Default How to get rear move reverse before front DUAL ESC DX6i Need a Dx6i mixing Guru

I have read lots, but as you may know these set ups are not all alike and get very complicated.

So with the front with over drive, taller pinion than rear it runs faster in front both forward and reverse

1. How do I program the rear esc to start moving backwards before front and faster just before the front esc starts in reverse?

TRANSMITTER:
Extreme modded DX6i
Rx ar500 but i could swap in an AR6000

Dual Tmasters

Programed Mix1 on Ail/DR button with Throttle and Elevator Ch's
only have front dig with this button, but proportional rear with ch4 trigger.

2. Also what I want, is to press a button or throw a switch 2 or 3 position to get quick front or rear DIG's by just using the Ch2 trigger. I purchased a "wantasummit" Ch mixer in hopes to get that to work. ANY idea's??


All I have is:
Ch2 throttle trigger FRONT
Ch4 throttle trigger REAR
Ail/Dr momentary button programmed to Mix1 = Full 4 wheel drive then press button to get front DIG.


Thanks A MILLION!
GOT PAYPAL? I will send some cash if you have any answers

A slightly convex brake curve on the rear esc should do the trick. Otherwise you can set some exponential on the radio for the front esc going in reverse

ok. thank you. Are you saying to change my brake curve in the C-link PC settings? I'll check the exponential possibility, I am using Heli mode on the DX6.
I'll report back if it works, if it does I'll send ya some cash for helping me getting this mess fixed. no joke. I am so frusterated and want to drive my berg again.

Adjust the mix on the - side to be -120% or so, then the rear esc will kick in a little early and rotate slightly faster in reverse. It would be advisable to calibrate with it set to 100% and then adjust the value to get the feeling that you want.

I'll check the exponential possibility, I am using plane mode on the DX6.

you say adjust mix on the - side, which one is that?
Rear still does not turn faster
I got the front to start before the rear going frwd
got the rear to start before the front going reverse

MIX 1
Thro-> ELEV ACT This gives me what I mentioned above about wheels turning frwd before the rear does.
Rate D- 90% U-123% If I change this, then wheels start rotating at different rates and I loose the other feature.
SW Ail D/R TRIM INH


Which programs should I be adjusting?
something happened and now my dig button acts on both esc's


THANK YOU

I will mess with it when I get home, I am sure this will do what you want its just a matter of getting the settings correct.

I remember your radio had one of the pots backward making this a bit more difficult, I would create a copy of the setup you had and liked so you can mess with it without screwing up what you already had.
