I don't use spoilerons. Much easier for me to just do it with elevator only. Much more aileron authority this way too.

I did it, but I forgot how...If someone doesn't chime in, I'll check what I did, but I agree with Seth...elevators only.

I can't remember if the 9C has the 'airbrake' function, but the newer Futabas do. I think that will do what you want. Hit the airbrake switch, both ailerons move up a programmed distance but still retain the aileron function.

You can do it.
Set the ailerons on channels 1 and 6, elevator on 2 and 8, if you have your aileron servos in 1 and 7 you have ail dif on, just set flaperons and your ailerons will work as flaps too, set your flap-elevator mix on and elevator-flap too. then you can tune the movement you need, just remeber when elevator goes up, flaperons go down.
You could use the airbrake function too but if I´m not wrong it sets flaps to preprogramed possition and it isn´t proportional to elevator movement
