Oooh allright, so one push for an example will be front dig, then push it again and it's in rear dig and when pushed again it will be out of dig i presume?
Thanks for the quick response!"thumbsup"

What happened to thi vid? It should show programmin for non-updated radios right?
Is says it's not available:twisted:
I removed it as not to confuse anyone since in the grand scheme of things there will be very few radios that are not updated.
To program your radio you need to assign the button on the grip to the dual esc function. The DT programming for biasing is the same as the current video.

Hey Harley,
What rx do you reccomend I run in my crawlers?
Just the same one it comes with, or is there a better option?
It seems I saw there is a HV rx available???
Thanks

I'd just pick up more of the same model that it comes with. It is cheap, 4 channel and capable of running HV (rated to 7.4).

I may have missed it, but can anyone recommend a good carrying case for the 4PL? Mine should be here tomorrow and definitely want to protect it! "thumbsup"
The 4PK case works well and about any case made for a DX3R works well too.

I'm not looking for a charger, I'm going to use my ICE so all I need is a barrel jack and need to know the size.

I got my raduo set-up, it's a non-update radio thoUgh.
Mine is setup like so:
Top DT1 button is for t bias the rear axle, BUT i did this so it does it in 100% increments. This way i can shut the rear of more easy as it is the most used function. I do have another bias on the DT2 to use the bias with 20%increments.
The grip button seems so uncomfortable and slow when cycling trough the front-rear-4wd modes. I will try this setup first but it's very likely that I will do the update as this is pretty complicated still.

I just got my 4PL in and I have a question or two...
1. If I am not running dual ESC's - do I need to update for any reason?
2. Can I program this current SW for independent control of rear steer?
Thanks,
Mike

The update only effects dual ESC setup. What do you mean about programming the SW for independent rear steer?

I mean can I assign the DT switch for incremental adjustment to the rear steer with this ver SW?
I assigned CH3(where I will put my rear servo) to DT3 and DT4 w/ 30 increments but it does not show on the screen when I test it...
