Revolutionary New Switch for Compressors

Sorry, I misunderstood your plan. :o
(It read like you wanted to operate the bow-planes and lights on a single channel.)

Yes, that should work great. :)

Toppack,
If I understand David correctly, I will remove the LPB pump off of the toggle switch (channel 5) and add it with a y-connector to the ballast sub-system servo on channel 4. That will free up the toggle switch for the lights. The forward and rear dive planes operate on channel 6. Let me know if I got it wrong.

If you're talking SEAVIEW (just about the only boat I would mechanically link the bow and stern planes together) yes, you got it right. In almost all other boats the stern planes would go to channel-6 and the bow/sail planes to channel-2.

With the exception of SEAVIEW you want to keep the stern and bow planes segregated; stern planes to handle the angle of the boat, the bow/sail planes to manage depth keeping and depth changes. Actually, the SEAVIEW, as I configure her, has three sets of horizontal control surfaces: stern planes, bow planes, and the sail planes (which work independently to manage depth control).

David,
