but this setup also applies to models with an additional flap
or spoiler servo in CH6.

Useful Control & Switch Information
Gear Switch controls receiver CH3
VR1 controls camber (flap motions)
VR2 controls receiver CH7 and sets DFL.T
CH7 switch Forward = F->A On, F->E On
GEAR switch Back = CROW Off,
Flt. Condition switch Back= A->F Off
Flt. Mode switch Back (“speed”)= E->F On, S.TM1
Flt. Mode switch Forward (“launch”) = S.TM2 On
