Exclamation Nomadio React 3rd and 4th channel set-up...

Okay, so what I want to do is very much like how you would set-up rear steering or front dig. I am fully capable to to set-up a servo to do basic rear steering functions, but I want to fine tune them. I've played with the software, and have answered some questions, but this trial and error method takes too much time. So I'm hoping I can gain some more knowledge from people who have played with it much more than I have.

So here we go:

I want to have two seperate servos do similar functions. I would like to control them seperately, and together using different soft keys. For now, lets just focus on channel 3, which is a micro servo, that needs 5 postions.


I'll start out with these quesions: (I have a lot )
- Can I adjust the distance of each step?
- And can I assign different distances for each step?

- Can I have a single soft key make the servo go to only 1 of the 5 postions?
- For the thumb wheel, I would like to adjust only 1 of the 5 postions. By adjust, I mean fine tune, like trim on steering. Is this possible?


I guess this is a good start...
Your help is greatly appreciated! Thank you!

It hard to understand completly what you are trying to accomplish. So anyways this is how mine is setup.

(super)

Rear steer = thumb wheel, (Channel 3) 5 Positions, 1 center 2 positions in each direction. Half and full lock steering makes it nice for turning as you can have a little variety without the truck being a handful.

Dig= I have two esc's dual motors. (Channel 4 + Channel 1) I turn the front motor off with the - key. I turn the rear motor off with the + key.



(2.2)

Dig, three positions on channel 3 thumb wheel.

I really can't answer your questions as I don't want to lead you in the wrong direction. What might be possible through complex motions that I don't know about. I'd call Nomadio from what I have heard they will answer your questions and get your radio to work the way you want.

Haha, it's better that you don't know what I am trying to accomplish... Basically I am designing something, and I need to know what the radio is capable of before I go off and make it.

Thank you for your set-up though. I didn't know the "+" and "-" buttons could do that... That's another thing to think about.

I'll try to give Nomadio a call tomorrow and see what they can do for me. But if anyone can help me out, I would greatly appreciate it.

You can also e-mail nomadio. support@nomadio.net

While they may be working on other projects like military stuff. They still answer their e-mails with in about 10-24 hours.

But I can definatley say they are still doing great with their customer service.

Scott Lenz is the customer support guy, and is very helpful.
