If your servo arm is pointing up,turn it down,problem fixed. No need for a reversing Y

I want to run my front and rear independently.. So crab walking and good turn radius can be without having to switch anything... I also want to use a stick controller... Anybody else using that set up..?

Don.. Thanks for the link..

How do you like your set up..?

Does that controller have a spring back throttle..?

Are you finding that you use the independent controls a lot when crawling.. making it a good set up..?

I am running the 75MHz unit and two Hitec HGC-5998-TG servos. I realy like my set up. I have front steering and throttle on the left stick and rear steering on the right. Both sticks are spring loaded to center. They are variable controlls so I can turn only a little or all the way.
As for if I use the independant steering alot, let me just say:Both of my competion trucks have independant steering. I have one truck that does not. And it will as soon as I can afford new remote for it.
