3-Channel Radio or Servo Reverser for 4WS?

[kev187]

Hello

I am about to set up my new CR01 with Radio gear. I had to use the long bracket for my TLT-1 to reverse the rear servo.

How well do the SERVO REVERSERS work?

I am going with 4-wheel steering, front & rear Futaba S3305 High Torque servos. But I am going to try this inline reverser for the rear servo on a 2-channel set up.

Any thoughts?

Also how exactly does the 3rd channel on a 3-channel radio handle the rear servo, are they both connected to the steering? Is it worth my while to pony up the extra cash for a 3-channel radio vs a 2-channel & the $19 reverser?

Thanks in advance everyone!

I am looking forward to getting this kit running!

I would also like to know how to make 4ws work on channel 3?
I have a wheely king w/ tf-40 transmitter & rf-40 reciever.
It's all hooked up and when i hit the ch3 button the rear tires turn but all the way right or all the way left.
Manual doesn't give any info, hpi hasn't answered me & nothing on web sites.
Someone has to know.

I will honestly say look into a hacked gt3b or gt3c radio...... You can get more use and function out of your rear steer and get more bang for your buck.

The hacked GT3B and GT3C are really great. If you don't want to use one of those, I build a product that will help. It uses either a two or three channel radio to operate your 4WS. Other than channel controlled servo reversing, my controller lets you set end points and center for the rear servo.
