I think the problem with the JR 8103 is after you have chosen the "dual flap" wing type for gliders, the retract channel (#5) will be seen by the transmitter as the control for one of the ailerons ( can't remember left or right ), rendering the retract switch unusable. I have the same requirement for my electric gliders but I couldn't achieve it with my JR 9X. Finally, I have to settle with controlling the motor with one of the sliders at the side of the transmitter.

I use a Futaba 7 with the motor on the retract channel (5), and it's fairly straightforward. It did need a bit of tuning, because I found that on the Futaba, the travel on channel 5 is much greater than the other channels, based on checking servo rotation. 100% ATV seemed to confuse the ESC (Phoenix 80) and sometimes it would not start. Dialing back to 90% cured the problem, and the full throttle light is on. > > Also, if you have a powerful system, consider programming in soft start and soft brake, if your ESC has these capabilities.
