Servo activation by flipping a spare TX AUX switch

[RAV3N_FPV]

Hey everyone, I saw the bomb drop and tow glider episode and wanted to know how do you set up a servo to activate by flipping a switch on your tx. I have a Taranis QX7 and a spare AUX switch to use. I have room on my rx also to plug in my spare servo. How do I set it up? Thanks all!!

Check out his video. The process is the same for the QX7 on planes or multirotors.

Yes I know how to add a command to a switch in the TX but since I have a X8R rx, is there anything thing special I have to do to make a servo move by flipping an AUX switch?

No, if you use a 2 position switch one position will be full deflection one direction, the second will be full deflection in the other direction. If using a 3 position switch, the center position will center the servo. Easy as pie.
