[NSRCA-discussion] curious

The Futaba 14MZ, 12Z and I believe the 12FG will automatically assign ports 
 (channels) for paired functions like dual elevators when you set up a new  
model.  The channels are assigned based on the configuration and are not  
necessarily the same between 2.4 and 72mhz frequencies.  The 14MZ channel  
mapping on 2.4g does not follow the sequence we have used for all these  
years.  And when you switch a current model from 72 to 2.4, the radio asks  if 
you want to change the channel groupings to match the performance template  
for that frequency.  You can answer 'no' and it will leave the channels as  
originally set up but not necessarily in the best performance mode.

So if  I plug say 6 ailerons in to channels 1-6 like the original Futaba MZ 
web main  page shows, we would have to compensate somehow with End Point 
Adjustment and  Servo Speed on two? That doesn't seem right.  It would seem 
more  logical that in a non-grouped setting--but effectively grouped--like 
ailerons,  twin elevator halves, or flaps, you would want them in the 1-4, 5-8, 
etc.  groups--but if you are specifically 'telling' those servos "Pal, you 
are tied  to this guy and he's the boss--you do what he does."...wouldn't 
the 'grouping'  function operate that way?

No, the Futaba FASST radios make three groups of four. What you  assign to 
those channels is up to you. Servos you want to get the signal  essentially 
simultaneoulsy you should put in the same  group.

I get the impression from re-reading a few things that you can 'group' just 
 about any number of channel positions which would lead me to believe the  
'master' takes over. But I need more input.
