I have a flying wing, a Zeta FX-79 Buffalo, it has on the back of the wing four rudder surfaces. Is there any negative with setting it up so i have the 2 outer surfaces as aileron and the 2 inner as elevator and not as usual on a flying wing use elevons? I guess i can set it up as a regular tailplane and set the KFF_RDDRMIX to 0 or something like that?

Maybe i am wrong but i think i have a system thats not as critical against servo failures with this solution, if one servo stops working i always have at least one aileron or one elevator that works. On my earlier wings with only elevons always have resultet in a crasch when a servo has failured.

Anyone that tried this solution?
