Is it possible to program Both Flaperona and Elevon mixes
Hi,

Re: Is it possible to program Both Flaperona and Elevon mixe
Yes. This is an easy mix to achieve.
Slope Soaring, FPV, and pretty much anything 'high tech'

Re: Is it possible to program Both Flaperona and Elevon mixe
Can you clarify the exact mix requirements.
I am assuming the following:
2 x servos in wing
2 x servos in elevator
I take it you want each half of the aileron to work in unison with the aileron?

Re: Is it possible to program Both Flaperona and Elevon mixe
i have this set up.
channel 1 elevator 1 , Y cable to aileron 1
channel 2 elevator 2
channel 3 throttle
Channel 4 rudder
Channel 5 gear
Channel 7 Aux to Aileron 2
I'd like to fly with both flaperon and elevon at same time, and have flaperon programmed to the 3 position switch.
I also have thrust vectoring. Is it possible to program that into a switch?

Re: Is it possible to program Both Flaperona and Elevon mixe
Right.
First off - you may be better off loosing the Y cable. It will possible complicate things.
Can you clarify exactly what you mean by Flaperona & Elevon
e.g.
Flaperon:
Do you what the ability for the flaps to go down when you pull up on the elevator? (to tighten the loops)
Do you want ailerons to drop as an option to give you flaps
Elevon:
Do you want each side of the elevator to operate as slaves to the ailerons to increase roll?
There are loads of ways to achieve this - just want to make sure you have the specific requirements outlined. That will help build a suitable mix.
Have you done any programming beyond basic 4 channel before? If not it is worth looking at this thread.
viewtopic.php?f=35&t=148
There are also a number of pre-built example mixes here
viewforum.php?f=38
Some of them already apply to what you want - but will need customizing to match your channel orders and exact requirements of your model.

Re: Is it possible to program Both Flaperona and Elevon mixe
I want the elevators to work in conjunction with the ailerons, for faster roll.
Also, I want to ailerons to work as flaps for landings.
Also. How do i use Aux channel 8 and 9 when programming only allows for one Aux option.

Re: Is it possible to program Both Flaperona and Elevon mixe
basically.. i want elevon to work in conjunction with ailerons, and flap function for ailerons for landings..
can't figure how to do that w/o activating the elevons when i deploy flaps.

Why don't you use the 3 position switch. Id0 Id1 id2
Essentially using three flight modes?

I think you can even use different trim settings for the flight modes.. someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Re: Is it possible to program Both Flaperona and Elevon mixe
How about this.
channel 1 elevator 1
channel 2 elevator 2
channel 3 throttle
channel 4 rudder
channel 5 gyro for programming to 3 position switch
channel 6 gear
Channel 7 aux aileron 1
Channel 8 aux aileron 2
Any way to acheive my mix this this way??
and alls this on the base firmware.

Re: Is it possible to program Both Flaperona and Elevon mixe
Yes. Quite possible.
Can you clarify the exact requirements as per my previous post - and I will then make you a basic eePe file you can then modify to suit your model.

If they mean stock 9x firmware, that might be more difficult to figure out.and alls this on the base firmware.

Re: Is it possible to program Both Flaperona and Elevon mixe
I suspect sushifly may be using the stock firmware - hence some of the confusion at the questions being asked.
Sushifly if you are still watching this thread. Are you definitely running er9x or similar as your firmware?

Rob,
Could you post the template that sushifly was looking for? I'm using ER9X firmware and that mix is exactly what I'm after!
Got it, never mind Rob.
