Radio System FAQ
How can I set up V-Tail mixing and still have a steerable nosewheel that does NOT respond to the elevator input?
To do this, you will need to use 2 mixes and channels 1-4 and 6. Plug the nose gear steering servo into channel 6, and all other hook ups as normal, and program the radio for V-tail. Note: If you want the channel 6 knob to remain active as a steering trim, do not do the second mix listed below.
