does the suuper 7 futaba tx have ccpm capability?

we aren't heli fliers, from what we understand ccpm is the mixing of various servos, to provide cyclic and colective control? then there is mechanical and electronic... we are more confused.

thanks for your help

I have an old 7 channel Futaba TX that I use for aircraft. Mine does not have mixing for 90 or 120 deg. CCPM.

Cyclic-Collective Pitch Mixing allows control of the swash directly with three servos. All the mixing for making the servos work together to tilt the swash (for cyclic) and move it up and down (for collective) is in the TX.

Nope no eCCPM on super-7, but you can buy a Quick UK mixer to go between the receiver and servos pretty cheap to save some radio upgrade bucks. About 60 bucks US
