Got it, here is the mix that will allow you to use 2 different buttons to control the 3rd channel.

PMIX1
mst:ch3
slv:ch3
ofst:+100

PMIX2
mst:ch3
slv:ch3
ofst:-100

Using the "offset" feature of the mix menu is the key here. It allows the 3rd channel to go full throw in one direction with the push and hold of a button. I assume the 3PK has 2 mixes, right?

Let me know if you need more detail, I can type it up tonight.

Yup 3PK has 2 mixes IIRC. That sounds like it should work.

Change the buttons from "ALT" to "NOR". That changes the behavior of the button from a "push on, push off" to a momentary type where you have to hold the button to keep it on.

Did the bbeaty workaround for the 4pks. Rear value is displayed on the right as well as the servo view on the left. Good to go.

Post up exactly what you have for your mixes and button assignments.

I'm guessing you haven't done exactly as whoodie posted before. Reread his posts and if you can't figure it out post your screens and we can probably fix it. Reread his instructions first though.

Maybe set the down value to 0. I would have to read through what Whoodie posted more as I haven't looked into this extensively yet.

What are you try to accomplish? If you are setting up an MOA, just follow the video.

snip
SW2 needs to be set to "Prog Mix 1" or "Prog Mix 2" depending if you want that switch to front or rear dig. Let me know if this works.
