is it possible to combine 2ch into 1?

[MaxSpeed]

i have an FS TH9X and was wondering if i could combine two channels into one (ailerons and rudder)? i guess what i am trying to get at is, operating both the ailerons and rudder by using the aileron switch? has anyone done this before?

thank you

Maybe this link might be of some help, the Turnigy9x is the same transmitter. You can also use a seperate mixer to do the same thing if its not possible to do it with the transmitter

Custom Firmware by Thus

Homepage for the custom firmware : http://code.google.com/p/th9x/

Direct link to manual : http://th9x.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/doc/th9x-en.pdf
btw: you should add the FlySky FS-TH9X in your headline - from web site to show that its the same transmitter as the turnigy 9x

thats great guys!! i was able to program it. now my last question is, is it possible to use an on/off (AUX) button to switch between the 2 mode? basically, i want to have control over all the channels, but once i flip the switch i get the mix in (combining 2 channels in 1)?

Glad you were able to program it I am not sure about the Aux button as a switch, there are a lot of Gurus here that should be able to answer your question, Take care and have fun, Chellie

Also join the FlySky group I started ... which caters more for the un-modified 9x and others of the FlySky range.

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Flysky_RC_radio/

Yes it is possible to switch the mixing on / off ... using usually the 3 position switch top right centre.

The 9x is far more capable of things than many realise - but it does have it's own quirky style of language ...

We also have the manuals links in GOOD english without watermarks etc.

is it possible to do it on a different switch? because i would like to program the 3 position switch for flaps.

- i will be joining the fly sky group. thanks

To be perfectly honest - I don't know ! Ask on the group - someone with far greater knowledge than I will answer.

Personally I use the top left centre knob to control flaps - full turned left is zero ... full turned right is 30 degrees down flap. It gives me proportional control of flaps instead of sudden steps as with the 3 position. By rolling my middle finger across the knob - I am able to go from full left to full right ... so I know what amount I use by position of my finger.

The other with the 3 position switch - it needs to be tricked to not default to OFF - ON - OFF ... why they did that I have no idea !

Thank you for your reply solentlife. i was wondering though, how did you program you flaps to function with the left knob?

The set-up is also on the group ... it's in the files section if I remember right ... this is Flaperons...

To have just flaps - then I would Y lead 2 servos of the Aux ch and set the knob to operate the servos. No need to go into Flaperon settings. (I'd have to check up on this later - as it's late at night here ... I'm in a different part of the house from the radio and it's time for me to sleep !! But I will get back on this ! ..)
