I am using a 9 channel rx with the electric Sperber set up. The channel
assignment for AUX 2 can be one of three switches or sticks. If you put
the motor on aux4 you have a choice of 8 switches, sliders or buttons.
There are many ways to get what you want here. If you are getting
unwanted interaction with the original channel assignment you need to
deactivate that in device select.

 When using the flight modes and throttle hold, what the manual does not
specifically say is that you need to go to a program mix and mix motor
as master to the channel you want to assign to the spoiler stick when
the motor hold is on. In other words, the ancillary function you want
assigned to the spoiler stick when you flip the LAND(or other flight
mode) switch on. Don't assign any values here, or choose a switch at the
bottom of the screen. Exit the mix. This would be the same for any motor
switch assignment.

Now to get the flap to work with the spoiler stick (this example), I
went to the Butterfly P-mix menu. This will allow you to mix flap to the
spoiler stick in any direction or percentage you wish, if you wanted you
could also add elevator comp as I did, and flaperon mix if desired.
Because of the steps taken to this point, the values entered will only
affect the surfaces when the LAND switch is down or on. Simultaneous to
this the throttle (because we chose 0% in the MOTO hold window) will be
inactive.

Programming speed controls is something that needs to be simplified in
my book. Using a throttle stick as suggested by some manufacturers,
requires that you program your speed control before setting up the plane
if you want to use a button off/on when flying. That said, Castle
creations has taken the curse off this process by offering a computer
interface for programming your speed control on your PC. The nice thing
is if you are using Li polys you can select a precise cut off voltage vs
the stock presets in the stick programming mode.

JR. states that you can assign the MOOT function to a number of
different places. This is not true. In fact, all the channel functions
are stuck on the channels they are assigned to. They cannot be changed.
They can, however, be mixed.  The stock assignment for AX 2 (channel 7)
is the spoiler stick. This means that no matter where you assign the
MOOT function in the devices menu, the motor will be effected by the
spoiler stick. for a 6 servo plane, this isn't workable.
