Hi Trevor,
Attached below is a file for Futaba MZ18 with SBUS input.
Note: Aura only need input for 3 functions (Aileron, Elev, Rudder) and splits this signal within the Aura to control all the servos accordingly.
Assign Channel 8 to a rotary switch for the master gain
Assign Channel 10 to a 3 position switch for the Gyro Modes, Top is off, Middle is low, Bottom is High
If you want Expo or dual rates, I suggest doing those on the TX using the standard TX menu for those functions, it's an approved config.
Mixes can be done on the Aura through the Mix Tab on the Aura, so for your Viper, you can get the airbrake going here and assign the switch to a channel to put flaps down and ailerons up, for example.
When you use this file, you'll need to calibrate the TX to the Gyro, use the included USB cable and a computer to do so and
1) Go to the main setup screen on the Aura 8 config tool
2) Turn on "Live Monitoring"
3) Go to the channel config screen on the MZ18 and look at the monitor.
4) Adjust the center PWM off of 1500 to get "ZERO" on the Aura Config tool.
5) Repeat for every channel used.
Then click learn transmitter and follow instructions to show teach the Aura8 the travel.
Assemble plane and click on the Servo ports Tab and use the sub trim in that menu per channel to set your center on the plane (Note: the subtrims and end points only takes effect once "Write to Aura" is clicked".
When in the Servo Ports Tab you can setup:
Sub Trim and Travel for
Left Ail 1
left ail 2
Right Ail 1
Right Ail 2
Left Elev
Righ Elev
This file has:
SBUS Input from the Receiver
2 independent ailerons per wing, this is done to equalize the throw for each servo (Servo Matching)
2 Elevator Servos
1 Rudder Servo
Throttle should be plugged into your Receiver (this is the way this is setup)
IBEC or Kill switch should go through the Receiver too. (I normally plug Channel 5 from the reciever into the Power Box input on the same channel so the IBEC gets power from redundant batteries).
Hope this helps.
Please feel free to ask any question.
Just replaced the file with the correct version.
Aura Mapping is as follows:
S1 = Left Ail 1
S2 = Left Ail 2
S3 = Right Ail 1
S4 = Right Ail 2
S5 = Left Elev
S6 = R Elev
S7 - Blank
Throttle = Direct to Receiver
Kill Switch = If using IBEC then route this through the free port on your power board, with a connection to your receiver, if not using an ibec, this can be plugged directly to the receiver.
Choke = Direct to the Receiver
Gyro On off Switch - Any unassigned channel on your receiver mapped to channel 9
Master Gain = Mapped to any rotary knob assigned to channel 10
