Good afternoon everyone!

I'm trying to setup the above combo on a Mars 480. The following is the setup I currently have:

B - PITCH
6 - EMPTY
5 - EMPTY
4 - GYRO
3 - ESC
2 - AILE
1 - ELEV

I know 5 is used with gyros but I thought 6 was supposed to be used for servo arms. I had PITCH plugged into it and when the battery was plugged in it moved it all the way down and you couldn't move it. So, I put it into B and it seems to be correct.

On the EK2-0406A TX I have the switches behind the batteries set for CCPM 2 - on 1 - off like it should be.

The problem I'm having is my mixing isn't correct.

When I push the stick right both servos move up and when I push the stick left both servos move down. (the up down movement is correct with the other servo)

I tried reversing the servos on the TX and no difference unless I reverse both of them. Then when I push the stick right both servos move down and when i push the stick left both servos move up.

Does anyone have a clue to what I have setup wrong?

Sorry about the long winded post, I just wanted to make sure it was descriptive enough.

Thanks in advance! I can't wait to get this hilo in the air. :D

Should I post this in another forum on here? Is this not the correct place for it? :(

Be patient. Your setup is out of the ordinary, so there probably won't be many who will have the exact same setup. Also, this is a world wide forum, so anytime you post something, at least half of the possible respondents are probably asleep. Just allow some time for that one or two modelers who can help to see your post.

I figured as much, I was just making sure it was the correct location on the forums for it. :D

I'll be going soon to get another RX and TX and try that. I'm thinking that the RX will work but the TX is pretty much setup for the hilo that it comes with. If the new equipment works I'll update this thread so people don't waste their time with it.

Well I just got a Hitec Optic 6 TX and Electron 6 RX. I'll be setting it up during lunch today. I shouldn't have any problems with this combo.
