No...BUT you can do this with a switch

Seriously?

So your asking how to reverse channel 2 correct? If so you just scroll to REV, press enter, scroll to 2, press enter, scroll to REV, press back/end afew times.

Is that for dual ESC's?

For some reason the trigger is backwards. Pull in, reverse, push out, forward.


And yes Seriously.... I haven't had a whole hell a lot of time with it and the online manual is about as worthless as tits on a chicken!

EDIT: Now I know why you said "seriously"....It was easy. I reversed ch 2 and 3. Got it thanks.... I'm an idiot.

Well if you want to get technical tits are breasts and that's probably the most desirable part of the chicken so...

Long click EPA
Scroll to 4, enter
Scroll to CH3, Long ENTER
Long Click REV
Scroll to 3, enter
Scroll to NOL, enter
Scroll to 100, Long enter,
press end afew times.

Plug front servo into ch 1 and rear servo into ch 3.
Ch 3 switch will go from rear steer only, even mix, to front steer only


EDIT. I forgot, If you want momentary


Long click EPA
Scroll to 4, enter
Scroll to CH3, Long ENTER
Long Click REV
Scroll to 3, enter
Scroll to MOM, Long enter
press end afew times.

X2 I would like to see what the skins will actually cover. are they replacements for the factory decals? or do they cover more?

as far as screen protectors I dont have my GT3B handy but I'm sure some cellphone and tablet screen protectors are close enough to work and they are very cheap, also can be easily trimmed to fit better.
I use some screen protectors left over from my palm pilot 7X days (prob not still available as that was late 1990's ) for my misc devices

[ghtpdm5]

i've put a screen protector from i think best buy on mine, lot less worry. also interested in what the skins would cover, i'm working with a local vinyl guy on sticker replacement and screen surround on mine.

You may also want to make sure that the the trigger and st wheel are plugged into the right spot.

that is the worst part, I am pretty sure I never actually flashed anything into the radio, remember i was the guy with a problem board that never communicated with the radio, yet somehow all my channel got reversed, and ch1 is now th and ch 2 is st?? also the radio can control a given tx in any of the model memories I had programmed for the other tx's I have, additionally I forgot to mention that forward is limited to about 10-15 percent throttle and is stuttering , I have rebounded the esc to the radio and EPA and setting and trim at 0, so I want to reset the stock radio with the stock firmware , please help.

Just an idea... I used one from my Driod. When I got my phone done I had 2 and put one on my TX and it works good

The skins will be like the other templates I do. From what I can see as I do not have one in my hands but from the images I have...
They will be done similar to our other templates. They will change the look of your radio by accenting not completly wrapping the whole radio.
The base will be done, sides, front, the top may have a few pieces.
Take a look at some of our other radio skins like the Traxxas 2.4, 3e(we are only ones who make them) 3s, 4pk, 3r.

[ghtpdm5]

thanks for the quick response i'll probably be emailing you when you get them going.

I'm confused...just plug it in, open up stvp, flash the zero's. Exit out of it all, un plug, then repeat but open 0.4.1 then flash

If you never flashed it then its stock firmware, if its not stock firmware then you flashed it. If you flashed it once you should be able to flash it again

For the skins, I'd be possibly interested, but really $45 is a little higher than I would want to spend. That's not to say your skins aren't worth every penny, because they are definitely worth the money, it's that I'm too cheap to pay more for stickers for the thing than the radio cost me total.

To clarify though, the $45 would allow us to get a completely custom skin for this radio? Or is it just a choice of a few basic designs? If it's custom, it's definitely worth it, if it's just a choice from a few designs, I'm out.
