Futaba T8J Gimbal Tilt tweak

[Gizmo3000]

I figured out a handy way to tilt my gimbal all the way down using a single switch, - and still to use be able the VR knob alongside.
this will work with other Futaba's as well, and should apply to just about any gimbal

Gizmo, I take it you got your Arris working?

Sadly, I think I got one of the lemons or something, it sparked to life and then. nothing.
waiting for a replacement board to arrive.

But at least that gave me some downtime to play around and test out the Tx mods such as these so that I'll be good to go when I do get my Arris up and running. had to play with my servo gimbal in the meanwhile.

I was thinking I might play around with the manual roll as well, but realized that the previous way I had set up my Futaba had a conflict because a Failsafe switch was using the 8th channel that roll would occupy, but I figured a better method
