Default Futaba 4PKS questions

I had a 4PK soon after they were released a couple of years ago. I used it on a 2.2 MOA. I think I had to leave channel 2 empty and use 3 & 4 mixed off the empty throttle channel in order to have front and rear dig and independently control the rear motor speed.

I am considering building a super with F/R steering and dual ESC. I want do do the same thing with digs and independent rear axle speed control. PLUS I want to have fully selectable F/R steering as is shown in the 4PKS menu. Is the new 4PKS capable of all this?

Harley's 4PK Thread is most useful.

His 4PK MOA setup uses Ch 2 & 3 for the esc's.

Thank you for that link, just what I needed. I probably should have done a search first...

I had the 4pk and then exchanged it for the 4pks because there is a built in 4 wheel steering setup. I am currently hooking up my rear servo on my super and if I figure it out, I will post my findings.. As others said, Harley is the man to see..

Good luck..

I have played around with this but must be doing something wrong. It was also after a long day at the race track and then trying to get the super finished.... Anyone have any insight. I'd love to have it so I can hit a button and have 4ws play off of my wheel rather than trim it over....
