Well , I had an F3 board lying around which I had used in a quad I built earlier. I was unaware that old f3 boards could be used on fixed wing.
Did some googling and came across a video and some stuff to read on cleanflight wiki. I put the board inside the small 38" SPAD I built. There is an option in the configuration window of clean flight to setup the board for a normal airplane but it doesn't actually work. After watching the video and a bit of reading, I came to know that it could be done only through CLI and I edited a script posted on Cleanflight wiki as I had only one servo controlling both the ailerons. So after uploading the script, I got the main throttle/motor output on PIN1 and Aileron on PIN3 , elevator on PIN4 and rudder on PIN5 and it works. the controller offers two modes, 1. angle mode(similar to stabilise on arduplane) 2. Passthru (manual mode on arduplane)

copy the script below to the CLI tab and hit enter to setup the board for a fixed wing airplane.
