Peter,
I'm curious about the capability of your Jeti.
In the Futaba you can set up a stick switch such that it turns on when 
the rudder stick is greater than +/- 90%  and won't turn off until the 
rudder stick is less than +/- 20%. When ANDed with the same logic for 
the ailerons it makes an excellent switch to the snap condition. I can't 
find anything in the Jeti manual that will support the hysteresis of 
this stick switch logic
Not that you will find this directly in the Futaba manual, either.
John
