BTW, I ordered all the parts. Did you use a servo Y cable or run a separate channel? Both would work, right?

yeah the y harness would work your going need one w/ a reversing unit though, that is unless your willing to open up the servo and switch the motor leads and pot leads dont have the part numbers though, i was luky enough to have an lhs that stocked all the parts that i needed |

Has anyone investigated the radio to see if it can control a 3rd channel? I like the idea of the 3 channel receiver but it would be even better if the radio could control it seperately.

| I'm interested in how this works. Any chance you could write up an instructional guide on parts and installation when you get your camera going?

| Rear steer / 4WS = good times!
I just got around to swapping out my rear knuckles and such to allow 4WS today too and it makes crawling my landscape boulders a whole lot more exciting! I have some decent size rocks but the way a lot of them are laid out I had to use an awful lot of reverse to move from line to line. Now with the rear helping out it's a heck of a lot more fun and I can go places it could'nt squeeze itself into position for before. I know that it's likely going to be banned for comps, but since I don't have the time to travel to any this is just fine with me! Best mod I've done yet for fun factor! Now I just need my 2.2 trail rig to sell so I can get a nice 3 channel 2.4 radio so I can ditch the reversing Y harness |
