Thanks tom
Nope, that is a FHSS rx and you have to use FASST RX's. The only RX's are the 603, 604, & 614

Harley, what's the best way to see up the shifting for a hi lift with the 4pksr? New to the radio and this thread has been immensely help full.

The first page has a link to how to setup a three position switch, that's all that is required for a High Lift. Let me know if you have any issues.

Will the dig setup instructions operate a Heyok servo winch or is there another way? It's the only 3 position link I see. Also what is a Stage 3 winch? Thanks.

I'll be damned, as Harley states. " It can't get easier than this". How true, thanks Harley.

I'm shocked that this is not a STICKY thread. It should be in my eyes.

Finally got my chaotic switch bully build done and I have a little problem. My program with my 4pks is perfect. Once problem is for some reason the rear drag brake only works in reverse. Dual fx pros. If I go in reverse and then neutral everything locks up like it should. When going forward and then neutral only the front locks up. I have checked my fx's and both are set to 100% drag brake while in neutral. I can't tell if it's a fx problem or a mix problem. Ant help would be greatly appreciated

It sounds like the neutral point for that ESC is not set correctly. Go through the radio calibration for that ESC again.

Might have been asked before but I didn't find my answer on RCC or Google.

Anyone setup the shift servo on a Trailfinder 2? I have it set on 2POS on channel 3. End points narrowed down but already burnt up one servo.

Tips, comments, suggestions?

Shane, go check my YouTube and watch the Twin Hammers shift video. It's a 4PK but the same programming.

I used that vid to setup my Twin Hammers stock shift servo. Ran the TH for months with no issues on it. Worked flawlessly. End points were something crazy like 37 and 18.
I glanced at my TH radio settings and went to setup the TF2, guess I missed something. I'll watch it again.

Thanks.

My display quit working today. The back light is still on, but the screen is blank. The controller still works normally, just can't see anything on the screen. Last night I set the contrast on the lowest setting and now I'm wondering if that has anything to do with it? Unfortunately I can't see the screen to change the contrast back. I could see the screen today for about 30 minutes prior to it going blank. I tried changing out the battery and still no bueno. Is there a factory reset? What should I try next before sending to Futaba for repair?

Help Harley.....
