| servo reverser
I decided to build 4ws for my ax10. Im running a constant 4ws since my punk rock crawler computer has 2 leads cut off by a previous owner and I dont have the serial adapter to program it. I know I need a servo reverser for the back axle. So my question is where to buy it from? I know the turnigy one is cheap as heck but even for the price is it any good? I get real sceptical when something is so much cheaper than all the competitors. Im trying to do it the right way the first time. |

You should be able to do this one of two ways. -The best way is to use your radio. If you have a high end radio, they allow for mixing and you can customize response the way you want it. -I believe you can swap pos/neg wires at the pot. Using a switch as you've said is a much better solution than this. As far as turnigy stuff goes, I've always had good luck with their products. Might be worth a try if it's cheap Last edited by hibbs; 03-04-2013 at 05:57 PM. |

Thanks I did research on reversing servos and I dont quite have the steady hands I use to to reverse it internally and I dont have a radio with mixer capabilities. I just have a couple losi 2ch dsm and a 2.4 3ch system tha originally came with the associated sc10 I use to have. I will give the turnigy unit a try if it fails im just out a few bucks.

I use a EXR Tamiya Clodbuster 4WS Y-Harness Reverser EXRA325, had it forever but you can still get them. Has a manual trim pot for rear servo. Handy! Like 10 bucks on eBay.

It sounds like you have things taken care of, but maybe check out these 4WS controllers I make. Maybe it will get you going with less hastle: 4 Wheel Steering Controller 4 Wheel Steering Controller - controlled by a two position third channel |
