I guess he is using a similar setup to mine. I have the servos plugged into
the rudder and elevator channels (2 & 4 I think) and I use the V-Tail mix on
my Futaba 7UAGS to set up the elevons. I then mix the rudder to the aileron
to give me the controls on the right stick. I guess if you mix this at 50%,
you would get twice the throw on the left stick.

Not sure I would find this useful - I just use the dual rates & expo on
mine.

Not sure I understand this.  Can you explain your setup (are you using the
rudder stick just for extra throw, or are you somehow
moving the control surfaces differently)?  I've got an 8U and a Boomerang so
if there's anything new, I'd like to try it out.
