Default help setting reverse with Spectrum fx3r

I am using tekin fxr with spectrum dx3r. New to this radio and trying to setup reverse. Tried everything on esc but nothing worked. Are there any mechanical setups on transmitter which enable the reverse trigger ? I also saw under "monitor" screen that when I press the throttle for reverse, screen does not show any movement however +ve throttle shows the bar move. Please help

Check and make sure the travel on the transmitter is not set to 0% for reverse.

You can download the manuals for both online. Maybe try re-binding it...

If the bar doesn't move on the monitor screen, it's definitely a Tx problem.

Most likely it's a setup problem - try changing to a blank model memory, and see what happens.

ok got it. go to the menu options and to sub trim, make sure the trottle is set to 0, then on the main screen use then set the brake to about 80% (this may very depending on what ecs u ahve and how you have it programed) what button does the depends on what its set to, mine is "E"

this was the only way i could get the bar not to move- having the sub trim set to +100% and the brake turned down to 0... out side of that reset the modle memory and start from scratch

Default Now Aux channle issue

Thanks for all the help. I got it working in reverse but now the Dig channel won't work.

As per a post here somewhere, I setup Aux curve to 40% 40% and assigned D E and F buttens but it does not move at all. Checked the servo and it is in good shape.
When I go in bind mode, dig servo keeps twitching however once the bind is complete, AUX channel does not work.

Any pointers ?:-(
