Harley, I am wanting to keep channel 2 open for the optional XR-10 cutting brakes, so in order to get that free, does this diagram look like it'll work? I modified yours...

Do I need both ESC's to be sending power?

You actually want chanel 4 open. Please refer to the suggested setup posted in the first post.

This is a copy of your suggestion, I didn't move any channels...So you want me to hook up channel 2-front esc, channel 3=rear esc? Your diagram shows the escs going to 3 and 4 with the BEC in 2

Do both esc's need to be providing power to the rx? Does my diagram show it wired right for BEC direct to the steering servo?

That diagram is for the old setup. I don't have a current diagram. I will get a new one soon.

You don't need both. In fact, I'd only run one if I were you.

Sorry bro I have been swamped at work and just never made time for the diagram. I appologize. Glad it's working though. IF you need anything else I will try and get you taken care of ASAP.

No worries man, life happens. As my dad always has said, work before play. Thanks for the insanely helpful thread once again, just gotta get used to all the buttons that do amazing things

I too wish they would make smaller receivers. I love the hell out of my radio just wish I could drive my micro with it.

The new 30% smaller recievers were previewed at the hobby show in Japan a month or two ago. We will be getting them stateside, I am just not 100% positive on the time line. They may be coming over when the 4PK Super arrives.

That is awesome news!!! I am holding out for these smaller receivers. Just when I thought I had the top of the line radio, they come out with another...what are the differences?

No worries guys, the differences are very little and nothing that is going to change any programming that I recommend.
