Hi, I have a JR 10SX radio and I have been trying to dial in everything for a full house ailplane.I cannot get the flaps to work toghether with the ailerons.
The radio itself does not have a specific sailplane program but I have 8 free mixes of which 4(i think) are multipoint.When I try tolower the whole trailing edge the flaps go down and the ailerons still move in oposite directions.
Also, I would like to know if this can be done with the 10SX.Or am I just on a wild goose chace trying to make it work?

Go to http://www.lachowski.com/

Scroll down to the 10X for six servos.
The SX is not exactly the same as the X, but the differences will not cause a problem.

Mike is also very good about answering questions!
He spent half a contest getting me straightened out about programming my first 10S ... since then, it has been a breeze.

weeeeeee
so it can be done after all.I got a good deal on this radio from somebody I know and when I saw there were no sailplane specific mixes I was afraid I wouldn't be able to use it for a full house sailplane.

Later Edit:Thanks a lot for the link.It's exactly what I was looking for.I found a site that explained something about the 10X sailplane programing but the link you gave me is much more detailed and I find it much more easy to understand.

Btw, can you get all the rates on only one switch?it seems kind of awkward to flip 3 switches to go to a different set of rates.

CT,
Also, Jim Bacus has done this for a long time, so it is very doable.

when read the article I found out that you have to mix gear->aux1 to get both ailerons to move with the flaps.When I tried setting up everything on my one I used ail instead of gear and I had flaps moving down and ailerons moving oposite ways when pulling the throttle stick down :eek:
I'll print everything and set it up.I'll just have to figure out how to do the launch flaps as I don't have the flap system menu.
