Default Controller for Super help please

I am building me a Super Bully and it is going to running front and rear steering and a dig. I was wondering if the Futaba 4PL will work for this and if not what will work without breaking the bank to much, lol.

I see no reason why a 4PL wouldn't work.

But, I would see what others say.

I can also build you a radio, dependent on what you want it may be cheaper than the 4pl

Running dual steering and dig, I would use a dx-7 it has a three position switch for the dig.

Why not use two ESC's and have it all?

we can talk about the radios.

i dont plan on running dual esc right now, i want to make sure that i can learn how to drive my super and enjoy it before i get really serious in it but maybe later when i decide to spend alot of money on it.

I would wait for Harley to weigh in, I thought there was something funky about the 4pl, especially for a super if you want to mix and run front and rear steer.

Ah yes i've been wondering where harley is, usually he is first in line.

But the 4pl will do whats needed. From what i understand 3 pos for rear steer, and a 3 pos for dig...needs epa's. So yea looks like 4pl will work.
