Default RE: DX6 setup


ORIGINAL: t_burley

the left stick does not move the tank (fore and aft) it does move the turret left/right.

I move the right stick left and right, and the tank goes forward and reverse?

I have never had this much problem in the 7 years of building giant scale warbirds. I know its
probably something simple I am overlooking (I hope)?

thanks for any and all help.

Todd

Todd,
I have three F/O tanks running on Specktrum radio so trust me I can feel your pain. [sm=71_71.gif] Also, I am the author of the Specktrum for Dummies guide on the DAK web-site so let me know if you have any questions.

It sounds to me like you might have two of the channels plugged into the Rx incorrectly. The channels in the DX6 receiver are laid out like a JR not a Futaba (for us old airplane guys).

DMD channel 1 Rudder = RX channel 2 Aileron
DMD channel 2 Throttle = RX channel 1 Throttle
DMD channel 3 M Gun = RX channel 3 Elevator
DMD channel 4 Turret = RX channel 4 Rudder

In order to get the lights on the DMD to change when turning you need to give it throttle first.
