Tubby B17 Aura 5 Lite Transmitter Set up

[Sgt_Hoser]

Hello Flitetest friends.
I am in the final steps of getting my Tubby B17 ready to fly. I have installed an Aura 5 connected to a Radiomaster R88 receiver. Everything is programmed and ready,with Channel 5 for the mode select on the Aura and Channel 7/Aux 2 set for the bomb bay.

My question is in regards to channel 6/Aux1. In the Aura Config file it appears in the mixes tab for the differential thrust that this mix is set up to be enabled/disabled by a to position switch on channel 6/aux1

My assumption is this is in place to allow the diff thrust to be turned off as wished if i assign a switch to channel 6, correct?

Does anyone else use this when using the Aura 5 on a multi engine build?

Thanks for any replies/responses

I have a Bronco "A-tail" twin, but I don't mix the throttles. I have only one throttle connection. and normal rudder control. If you want to test this, be sure to REMOVE THE PROPS ON THE PLANE!

One caveat; You should have only one of the BEC connections to the Aura.

Is this a config supplied by FT?

On my Bronco, I have to reach between the props to connect the battery. I added a switch to the rear of the fuselage to make sure the props don't spin when my hands are near the props arc. I can reach the switch without my hands coming anywhere near the meat-chopping spinny things (aka props).
