Since the GT3C was designed for a 1S LiPO, I would charge the pack when it gets to 3.2VDC at a minimum. Some people don't like to go below 3.4VDC.
Since a radio is a "low load" device, I don't see a major issue going to 3.2VDC.

I replied to your "Where can I get a 1200mah TX pack" in another thread.

I run both the 800 and 1300 down to a beeping radio. No issues so far.

I'm having a issue with a gt3b with the latest firmware.

Trying to Run duel esc on a berg with 2 mmp's

Did the programming instructions that are posted here and it not working correct. Forward and reverse 4wd work fine and rate control is working also.

Its the digs that im having problems with. If the truck is stopped and i go front dig it goes to front dig but starts moving with no throttle input. Then if you try to give it some throttle input. Its the rear Axel that starts moving.

I also can't do say front dig reverse. If i hit front dig it starts digging then if i go reverse it reverses the rear axle and the front goes forward.

What am I doing wrong

Did you calibrate the 2 ESC's??? Sounds like a radio/calibration issue.

I don't know how it could be a calibration issue, it runs fine in 4wd and the channel mix is working great.

Its almost like when in dig the channel that is off needs to be trimmed out.

I have the 6channel fs receiver that I want to set up with my twin hammers, but not sure how to bind it to my hacked gt3c really. Still somewhat new to rc, but for now I am using the stock twin hammers esc.

Ok I did the hack on the fsgt3b. I got the 4ws setup. I am using a 6ch receiver with 0.6.1 firmware. I am feeling kind of stupid now. I am wanting to program the trims to work my winch. Any help would be appreciated.

I've been running them for over a year on my hacked GT3B on my XR-10. No issues for me.

I know Zombie has had issues, not sure why.

Found out how to set up winch. Gerry Holm made a manual using the big manual. Broke it down for guys like me.
In case anyone needs it search: PSX Firmware for Flysky GT3B/C Manual
Now I have 4ws MOL/CRAB, DR for Dual ESC, and Winch full winch control.
You have to love the guys who think outside of the box.

Thank you very much for posting this,I`ve been wrestling with the controller instructions for some time. I just needed an easy to understand set of instructions for a veggie head like me
