| Any 4PK battery will fit the 4PL. Just search for a LiFE 4PK battery.

Should the rear ESC be plugged into RX port 4 instead of 3? Or is this another one of those things that doesn't matter? Edit -- Oh, wait. There are two versions of your diagram. I have one where the RX is shown as 1,2,3,4B. Your current one is 1,2,4 & Batt. My RX is 1,2,3,4,5,6B. I'm using 1 for servo, 2 and 3 for the ESC's and 4 for the BEC. 5 & 6B empty. That okay?

But my question was if I need to put rear ESC into RX CH4 since the TX was programmed for dig on CH4. Your diagram shows it in CH4, but your RX has no CH3 and mine does. I am trying to follow your diagram, but your RX doesn't match mine. | |

| I'll be there. But it's not the 4PL so much as the 2106 RX I have questions on. I think the TX is properly programmed. The XR should be running sometime tomorrow, so I can just see what works. Hopefully you can't hurt anything by plugging into the RX wrong.

Is there anyway to program prooportional dig to the front and back? I can get it to work for the rear but not both ends. DT4 is used for dig mix CH4, rate at 100. DT3 would be set ESC rate but this only work proportional rate to the rear. Cheers Rudolf |

| You have the ability to go to 120% on the rear which is the same as adjusting the front down. There is very few times when 20% isn't enough. There is not an option on the 4PL to do just the front.

For Ch3 and Ch4 do the following. Go to the Advanced menu Go to DT/DL Decide which DT switches you want to control your fucntions DT(#) - CH3 100/NOR DT(#) - CH4 2P/NOR Go back to Advanced Go to 4WS Mixing Switch it to ACT Select which type of 4WS options you want on screen. Thats about it. If you need more help when it arrives let me know. | |

New 4PL with dual Crawlmasters and FXR's. Both motors now set to zero timing. Two things I'd like to improve. The neutral dead area seems very long. I have hotwire ordered which I understand might help. Anything else? And the low speed control is sudden and twitchy. I thought I'd try expo but need some info. The escs are on CH2 and CH4. If I set expo on the Throttle-2 page, will that only affect the front motor? I didn't see an expo setting for CH4. Anything else I can do to smooth this thing out for low speed crawling? |

| On the 4PK you can do it but even when the radio has the capabilities I do not suggest that you do it. You don't want to have to adjust both especially when on course. You are just asking to screw yourself up. It's NOT a good idea.
