Cockpit SX and delta/flyingwings

[Ron]

I've read the book - three times.
I've started again from the beginning, as many times.
I've changed settings just to see what happens.
But I still can't get the 'delta' mixer function to work properly.

The symptoms are really weird.
In mode 2, aileron and elevator on the right stick, and delta mixer function set, pushing the right stick side to side gives both control surfaces up and down at once, as per elevator, and moving the right stick away and towards you gives one surface one way and other opposite, as per ailerons.

It's just like the mode is wrong, except there is no mode like that :?

A bit of background.
It's a flying wing.
Two servos, one for each elevon.
As the Cockpit book says, the delta/wing function uses RX outputs 1 and 2.
I followed the book on setup and used the 'easy' basic to start with.
Set mode 2.
Selected throttle check on startup 'off'.
Selected the mixer function 'delta'.
Set the elevator up and down to 100% (just as a start).

And I get elevator side to side, and aileron for and aft.

It's driving me nuts. :!:  :!:  :!:
Well, even more nuts than I already was.

Anyone any ideas :?

Well with the older version of the cockpit radio, the one I have, you have to use the RX outputs 1 and 5 when using two seperate servos for the ailerons. Try that and see what happens.

Hi Alan,

Yes it's the same with this newer one.
Except it says, for delta only, use 1 and 2.

Actually I think I might have it sorted :shock:

There's two places you can set + and - rates, delta mixer and aileron, and one servo needed reversing too.
So between the lot you can make it do all sorts of strange things, like both servos moving the one way regardless which direction you push the stick :roll:

As soon as I get the actual surfaces linked in I'll know for sure :wink:

Thanks for your answer.
