Default RE: remote start

Somebody did a while back. They took reverse out so they could use the 3rd channel to start the truck then modified an ez-start system to stay on the truck and start it when he used the old reverse button on the tx.
Of course the downsides are no reverse (yeah, I know, maybe not a downside) It also added a lot of weight with the ez-start innards and the 7.2v battery, and you still have to walk to the truck if it flips anyway.
But yes, it's been done and it's not all that dificult if you use ez-start stuff and have a bit of electronics/ mechanical skills
