Futaba T8J Transmitter Mode Selection

Just thought I would share my Arducopter mode setup on my new Futaba T8J, as this can be a bit of a headache for newcomers.  The new T8J radio is my new favorite transmitter.  It offers a lot of features that was only offered on the 8FG, but at a fraction of the price.  It doesn't utilize FASST, rather S-FHSS.  With the settings pictured you can get all six flight modes on two toggles.  

First I set my three position toggle to switch C and the two position toggle to switch D, which is changed in the AUX-CHAN menu.  Next I changed my end points on channel five to those pictured below.  Lastly I setup the program mix (under P.MIX1-6 in the 8J menu).  Just dial in the values pictured below.  Maybe this will be of use.
