I have finished a Lanier Extra 3.25. I have installed two servos for aileron
control.
I would like to use spoilerons ( upward ) to minimize tip stall on landings.
How can I do it whit this equipment?

( Futaba 8uap can not configure channel different from 1 and 6 for
ailerons )
( Hitec 5 channel 555 receiver )

Thanks and sorry for my english

Check your manual for the "airbrake" function on the 8U and set up a p-mix
with channel 6 as master, channel 5 as slave. That might work.

Morris,

Nope, as the Hitec 555 receiver only channels.

Your radio is your limiting factor here. If you had a Futaba 9C it'd
work, configured as GLIDE2 where it automatically sets up for what you
want. Ch 1=right aileron and ch 5=left aileron in that situation.

The 555 will not work separate ailerons - however check out the latest Hitec
HFS 05MG
5ch RX = this one does work with the 5th channel; operating as channel 6 on
any other RX - i.e. 5th channel will not work with the usual 5th channel on
a Flash 5X or other.
http://www.hitecrcd.com/
Port 5 is the 6th channel of the transmitter and can be used
for a second aileron servo, flaps, or flaperons. (Not compatible with
channel 5 on Flash 5 System X.)
Five channel single conversion FM operation.
Gold plated pins.
Ch. 1 - 4 & Ch. 6.
See also the latest Hitec 6 ch TX =

= Optic 6.

Both the 9C and the 8U allow channel 5 use for dual ailerons via a
special setting. The default is channel 7.
