Default Reverse throw of 1 position on 3 position SW

My TX has a 3 position switch
Down is negative throw
Middle is neutral
Up is positive throw

Is there a device or way to change the throw on one side/channel of the switch? I would like the servo to go the same direction on both positions of the switch.

I am thinking I need something on the signal wire.
Positive signal positive throw
Negative signal positive throw

I have a Radiolink TX and a TRX6 that I am mixing the 2 locker channels to one switch. The mix is working, down position CH4 one Servo has throw, up position both servos have throw but I need to reverse the throw on CH4

Not sure I’m completely following, but maybe something like this?

Sounds like you need the Traxxas T-loc module.

I make an End-Point adjuster for a two-position channel:

It's not shown, but I can also make it for a three-position channel. It would have one more pot for setting the center position.

So each position of your three-position channel would have the effect of choosing what pot sets the servo position. That would do what you are looking for.

Let me know if you want to explore this further and I will get it going for you.

Thanks,
Al
