| Looking for a radio
I will be running a berg with dual esc's and 4 wheel steer. I want to be able to set the steering up 3 ways, normal - just the front, rear proportional to the front, and rear inversely proportional to the front. This way i still just use one steering input ant the rear will either copy or mirror the front input. Then for the motors 1 input controls both the same or be able to control them separately. Will the 4pk do this? i know it will do one or the other from the program instructions already posted. Do I have to go to a 6 channel or more to do this? Any help is appreciated, my local hobby shop guy doesn't do any programming for custom odd stuff like this and just said I don't know.

This radio might work well for you. I cant be happier with mine and losikid is very helpful with his products. There are 4ws mixing options and dual esc mixing options. And 6ch GT3B Hack Question and Answer Thread |

If you are planning on comping don't waste your time with 4 wheel steer as it's not legal in 2.2 class. Plus, in 2.2 dig is much more useful and keeps the truck more stable than 4ws.

If you don't feel like messing around with the flysky I recommend the Futaba 4PL. Its a fair bit more expensive, but quite reasonably priced compared to other big names.

The GT3B can do what you want...but 4ws won't act as you described. A 3 pos switch will control, Front st, mix, rear st...Then you have to program a button to switch between crab and normal. GT3B also has great dual esc features, a ton of options...i'm still working on getting more implemented. Only advantage the GT3B has lets say over a 4pl is price, but the price difference is HUGE. The features/functionality is about the same, the 4pl can do a few things the 3b can't, and the 3b and do a few things the 4pl can't. So the real kicker is ergonomics, the gt3b fits decent in your hand, but isn't the most comfortable. Oh when i refer to GT3B (3B) i mean a GT3B with a new firmware flashed, when its in stock form its turd. It'll still do basic functions, but... |
