Want flaperons on your airplane? Me too! In this video I'll show you how I set up two-position flaperons on the Flysky FS-i6X radio and FS-iA6B receiver.
It's a bit of a process, but I think the end result is pretty sweet. (If you know of a simpler way, please let us know!)
FS-i6X: amzn.to/2W2CfNH
In case you don't need the step-by-step version, I've written down the key info below (let me know if you find something that doesn't make sense!):
*******FS-i6X FLAPERONS SETUP GUIDE:********
👉 Remove propeller(s)
👉 Bind tx/rx (if not already done)
👉 Plug servo into Ch1
👉 Plug other servo into Ch5 (or whichever open servo channel you want to use. For this example I'm using channel 5) (my servos are each pointing out away from the fuselage)
👉 Reverse Ch1 SERVO as needed to achieve normal aileron movement for that servo. (roll right, control surface goes up) HOLD CANCEL TO SAVE.
👉 Turn on Aux Channels (in system settings menu) . HOLD CANCEL TO SAVE.
👉 Set Ch7 (AUX 7) to SW C (the 3-position switch). HOLD CANCEL TO SAVE.
👉 Make sure Ch5 SOURCE is set to NONE (because that's the channel for the servo)
👉 👉 Set MIX 1 (Ch1 controls ch5) (this mix is to make the servos function as normal ailerons)
Master: Ch1
Slave: Ch5
Pos. Mix: -100%
Neg. Mix -100%
Offset: 0%
👉 👉 Set MIX 2 (Ch 7 Controls Ch1)
Master: Ch7
Slave: Ch1
Pos. Mix: -40%
Neg. Mix: -40%
Offset: -15%
👉 👉 Set MIX 3 (Ch7 controls Ch5)
Master: Ch7
Slave: Ch5
Pos. Mix: -40%
Neg. Mix: -40%
Offset: -15%
👉 Hold CANCEL to SAVE
👉 Check for correct movement
👉 Adjust percentages as needed to make physical aileron deflection and neutral positions match each other
👉 Done
👉 Set up other control surfaces, failsafe, throttle hold, etc. as needed.
👌

Good work Adam, your videos are just awesome. Just purchased one of these to complete an Avios Grand Tundra setup, and your videos show the sheer capability and versatility of this beginners TX. Have not flown models for quite a few years and getting back into it, and have been worried about all of the hours, days or weeks likely spent on programming it. Your videos mean It'll spend more time in the air and less on the ground, keep it up man 😎

These are also good for sailplanes by having the ailerons reflexed to reduce drag, and then lowered to add camber and increase lift. I think you might have helped me to figure crow setting for flaps and ailerons.

@@dkh10 No issues with mine. Have you checked the End Points setting in the Functions Setup menu to see if the end points are correct (mine are at 100% for all channels). Also, check the Mixes setting for the mix on the flaperon master / slave channels (I have both the Pos. mix and Neg. mix at -100%). You could also check that the Subtrim settings for the flaperon channels are entered

Great video, Adam. What you’re working with on a flying wing is elevon control. That is, mixed elevator and aileron. Flaperon control applies to conventional airplane and sailplane wings for wing camber changes. 👍🏻😉

YEs, that's a good point. I was just using a flying wing as an example of a normal aircraft wing (I didn't have any true aileron airplanes at the time).

Excellent info, i thought this would be configurable / supported on the i6X, with 1 servo per side / flaperon. It's a fairly elegant solution. Think i will use a variable knob to get various degree's of flaps. Small flap offsets for slower / greater lift ie student flying, and larger flap offsets for take-offs & landings, or similar. Hopefully, i am not too limited on the number of pre-programmed flap offsets with the variable knob v config, though i get the knob gets you no flaps to max flaps if you want. Super!

