I would PM LosiKid, he has "parts radios" that have some sort of issue. He uses these for parts as needed.

I've got a whole box of triggers...

Hi losikid,
do ya know why when I put reverse (no mixing, no dig),rear wheels are spinning very fast and front very slow? my 2 fxr have been calibrated, radio too

[losikid]

Reverse the channel or go into reverse?

The steering bearing mod is worth it, I just got my remote yesterday avs there was play in the wheel so I did the bearing mod and now there is no play. Now if I can only download the hack program

Hi,

i have problem to make my dig ok after calibrating the radio (fw 032) with 2 Tekin fxr.
I put ch2 and ch3 in rev.
After calibration, my dig make my rear wheels turn slow forward...

Someone can help me?

I used the 2 ESC template.

Are both ESC's set to 100% speed in both directions (forward & reverse)?
Did it work OK before you calibrated the radio?
Did you recalibrate the ESC's to the RX?

Hi,
Yes Both esc are set to 100% Speed.
No, Never ok Before calibration esc to rx
I never calibrate the radio but I calibrate esc to rx.
Thanks

Hey losikid, are you still selling gt3b or the gt3c. I'm new to crawling and have heard lots of good things about your radios. I was looking to use a m2 dig. Any opinions would be helpful. If your making radios still let me know and ill place an order. Thanks

[losikid]

Calibrate your radio

I don't think i'll be selling radios for afew months, i may have one gt3c left, but i'm not sure. I'll stop selling everything here in a week or so...i'm moving and i'm not sure how well the new housing arrangement will work for overkillrc stuff...mostly inventory and shipping supply storage

i want to pull back on the switch for rear steer only, when the switch is let go and it goes center its front steer only. and when i push it forward its 4ws.
and i would like to have crab mode too is i can on some other channel/ switch. I have 0.6.1
Thanks for the help

Sorry about the delay....this can't be done exactly how you describe currently for 4ws, i'll make note of it though and try and get it added to the next revision.

Are you wanting this to be a momentary action, so its only in rear steer or 4ws when you push the switch?

It can be made so its rear only, 4ws, then front only.

Well if you happen to have a radio left let me know and ill order it. If you don't do you have any hack kits. How hard are the gt3b and gt3c to hack. Also if I just get a hack kit for the gt3c what adapter would I need. And would I need the voltage regulator you sell for the gt3c.

Maybe you have throttle expo set in the TX?
Maybe the motors have a lot of timing in them which would make them really fast in one direction but slower in the other direction.

I run a hacked GT3B with dual FX-R's in my XR-10, I also use the supplied "dual ESC template" with no issues.
I'm running the same firmware in each ESC, same settings as well, I have ~the same motor speed in forward & reverse.

Thanks for your answers.
No, no expo in TX ( I do r+all on gt3b and try a other gt3b and other rx)
No timing in motors, motors are Holmes torquemaster and I have tryed an other motor.

At neutral it's ok , just rear start before....

Yes would like to see front only as the default setting and 4ws or rear only, only work when activated by the switch.

Hi,
I explain again my problem :

I have problem to make my dig ok
I have a gt3b (fw 032) with 2 Tekin fxr.
I use the 2 esc template.
I put ch2 and ch3 in rev.
After calibration of esc with rx,

The dig Button make my rear wheels turn slow forward instead of stop them...

Thanks for your help

Thanks for your help

a.) Upgrade to 0.4.2 or 0.6.1
b.) calibrate your radio

I don't have anymore, i just checked

Easy to hack, just 4 solder joints, installing a program, and opening a file in that program.

I just added an option for the gt3c hack, it comes with the adapter

i don't sell a regulator for the gt3c
