Vplane on a Sab tortuga

Hello,

I would like to install a Vplane on a Sab tortuga, but I have a doubt on which plane setup to be used.
I think it is a delta without rudder but there are 2 canards linked together with one servo.

do you have any advice?

Which functions do the canards have?

Elevator?
Always?
Switchable?

I guess the canard has an elevator function because the manuel says « Mix the canard rotation with elevator deflection. When elevator go up, the canard should increase its incidence «.

I was thing to use Delta and create a separate mix with macrocell based on Elevator FC and the canard servo

Exactly!

The output to the servo is a Channel cell (Servo center, direction, endpoints)

I would drive this one by a Multiplexer Cell to have 3 different settings switchable.

As input for each of those above i would set up a 3-point curve cell driven by FC elev. So you can set up different trims and "D/R" each switch position ;-)

Have done a Tortuga setup and flown it successfully with just ailerons and elevators no need to have elevons on main wing. So ELEV is on canards and the wing has normal ailerons.
