Hi Guys,Thanks again for all your help. I now have Spoilerons all set up re. the Futaba 6EX Handbook.

Problem I have now is that I am trying to put some Down on the Elevator to stop Ballooning and it moves UP instead of DOWN when the Flap Lever is switched to Spoilerons. There is not enough Percentage Movement to take it down. All the other controls work perfectly, including the Spoilerons. I have tried all I can think of to reverse the Elevator - Any ideas please.???

Big Phil uses a 6EX and I know he has set up spoilerons. I'd send him a PM, he'll help if he can.

Hi Steve, I have managed to fix the problem with the Elevator on switching to Spoilers myself. Do not ask me how.. It was a combination of using the Select Key on the 6EX and the Flap on/off positions on the mixer and the Flap lever, plus a slight adjustment of the Elevator Push Rod. The Elevator Servo was centred at first.

I can understand now why I received no replies from anyone else. I cannot remember what I did myself now!! Thanks guys for your interest. You learn something everyday !! Cheers, Bob
