of setting switches for flight conditions. I can understand having 3 flight
conditions on a switch but how do you set up conditions 4 and 5 on another
switch? Is there someplace on r/c universe where this is explained? Thanks, Dwayne

used to having a top-end radio like the 9ZAP. I used to have one as well and
used flight conditions similar to what you described. I upgraded to the 14MZ
which has all the features of the 9Z plus some more that make using flight
conditions even easier. The 12Z has everything the 14MZ has minus 2 channels
and the fancy screen. I think you’d be very happy with the 12Z. I’m pretty sure
you can download the owner’s manual for the 12Z from Futaba’s site if you want
to have a look for yourself.</span></font></p>

have the functions I am looking for. It is not as simple as asking in the
local hobby store, they don’t seam to understand how conditions are used for in
a fixed wing aircraft and the websites are not to clear and it’s not like I can
try them all! </span></font></p>
