Hey! I'm in South Jersey (Cinnaminson). I am a member on GSRCRC (same username)

I'll post a pic of the whole board and point to the spot. It's right by the small board where the antenna comes from, with the shield.

Guess I jumped the gun on thinking I had it fixed.
Worked for quite a while but then quit again. : (

Back to the drawing board...

You will like Mannasquan Dam as a comp spot.

Thanks for the overall picture. Hopefully you find something else, you may have multiple issues and you fixed one of them.

Please someone help me out before I kill myself from frustration.

Ive searched through this thread and others online, read the manual and tried for an hour but still cant seem to figure this out.

I need the D/R selector on the side of the radio to be a 2 position switch for AX2 transmission shifting. I have firmware 0.6.1. I have it set up for channel 4 ok but every setting I try doesnt change it from 3 position.

It should be possible should it not? Can someone walk my dumb ass through it please. You will be saving my sanity.

Thanks ahead of time for any help.

Does the 3ch button just activate the 3rd channel or do I have to change something in the menus. I want it to activate a kill switch in my 1/5 gas truck. Yes I have it hacked

Krusty I have Firmware 0.6.1, if you have an older firmware it might be different.

I think this is how she goes.

REV long hold enter
rotate enter until you have "3" selected (3=3ch trim button)
hit enter
Rotate enter till you select "CH4"
hit enter
rotate enter till you select BMO
hit enter
at RE0 screen just hit enter
at PV0 screen just hit enter

Scroll over to Name and long Enter. It will show the model name with a C and a number. The number is the number of channels. Roll it up to the number of channels you want for that model and long Enter. It is also possible to choose R which will reset that model. By default, it selects 3 channels only, that's why you don't see a setting for channel 4

Well I finally got around to upgrading from 4.2 to 6.1 I'm curious on how others have their 4wheel steer set up. I'm finding I don't care for the way mines been set up. Had ch3 trim run 3 pos. Front steer only..... 4 wheel steer..... Rear steer only. When in 4 wheel ch3 swaps between crab and not crab. I'm thinking I want more control independantly from axle to axle. I'm thinking to have ch3 trim run rear axle in step rate in each direction then long hold to center. So let's here what ya got and like. And this is for my c3 rig so this is why I'm really needing more control of rear axle steer.

And Austin since I jumped from 4.2 to 6.1 a lot has changed..... I'll read a bunch more to try and figure out the abbreviations since they have changed dramatically.

He'll get to you bud. I heard he does everything by himself! I just got my package yesterday and it was worth the wait. Now to try and figure this out. Hang in there, orders just started shipping out last week.
