Two stick to one stick control

Post by John Hill »

Hi, I am running my comet on a Futaba 7c and have just converted to one stick control, using the elevon mix function. Tracks 1&2 are on channels 1&2 and the mix is 50/50.
X axis on the joystick controls one track and Y axis controls the other, so in order to go full speed ahead the stick is at 2 o'clock And full reverse is 7 o'clock ,, is this correct ?

Regards John

In a word, no :D

It should be:

12 o'clock full speed forwards.

6 o'clock full speed backwards.

3 o'clock turn on the spot clockwise.

9 o'clock turn on the spot anti-clockwise.

Sorry, that was somewhat terse - I was just about to join a conference call.

The thread here:

http://www.armortek.co.uk/Forum3b/viewt ... von#p29769

Says to use 100% for each side, -7% Diff and then use the trims to make sure the tank moves in a straight line when the stick is at 12 o'clock.

If Mark and Dennis have time on the Saturday a master class on one stick programming can be had?
The issue is that there is going to be an unofficial parallel World Record attempt on the greatest number of Tanks that can be repaired by one person in one day. With Adrian and Dennis going head to head for the title. :lol:

I think we would have to share the title and don't forget Chris Fry he's done his fair share in the past.
