| 5 channel radio
Is anyone on the board offering services to modify radios to make five channels? I need two channels one for throttle one for steering and then the remaining three channels need to be three position type of switches ( for a winch and lights controls on the other two). |

Or, if you've got soldering skills, you can hack a Flysky GT3C yourself (Or Losikid can do it for you) Gives you up to 8 channels with every button programmable Welcome to OverkillRC - |

Or go with a R.I.B. setup. Since you just need 3 position switches, it should work fine.

| Re: 5 channel radio I have a Dx6i but there are not enough 3 position switches on it for what I'm running... there's plenty of 2 position switches on it but I need 3 position switches.

| Re: 5 channel radio Radio In a Box. A cheap 2 channel transmitter in a project box, strapped to the bottom of your radio. Although there are a few other slick options out now. I think Grizz still uses a RIB setup though.

Imho, as stated above, your best bet would be a flysky 3gtb /c and hack kit from losikid, i have two of those radios and they work great for winch, switching gears in a tranny, digs, etc |

Using the dx6 you can set steering and throttle on the sticks. Set the winch to one of the sticks Use the toggles to control lights. |
