How to program 6 flight modes into the Futaba 7C using Switch E for channel 5 and Switch A with a program mix with an offset

PIP video with Mission Planner on the Flight Modes Page and the Futaba T7C view


Opening Mission Planner to the Configuration and Flight Modes Page
Assigning Channel 5 on the Futaba 7C to Switch E
Adjusting the Endpoints on Channel 5 to up 47% and down 47%
Opening PMIX 1 and Assgning Master to Offset, Slave to Channel 5, and Switch A down
Adjusting the Offset to -50

Gives a PWMs

Mode 1- 1129
Mode 2- 1259
Mode 3- 1389
Mode 4- 1519
Mode 5- 1649
Mode 6- 1779

the first 6 min is how to program the radio and mission planner quickly if you have an arducopter and a futaba 7C.

the remaining 4 min of the video I ramble on how i calculated the PWM i wanted for each mode range and how i figured out what my endpoint changes on channel 5 would have to be and then how i figured out how much of an offset i would need.

I posted this video before but I ommited an important step by mistake.   This is the redo
