You can run them with it yes. Unfortunately you wont be able to take full advantage of mixing with it though.

To use the dual FXR's with the Spektrum radio the wantsasummit mixer is needed. Overkill-rc.com i think is the website. With that it should work fine

No -

just overkillrc.com


There is no instructions that i know of on how to set it up for the dx3c, however all you need to do is assign one switch to control the 3 linear and one switch as a 3 position. I believe the DX3C can do this.

Only with a miracle. At least those Futaba receivers for the PL are $50.

Unfortunately with the DX3c, the program will only allow one switch to be assigned to the third channel, you would have to choose between 3 pos or 3 linear.

Unlike the DX3r where you can have as many 3rd channel switches as you want.

On the other hand, if you are just looking to mix the two esc's on your radio, it will do that just fine. With the DX3c, in the mixing menu screen, you will have to slave the 3rd channel to the throttle channel and from there you can adjust the % of bias between the two channels(3rd channel moves 85% to the 2nd channels 100%, so on).

However the programming in the controller doesn't allow for an external switch to activate/deactivate a mix so there won't be any digging going on like this, just a constant mix.
