You should be able to plug the BEC into the DSC port shouldn't you? It should be a power in but not a power out port on the reciever.

Hey guys. Gonna setup 4pks and dual FXR's tonight, for the first time. I will follow the setup instructions here from Harley, but have one question. (BTW, I am a new Futaba owner coming from Spektrum so learning) (Also new to MOA's) When I calibrate the radio throttle settings to the ESC's, do I have the radio pre-programmed with Harleys setup, or a clean model memory with esc's plugged into ch 2 and ch3? I have 4PKS and it has R614FF receiver |

Either way, it's really easy to recalibrate the FXRs to the radio. I actually only remembered to calibrate them because one was coming on sooner than the other and giving me interesting handling.... | |

So I just watched your newer vid on the 4pk set-up...I have been running your OG set-up and just changed to your new set-up and now I have a question?? my set up is as follows..but my issue is the "MODE" mine does not want to go to the "ON" I put the "MODE" to ACT and it shows like this... PMIX1 FWRD: -100 BRAK: -100 MST: TH SLV: TH MODE: ACT (OFF) OFST: 0 MXMD: MIX TRIM: OFF PMIX2 FWRD: -100 BRAK: -100 MST: Th SLV: CH3 MODE: ACT (OFF) OFST: 0 MXMD: MIX TRIM: OFF in you youtube vid it shows like this... PMIX1 FWRD: -100 BRAK: -100 MST: TH SLV: TH MODE: ACT (ON) OFST: 0 MXMD: MIX TRIM: OFF PMIX2 FWRD: -100 BRAK: -100 MST: Th SLV: CH3 MODE: ACT (ON) OFST: 0 MXMD: MIX TRIM: OFF what going on with mine??? I had some weird gliching with my new servo today so I'm trying to make sure my TX is programed the right way.. thanks oh yeah....is there any problems or issues with taking the TX antenna off?? I only use the 4pk for my crawlers so I never get very far from my rx...and would like to take the antenna off the tx... Last edited by 53 willys; 09-12-2010 at 11:22 PM. |

You're not doing anything wrong. The (ON) or (OFF) part will toggle when you push the PS1 or PS2, after you program those two buttons. Just finish the programming steps and that will work itself out. Many of the crawlers remove the antenna fromt the TX. I would estimate you still get about 100 feet of range depending on your surroundings. Quote:

Hai, Just see the wiring http://www.harleydesigns.com/images/wiring_4pk.jpg Will it work with dual BL ESC (Novak Goat + ballisitc 18.5T combos) ? Same setting as the pic ? No need to use dual BEC ? About the pic ... the ch. 2 & 3 will be used for esc 1 & 2, right ,..... and the 4th ch. will be used for BEC .... Also the cable from BEC to rx, so far the BEC from Novak goat only 2 cables (red and black), what the function of the 3rd cable (yellow color on the pic). Do I need to make this yellow cable on my Novak BEC ? Thanks |

You are correct, ESC's in channel 2 and 3. The BEC will go in channel 4. There is no need for the signal wire on the BEC. The Castle BEC's have this wire so that you can program it via the Castle Link cable. Quote:

Sorry I don't have time to read the thread to probably find my answer. But I am using a 3pk with two esc right now but switching to the 4pk radio. Will the the R603 receiver work or do I need the R604 receiver to use the 4pk for its full capability. Thanks

| For a typical 2.2 MOA setup the 603 is fine. If you want cut brakes or a super class setup you will need the 604.

So I just need one BEC attached to the battery, right. The Novak BEC included in the package only rate for 3 amp output. (http://www.shopatron.com/products/mo....0.0.0?tp=spec) Do you think it's sufficient for SDX-901 (http://www.sanwa-denshi.co.jp/servo-01.html#SDX-901)... ? Rgds, | |
