Does anyone know if the 12Z supports this feature?

I think I've got it figured out.  It looks as though it affects both sides
on something like rudder to aileron so it will take two flights to get there
instead of one but it should be a big improvement vs. not having it at all.
Hope to fly this radio in a real plane next week if the weather permits. It
was kind of fun to set up.

Jim
