Skilbeck]

John, not sure how you assign the switches on an 8fg to dual rates, but once done then the aileron dual rate will apply to the aileron control input so both 1 & 6 are changed simultaneously.

I'll close this off because the confusion was my fault.

I needed to have selected the aileron configuration much earlier in the process of setting up an aircraft - i.e. 1-Aileron, 2-aileron, etc..

Once done everything then works as it should - I was trying to mix channels unnecessarily!
