I cant find anything that identifies which one of the side servos is for aieleron & which is for pitch.
I am assuming the one on the same side as the elevator control arm is the aieleron, is that correct?
Also I am using the DX7 with the AR7000 rx, which port do I use for the pitch servo connect ?
Thanks for your help.

I have ReadyHeli's carbon frame so possibly a bit different from your setup.
I have the two "side" servos connected to Aileron and Elevator, and the rear servo connected to Pitch. Ultimately, it doesn't matter which server is Aileron or Elevator, as you can adjust your swash mix and servo reversing to accommodate either.

Gyro - (Gear) channel.
Pitch - (AUX 1) channel - Servo is on the right side if you are looking at the rear of the bird.
Aileron - (Ail) channel - Servo on the left side if looking at the rear of the bird.
Elevator - (Elev) channel - Servo is in the rear..
Hope this helps..

But it doesn't matter which of the two front servos is pitch and which is Ail. If you have them backwards, you will reverse the swash travel direction during the setup.
Your manual should show a diagram of the swash servo positions.
For the 9303 the manual shows the Pitch to the left (looking down from the rear), Ail to the right, and Elevator to the rear.

Oops, I mis-posted above. Listen to Pincone and bpd964, aileron and PITCH on the front too. That's what I get for posting late at night without actually looking at my heli? :)

That's alright. I double checked my manual. :)
