Make it nine channels when you're at it. So I can free up two channels on the AR7700. That would be awesome. And I know I've been nagging about this before, but an extra set of banks (independent of the current baks) would also be a very nice feature. ;)

Hi, I believe you need an AR8xxx or AR9xxx. not an AR7xxx.

This function was rumoured to be planned for 1.3.4 (when we were on 1.3.2), but then 2.0 came out and this was not added.


Ps. Happy with 2.0 and the governor on electric, but I will wait for this function before trying it on my fuel helis.

AR7700 have support for 18 channels through the SRXL and RemoteRX ports. In addition AR7700 also have the physical ports for channel 5 (gear), 6 (aux1) and 7 (aux2). If it was possible to access more than 7 channels on the spirit, the 5th, 6th and 7th channels on the AR7700 could be used for any thing else. For example lights and retractable landing gear and things like that. Or as I'd like to use it, for throttle (channel 5) and different governor gain (channel 6) for different head speeds, as I use the internal governor in the esc. :)
