setting up 6 different flight modes on a Spektrum DX7 using just one channel

These instructions explain how to set up a Spektrum DX7 transmitter for 6 different flight modes, using just the 3 position Flaps switch (in combination with the Rudder switch). This way you'll use just one channel for the flight modes and leave the Gear and Aux2 channel open ...

(note that you have to use…

Four modes switch for Futaba T6EX

The T6EX doesn't have a 3 position switch channel, so I had to combine channel 5 and 6 to get four modes. I made it work with a pot that has double terminals for each knob position, so that way there is always 2 pins to connect cables to for a single position.

 

Think of this knob as a bridge between same terminals: A to A, B to B, etc, closing the circuit to ground.

Channel 6 is connected to a terminal A and a terminal B from the opposite side.

Channel 5 is…

5 flying modes with a Spektrum DX6i

 

This is my little help to those who want to fly 5 modes with their 6 Channel TX.

Unfortunately the DX6i has only 2 Pos Switches. If it had a 3 pos on the 6th channel, the we could use 6 modes.

 

But anyway this is How I did it:

 

In the SetUp menu go to MIX1 and set:

GEAR --> GEAR ACT

RATE D -50% U 0%

SW ELE D/R

 

Then go to MIX2 and set:

GEAR --> GEAR ACT

RATE D -100% U 0%

SW…

Configure 6 flight modes for Futaba T7CP

I bought a cheap RC Futaba T7CP on ebay, but I spent 3 days in order to understand the right configurations of switches to enable 6 flight modes.

Here, my solution. Hope useful for the community.

(I used some hints from other blogs)



1. I used SWE and SWA. SWE is a 3-position switch. while SWA is on the left and it is a 2-position switch

2. You have to set End Point, SubTrim and RT in MIX. First, set the ENDPOINT for CH5 to be 50%(UP) and 52%(DOWN). You can tune…
