Hi Tasos,
Not knowing how your airframe and radio file looks like, here
is how I have connected the RC channels in my airplane.
I have a standard setup with only aileron, elevator, rudder,
throttle and the MODE switch.
ROLL, PITCH, THROTTLE and YAW from the RC receiver are
connected to ch 1, 2, 3, 4 on the PPM board.
Ch 5, 6, 7 on the board are not connected.
MODE channel from the RC receiver is connected to the channel
"MODE" (=ch 8 on the board).
The Radio file:
<!DOCTYPE radio SYSTEM
"radio.dtd">
<radio name="T10CG" data_min="900" data_max="2100"
sync_min="5000" sync_max="15000" pulse_type="POSITIVE">
<channel ctl="right_stick_horiz" function="ROLL"
min="1936" neutral="1525" max="1110" average="0"/>
<channel ctl="right_stick_vert" function="PITCH"
min="1107" neutral="1520" max="1933" average="0"/>
<channel ctl="left_stick_vert" function="THROTTLE"
min="1107" neutral="1107" max="1933" average="0"/>
<channel ctl="left_stick_horiz" function="YAW" min="1929"
neutral="1516" max="1104" average="0"/>
<channel ctl="switch_G" function="CALIB" min="963"
neutral="963" max="2069" average="10"/>
<channel ctl="VRA" function="GAIN1" min="964"
neutral="1489" max="2070" average="0"/>
<channel ctl="VRC" function="GAIN2" min="967"
neutral="1511" max="2072" average="0"/>
<channel ctl="switch_C" function="MODE" min="2073"
neutral="1520" max="966" average="10"/>
</radio>
In my airframe file:
.......
<!-- commands section -->
<servos>
<servo name="MOTOR" no="0" min="1107"
neutral="1107" max="1933"/>
<servo name="AILERON" no="2" min="1936"

<set command="THROTTLE" value="@THROTTLE"/>
<set command="YAW" value="@YAW"/>
<set command="HATCH" value="@CALIB"/>
</rc_commands>
.......
<section name="MIXER">
<define name="COMBI_SWITCH" value="0.2"/>
</section>
.......
<command_laws>
<set servo="AILERON" value="@ROLL"/>
<set servo="ELEVATOR" value="@PITCH"/>
<set servo="MOTOR" value="@THROTTLE"/>
<set servo="RUDDER" value="@YAW -

<set servo="HATCH" value="@HATCH"/>
</command_laws>
.......
Hope this helps,
Helge.

Hello,
I use a Tiny v2.11 autopilot wired according to
this diagram. I am using the PPM
method with a Futaba T6EXAP transmiter (radio) and a Futaba
R136F Receiver. The autopilot works fine at the AUTO 2 mode
with the PPM's LED staying constantly on. When powering on
the transmiter, the PPM's LED works as expected blinking at
3Hz but I can't turn to manual mode nor with the 3-possition
switch nor by turning to manual mode via the CGS. The servo
wont do anything when I am moving the transmiter' s sticks.
Any ideas?

Thank you! That worked. I just added 2 extra channels with function
"UNUSEDA", "UNUSEDB"
