JR9303/Spoiler programming

Picked up an old Paragon glider many years back, never flew it. Stated messing around with the spoilers today, got out the servo tester and a Y harness - Yep, they don't move the same direction :(

Running a JR 9303 and a Spektrum AR 7000 RX, what I want is to run them off the Throttle channel. I know I need to mix the Throttle 100% to another open channel, but I'm drawing a blank .....
 
Maybe try this:
  • Assign the Spoiler Servos
    • Plug your spoiler servos into two channels (often AUX2 and AUX3, but any open channels will work).
    • Make sure they move in the correct direction when tested individually.
  • Select the Throttle Stick as the Control
    • Go into the Device Select menu on the JR 9303.
    • Assign the Throttle stick to control the spoiler function (instead of motor throttle, since you’re flying a pure glider).
  • Create a Mix
    • Use the PROG.MIX menu.
    • Set Throttle → AUX channel (whichever your spoiler servos are on).
    • Mix at 100% so the throttle stick fully drives the spoiler channel.
    • If you have two spoiler servos, you’ll need to mix throttle into both AUX channels.
  • Match Servo Directions
    • If one spoiler goes up while the other goes down, reverse one of the AUX channels in the Servo Reverse menu.
    • You may also need to adjust travel limits so both spoilers deploy evenly.
  • Fine‑Tune
    • Use Sub‑Trim to center the spoilers.
    • Adjust End Points (EPA) so the spoilers fully close at stick bottom and fully open at stick top, without binding.
