2. I've put the motor on the Gear channel (channel 8).
3. I made the launch switch the "arming switch" for the motor. Once it's armed, the right slider is my throttle. Several people suggested that I make the motor a simple on/off switch, but the thought of pouring all of that power at once scares me. So I'll use a throttle until I get comfortable with it. I also have a tad of down elevator mixed with the motor switch.
4. In order to get the slider to work as a throttle, I used the C-Mix and made the master and slave channel Gear. Then I was able to activate the trim and set the right slider as the trim control.

<x-tad-smaller>and I have no idea. What he needs is to be able to put the motor on one of the sliders. He has an older speed control that isn’t programmable for soft start, and using the gear switch isn’t what he wants with a geared brushless 12-cell plane.</x-tad-smaller>
