And they're technically in stock now and I haven't updated my site yet.

Hello. I need a mix between channels 3 and 4. Can I do it? And if it is possible, how could I do it? I need it because I´m building an excavator and I need for the movement of the chains.

Thank you!!!!

That will cause the steering wheel to adjust the proportion between the two tracks. Plug 1 esc into channel 1 and the other esc into channel 2

You don't need to "map or assign" the steering wheel to the dig mix. It happens automagically.

The trigger still determines the speed

Oh WOW, I like this controller even more now....

Thankyou for the excellent customer support, I would of been lost with out it...
Well anyway I'm off to go do some testing and bragging to some forum buddies.... Lol

Hi. I've gone to tue Overkill website and found it not working properly. Are you they selling modded GT3C? I have found it impossible to contact them. I would like to purchase one. Can I get on the list please. Sapes23@Gmail.com. I live in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Thank you.

This is more geared towards losikid, but I would like to know if I can use this voltage regulator (I can source it close to me and not have to worry about shipping) in place of the recom one you supply. It's DE-SW050, a 5v regulator?

Yea, you should be able to make it work...

It works for me. What links are you trying?

[bbolden516]

http://www.overkillrc.com/GT3C/Insta...anual%20v0.pdf

This is what I go to but only a small x top left corner same for firmware have ST tool but not the right programs im not sure but wont verify line 1 or line 5 issues.
I can save the stock file and re upload it fine but when I try to up load new firmware all I get is all zero's in the text no values. so then I just reload the stock file and everything is fine I must have something blocked that im not seeing or compatibility issues or something, ok so there mite be an issue with the patch st tool kit I installed but why dose the stock firmware load unload etc with no issue.

[soscary]

I added myself to gt3c waiting list with everything. Got a rough estimate on these?

[aftershock1]

Gonna start on this as soon as my rx's arrive thanks again losi kid

[bbolden516]

So I know that the firmware is my issue every time I try and open it in ST tool kit to load the gt3b-0.6.1 file it goes to all zeros and I get this message.(FILE: line 5: Not in Intel Hex format!) if I leave that in the unit it is zeros and wont turn on or anything but if I load the stock firm ware it works fine, any help would be great. Ok edit here I reloaded the st tool kit and the firm ware gt3b-0.6.1 file on a another computer and it just worked zero issues sorry for the mix up but if any one is having the issues I was and you have multiple computers just try a different one.

Thanks to the losi kid and a bunch of different posts on this site as well as others.

Issue may lie in the version of windows you are using. Back a ways we talked about updates and patches used to make it work. May ha e been ur issue

[losikid]

GT3C update.

The GT3C's got turned around at customs and sent back to my supplier. So it's gonna be another 2 weeks or so before I'll even have the lot of 20 GT3C's I ordered. But I also have a few coming from another company that should be here any day now.

Gotta love customs...... Two thumbs down.
