Question dx6i mixing

I am trying to run dual esc's and I'm using a dx6i, but when I set up the mixing and turn it on it doesn't mix. Anyone have suggestion or had this problem before? Thanks

I was having some problems at first with mine also. What are your mixes set at? Can you take some pics and post them up.

Yea tell us what you have set...The best way to troubleshoot the setup is to look at the monitor screen so you can see what is going on.

The trim inhibit is so that trims you apply to the master channel wont carry over to the slave...It just makes it easier to get everything trimmed in since you will be turning the mix on and off. Your setup is weird, why mix to rudder rather than elevator?

It would normally read:

Throttle--->elevator
U 100% D 100%
Whatever switch you want to use to turn it on and off.

A cool trick is if you go U90% D110% then you will have overdrive on the axle moving forward with no right stick input, you may have to mess with the numbers to get it dialed in to where you like it but it should help keep the suspension sucked down.

My screen looks like this

Elevator. Throttle. ACT
Rate D+ 125. U+ 125
SW on. Trim ACT

I don't know why it won't work.

And I have tried it with Throttle controlling Elevator.

With the DX6i nothing can mix to the throttle channel...The programing just wont allow it, sounds like that may be your problem. Also you should only be 100% on U or you will overdrive the rear.

It can be very confusing to get all the switches in the correct position at least for me, make sure that your switches are all in the correct positions.

What does the monitor screen show when you work the throttle?
