I'm assuming air pressure running from one of the air tanks for the retraction of the landing gear. An additional tank may be required. I'm thinking 7-8 channels for this. Thank you Christopher.

Presently I have an old Futaba 8UAP PCM 1024 transmitter I've been flying my 1/5th scale Mustang on. Whether or not I'll change over is an undecided decision.
