Hi all, I also have the EQ6 and have this question for my AW Extra 260 104", I will use the 12 channel recever that comes with the JR 12X, this radio has a special wing configuration for using 4 servos on ailerons(2 for each) and one channel per servo, I´m runing Futabas 9156's on all control surfaces, 4 for ailerons, 2 for ruder and 2 for elevators, my question is, the EQ6 only has 8 servo outputs, so I will need 2 aditional channels to control Throttle and Smoke can I connect the throttle servo and smoke pump directly to the receiver and that be safe?

Other question, If I want to use the kill switch on the EQ6 I will need to use one channel of the EQ6 to control it, that gives me only 7 channels of the 8, what would you suggest will be the best control surface to control with only one channel.

Thanks in advance

Rafael
