delta wing mixing setup

[mattydred]

im going to try and setup my f-27c stryker. its a delta wing type plane and im going to have to setup some aileron and elevator mixing in my ff7 tx as the plane only uses 2 servos to fly which is probably the same as a zagi flying wing etc.

normally ch1 is aileron and ch2 is elevator

will it matter which wing servo plugs into which channel and is there anything else i should know about this type of plane/setup

cheers

Matty,

I have a lot of experience with flying wings, basically, no, it doesn't matter, one servo plugs into (Futaba) Rx Ch1 and the other servo into Ch2.

I'm one of the [URL="http://www.wingbat.co.uk"]www.wingbat.co.uk[/URL] team.

You can use the FF7 computer to select 'elevon' mixing, then reverse servo direction as necessary, you can also reverse the function, such as 'aileron' and 'elevator' to reverse those functions (ie, both servo's), not necessarily one servo. Its quite hard to explain, but if you need more help just PM me your phone number and I can call and explain.

just set the radio to elevon mixing in the menu and then move the servo leads till they go the way you want them to ...

Main thing with most wings is not having too much elevator, especially at first. My Stryker was a pussycat though compared to some high performance ones I had ;)
