Elevon customization via mixing

ArduPlane Plane 4.5
1

Hello,

I am attempting to configure ArduPlane to fly a paramotor.

My desired controls are:

  • Roll Right > right arm down
  • Roll Left > left arm down
  • Pitch Up/Down > both arms up/down

I think the best way to achieve my goal is to let the servos function as elevons. My RC inputs are:
(1) ElevonLeft [reversed]
(2) ElevonRight
(3) Throttle

The pitch up/down control is working fine.

Roll Right is initiating right servo down and left servo up. Roll Left is initiating left servo down and right servo up.

Is it possible to blunt the signal telling the opposite aileron to move up?

I was able to achieve the desired outcome for manual control on a Spektrum transmitter using the mixing function. I’ve been looking into the MIXING_GAIN and MIXING_OFFSET parameters as a possible solution, but I’m not sure they will allow sufficient customization for my purposes.

Not really, at least without affecting pitch.
Typically, differential ailerons are implemented by setting endpoints.
It should be possible by either using Lua or by modifying mixer code.
