Harley you truly rock. Just received my 4pk and looked through the manual talk about confusing. Your guide is so easy to understand. |

This has been the only way I could figure out the controller also, thanks a ton Harley. I do have a question that has me stumped. I set the truck us with your steps for 4ws and dig but now when I hit reverse hard my dig comes on? You can see how this is a problem. I basically roll on every hard climb I do if my front wheels lift. Any idea why this might be happening? I do have a y harness in the truck for my BEC and rear steer servo.

My 4channel receiver bound easily now I can't get my 3 channel one to bind at all. I have a R603FS https://www.ssl-stormerhobbies.com/c...ns&pn=FUTL7630. Now from what I understand this is from a 3PK module set but everything I have seen on the Futaba site says it should work. You turn power on the red light is solid hit bind button it flashes red and that is it. Hook up my brothers R603FF and it works like a charm. So is there a different setting for these?

The dig does engage when I hit reverse hard. Even if I hit reverse slow id does come on but the more throw I have on the trigger the more the dig servo engages. I am tottaly lost on this. I did change my ESC and motor a while back and this started happening right after that. I assume I have something cross wired but not sure where. Maybe I will trace all the channels and post that and someone can help me solve this. I will post the wiring tomorrow night.

When you hit reverse does the bar graph associated with the channel that controls the dig move (on the radio display)? If it does then you have a program mix activated. This would make sense as the program mixes only work in one direction if programmed as such. If this is the case go to your menu's and go to PMIX1 and set the values to 0 then repeat for PMIX2. A quicker way to do this would be to start fresh with a new model memory, this works best for people who aren't 100% familiar with the programming features. | |

I think you hit it on the head with my problme. I did have the mixes set before and may have just set something up incorrect. My best option is probably like you said and start fresh. I will try that first. And yes when I hit reverse the bar graph display does move. Thanks Harley, I can always rely on your tips to point me in the right direction.

| Now I am really confused (as if I wasn't before). I reprogramed the radio and after binding was attempting to set up my dig again and low and behold, the dig comes on while I hit reverse hard. Just to keep you guessing, now when I hit locked dig, the EPA does not seem adjustable? I have it set to 0 and the dig will still engage. Should this not move if I have the EPA at 0? I tried using the old setting (thinking they were right before, they should be right now) but the dig servo is not liking it very much. I have it set for 4wd and freewheel but locked gives me lots of servo whine. Any suggestions now? I feel like such a newbie but everyone needs help sometime. Right?

Can you list the equipment you are using? Servo models, ESC, etc. Go to the model reset function and clear the model you are using and start over. If you are not using all digital servos than go change your servo response to normal instead of high speed. Don't worry about the questions, we will get it narrowed down. | |

I did discover that I was not on the new model for a bit and after sorting that out (see what I am sayin, newbie! lol) I have disconected my dig servo horn so I will not have any magic smoke. The servo whines all the time now. I have 2 Hitec 5955 servos for front and rear steer and a Hitec 645 for the dig. I am using a Novak Goat 18.5 system for the ESC and motor. There is a CC Bec hooked up with a Y harness to the rear steer servo. I did reset from scratch on a new model memory but I am going to reset everything one more time and try again. I had this system working at one time, that is why I am so confused. I assume after I put a different ESC and motor into it and re-routed all my wiring I now have something mixed up. |

Okay, after totally clearing the model memory I seem to have it working good now but I can't set the rear steer endpoints? I do have the rear steer servo set up on the Y harness with the BEC, could this be why it will not adjust the EPA?

Never mind, I got it. The EPA now has to be set through the mixes, not with the standard EPA setting for the 4th channel. Thanks again for all the help, I would not have bought this radio if you didn't have these tips on this forum. Always a pleasure Harley.