Hey adam, thanks for the video! One question that I'm left with after this I'm hoping you can answer. I'm running a 4ch micro reciever. Im using the i6 with stock firmware(I dont have the cable to upgrade) The setup on the plane is left aileron into the aileron channel and right aileron into the rudder channel. Elevator into the elevator. I've set up flaperons like in this video and all of the aileron and flaps functions works great on the right stick. Problem I'm having is that the left stick still has independent control of the right aileron (and its reversed so if I use it the plane will do the opposite). Is there a way to tune it out so that the stick has no function anymore? Or do I just have to learn to ignore that stick? Hope you can help, thanks for all your informative videos!
@RS-bu1vz
@RS-bu1vz 3 года назад
At abit of a loss here man, thanks for the video btw it helped alot! But i do have a question; i've followed the video step by step, all settings and even servo positions are the same. When i flick my right stick wich is my elevator and aileron controls, my rudder rapidly moves left to right. Also, my flaperons only work on my right side, left wont move with it for some reason. I have to go right now for abit but once i'm back i'll completely redo it and are what happens, as for right now i havent been able to find any differences whatsoever. Running the FSI6X with the FSIA10B. Thanks in advance!

im trying to setup a glider i guess is what u would call it. this is my first time dealing with an rc plane cause it was always out of my budget to buy one but in the past couple yrs ive gotten into 3d printers an decided to take on building my own. i have the plane built have all the electronics an the i6x transmitter an ia6b receiver but im not 100% sure how to go about setting everything up, i have the rudder an elevators working or i think thats what they are called, the small wing at the back with the flaps they move up an down to pitch the nose up an down are elevators i think, and the rudder is the upright fin or wing ( i dont know the technical terms) an it moves left an right to turn the nose left an right. but when i go to setup the big wing up fronts flaps i can only get one servo to work when i need it to control 2. if that makes any sense. i feel like this is something that might help me get it working but at the same time im not sure cause im clueless with this stuff an trying to learn. ive had more luck just watching videos on stuff that im not even looking for and finding the answers when it comes to this stuff im so far off on what to search for when i run into an issue.

@sandre_sandre 4 года назад
Thanks very much for this tutorial! I used it (almost) successfully with my Conscendo Advanced. I noticed I had to set pos. mix and neg. mix at 2 times the value of the offset to have the expected behaviour. I said "almost successfully" because it was the first time I experienced flaperons, and I crashed (and repaired) because I didn't compensate with the elevator. Is there a way to do so automatically? The problem is that there is only 3 mixes on this tx :( I wanted to use the "normal/sport" dual rate system, binding it on switch C like the flaperons (it works), but this system doesn't allow to change the elevator centering, only the rates :( Is there a solution to automatically compensate the flaperons with the elevator? Thanks.
@RCwithAdam1
@RCwithAdam1 4 года назад

@sandre_sandre
@sandre_sandre 4 года назад
@@RCwithAdam1 Yes of course, but the 1st mix is for the ailerons (cause they must be on distinct channels), the 2nd and 3rd are for the flaperons :/ So I'm afraid it's not possible with a FS-i6(x)... Unless FlySky patches its firmware and give us some extra mixes...

hello, I am new to rc stuff and would like to know how to get 2 servos for pitch, snd two servos for roll in opposite directions. do you have a video explaining this?
@RCwithAdam1
@RCwithAdam1 3 года назад
Hi! Do you mean the two roll servos need to rotate opposite each other, and the two pitch servos need to rotate opposite each other? Basically, you could do that either by either 1. physically mounting the servo/control arm so that the movement is opposite the other, or 2. reverse the channel direction of the servo. Here's a video that might help about reversing channels: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--xNJZd9CGNg.html .

@RCwithAdam1 4 года назад
Hi! It really just depends on how the servos are wired to the receiver. If they are connected to the same channel port with a Y-connector, it will not work. Also, the receiver on the plane needs to be a flysky receiver for it to be compatible.

Mix#1 Master is ch1 and Slave is ch5 (pos & neg mix is -100%) Mix#2 Master is ch6 and Slave to ch1 (pos & neg mix is 40%) Mix#3 Master is ch6 and Slave is ch5 (pos & neg mix is 40%) My offset was the same on all 3 mixes (+15%) I hope this helps others with the older 6ch radio!!
