Cannot control servo in PixRacer via RC channel

Hello,

I am using a PixRacer on my S500 quadcopter running ArduCopter 3.4.6. The 5th pin of the PixRacer is connected via a signal line (signal & GND) to a Firefly Q6 camera. What I am trying to do is use channel 9 - which is assigned to a three-way switch on my FlySky TX - to control the camera via a PWM signal as stated in the wiki. The FlySky is configured to operate on SBUS, so I have 10 channels fully working and recognized on Mission Planner.

I can trigger the camera (switch between taking a picture and starting/stoping video recording) via Mission Planner's servo tab using the first servo (numbered 5) but I cannot do the same using the three-way switch on my TX (which is on channel 9).

I have set the following on my ArduCopter set-up:
BRD_PWM_COUNT=6
RC9_FUNCTION=1 (to pass the RC signal to AUX1 which - if I understand correctly - is pin 5 on PixRacer).

Any help or tip in making this work is greatly appreciated.
