Re: wiring help for my feather
Also worth noting (you may already know) is that the yellow and blue wires don't have to be wired specifically to the positive and negative terminals of the motors, you just connect them up either way round and if your motor goes backwards when you press forward, you just reverse these connections.
Failsafes are either external units, in-built into the speed controller(s) (depending on model) or in-built to the transmitter/receiver (depending on model).
If you are using external failsafes, they just connect in between the white/red/black connector of the speed controller and the receiver. The same goes for the mixer; some will be labelled to say what plugs in where (usually 'Ail' and 'Elev') but again, you can just play around with what plugs go in where until your setup works.
I've never used external failsafes whilst using an external mixer but I think the failsafes get plugged in between the speed controller and mixer. Someone will probably be able to clarify if that turns out to be wrong though
