i need help setting up spektrum dx6i set up for motor on axle rc rock crawler. any help would be great i have searched but found none on the dx6i
 
Ok..... i know this is an old post but i have just picked up a DX6i for $30 with the hope of running it in my Crawler build. the build is just in my head at the mo but this is what i want my DX6i to do.
Thr-With no Mix = Front Esc.
Ele-With no Mix = Rear Esc.
Ail + Expo @ 100% To Slow down Steering Twitch.
Rud = Disabled @ Travel Adj to 0%
Thu-With Mix1 Thr - Ele ACT RATE D +100% U +100% Switch Mix, This gives me (I Hope) Left Stick Both Front & Rear Esc's @ 100% Each
Thu-With Mix2 Thr - Ele ACT RATE D +100% U +50% Switch Ele, This gives me (I Hope) Left Stick Font Esc @ 100% & Rear @ 50% For Control Down Hill.
And note that i have reversed the Ail Servo for Left And Right Steering.

So.........All switches off no mix Thr=Front esc, Ele=Rear esc & Ail=Steering With Expo @ 100%. (Less Twitch)
Mix switch on (Mix1) Thr=Front & Rear esc's 100% Each.
Ele Switch on (Mix2) Thr=Front esc @ 100% & Rear esc @ 50%.
Ail Switch on Puts Steering back to being twitchy.
Now i Must Add That even tho i have the DX6i in front of me and the MONITOR SCREEN is doing every thing i want it to do as i switch the switches and as i move the sticks, I have not plugged or hooked up the RX / Servo / Front and Rear Esc's or any other part of the radio gear i plan on using.

Plus i should Add that i have done the left thumb stick Mod, I took the right hand plastic one off, used that as a template for the left hand one which i then cut out and made it look all nice, refitted the right hand one, cut 3x pin nails down to use as the pivot pin and the 2x bump stop pins and glued them in place and as i could not find anything to make the spring slider out of i just put a very small self tapper screw though it to hold the spring i used that came out of one my daughters propellant pencils (don,t tell her, she will be mad)

Most of this build you can tell is still in my head but i hope this will run my 2xEsc MOA Crawler.
I will report back as i find out if it all works (Or not) as planed.
(I DO HOPE THIS ALL WORKS OR I.M GOING TO BE PISSED)
