You cannot change channel assignments with the 8U. The 8U super and the 9C have a function that allows the second aileron to be output to channel 5 but not the regular 8U. You can still use the 8U for a flaperon DLG model with a five channel reciever you just need to use a PMIX for the second aileron and accept that the aileron trim will not work quite right on the second aileron.

I use FMA Quantum 8 recievers in all my DLG models and Futaba 8U transmitters. The Quantums are plenty light enough and allow for "natural" programming on the 8U.

here are some links of interest to help with the programming;

Assuming that you have an 8U and not an 8U super transmitter;

Subject: [RCSE] This must be a very basic question about recievers


I am just getting into aileron planes and have a bunch of FMA m-5's
sitting around.  Question: Can channel assignments be changed so I
can
use this rx with a aileron wing?  If not what are the best
small/light
8 channel rx's these days?  Berg's??  I am flying DLG's

Thanks,  Thomas
