Thank you so much for the great in-depth instruction on programing this transmitter. Mine came from the manufacture/supplier with the throttle programed backwards. Push forward for throttle and pull backwards for brake (maddning). I knew someone could help me change it. It was you. Thanks again.
Nice video. As far as the Fail Safe operation, I think you could see it work by accelerating the motor and while it's running, cut off the transmitter power. The motor should stop with Fail Safe operational, but likely continue without Fail Safe, as your RC goes into the sunset, never to be seen again. In my experience, the Exponential setting usually produces a more gradual reaction from the steering servo, making steering much more controllable and produces less oversteering.
I just found out how to use the feel safe. With the petrol motors there is no reverse so I just held the brakes full on and press the feel safe. Now when I witch the receiver off it got to the position where the brake was when I press the feel safe button. So with electric u do get a reverse and the best thing it to hold the brakes or centre the motor so it don't run anywhere and press the feel safe. But ur video was very useful. And thanks how I made my feel safe.
One way I check the failsafe is to power everything on, and throttle the motor up a bit, hold it, and turn the Tx off. If the failsafe is working, the motor will spool down, if it's off, the motor will stay spooled up.
Thanks made it look so easy.great info. Sure helped me alot .also the reciever plug ins are labeled s+- some of the plug in are wired differently make sure black to black red to red on the plug in
So can it bind to say the stock receiver in my scx24, WPL C24, and not need to buy 7 of their brand of receivers? I have 8 mini crawlers and need a remote that can bind all...
plain and simple likey no it wont there is a reason that we have Different radios and recievers how ever i have foind that fly sky is compatiable with some if nt all HSP radios and recievers as well as Redcat as red cat and hsp are pretty much the same machines
Question I have rovan Baja b5 I have the same transmitter and receiver when my car go about 25 feet the fail safe comes and stop is there away to turn it off?
A quick question ? I will be using 3 separe boats on this transmitter. THE main system will be using the STOCK receiver that came in the box , with the GT3 B. HOW do I bind the additional receivers , prior to installing in two other boats? THEY are the Waterproof version of the STOCK receiver. IS IT a simple task , of choosing the MODEL # on the Transmitter , and repeating the first process? I've never tried this , before? Thanks for great videos , as they are VERY informative .
you need to set up each reciver on its own channel number the instructions cover all this for you its as simple as bind each new toy and save each to its own channel this way you can also program the radio for the specs for each rc
Stupid question. I just got setup on this. Now right is left/left is right and I’m assuming my drive functions are backwards since it’s faster in reverse. What did I get backwards here?
you have to reverse throttle and steering controls on the radio to get it to work porperly with your rc not all rcs use the same setups because of the escs and servo location steups
I just purchased an Exceed Maxstone 8 crawler with this Tx/Rx setup. I like it so far, but am having trouble getting it set up. In your video what are the arrows that are above the end point percentage? I noticed on mine going through the various settings, those arrows will pop up. Great video, and any help will be greatly appreciated. Where can someone get an ESC for 2 brushed motors? I know exceed offers them, but I was curious if any other manufacturers have them.
red cat has the dual brushed motor esc's as for your question on the radio i dont know i sold the radio long time ago someone else needed it more then i did, but i think you can download the manual for it
I think the motor only keeps spinning when you lose the signal while you pressing throttle. So try turning failsafe of, then give gas und while you are holding gas turn of the radio and the motor should spin even is the transmitter is turned of. Please ignore my mistakes. I like your videos :)
Anyway of swopping the throttle and steering servo channels over without changing the plugs around ? As for some reason when I do that the esc doesn't let the motor run correctly
you need to use the bind plug to start with other wise its not goingto bind to the radio but you also have to hold the bind button same time you turn ont he radio the instructions for the radio are very clear how to do this
no idea dude i just used regular batteries in it i wont use rechageable unless its part of the unit otherwise you dont get full power to the radio and that will not go well in the end
if your using it on a differnt rc then use a different channle this way you setup each cars settings specific to each reciever other wise you can do as you wish
you can not do that with any reciever with out a splitter and you also have to run a seperate bec and disable the becs on your ecs as far as i know but on this system no way
i wish you would have had a car on and showed trim adjustment etc also that would have been good... i think my trim stopped working ...but not sure since you had no model in your demo...again maybe its my radio went bad since i have not used in several years.thanks
Okay how do you bind the esc? I can’t get the motor to drive? I have the steering working but can’t get the motor to drive? Do I need the bind plug in for that?
you need to bind the reciever to the radio then plug your esc to channel 2 hook up your battery to the esc and thats it other then your steering channel on channel 1
@@driscollboys8671 just your ESC goes into channel 2 of the reciever and the steering into channel 1 the radios a 10 car you can program in aka channles so pick one fo rthe car you want give it a name etc.
I've got the same transmitter and trying to use it on an SCX10 with a taser 60 amp brushed speed control. I've got the exponential's set to +100% and the throttle is still way too touchy and sensitive. -100% makes it go full throttle immediately. I need the throttle to be softer at the lower range of trigger movement
Can i use this with an arrma kraton and the receiver already in it or do i have to switch and use the receiver that comes with the transmitter? thanks i am thinking about purchasing a new transmitter and this seems pretty good.
Don't know if you can answer this question but I'll ask anyway. I have been given an OLD electric truck (2 WD) pretty large, without transmitter, to see if I would like to explore this area of the r/c hobby (I fly planes)..... this old truck has a brushed motor.... I purchased this transmitter and receiver to control the truck but have run into a problem. The steering is working perfect... the motor however just keeps running when I power up. When I move the throttle about mid way the motor stops and then if I continue moving the throttle in the same direction the motor will reverse.... good and bad news.... good news is the motor works, bad news is I cannot adjust it so that with the throttle in the N position the motor will not stop.... I have tried adjusting the end point and the exp without success. Being a brushed motor perhaps the "normal" way of doing things does not apply. Any thoughts? THANK YOU!
there should be a small hole in speed control for an adjustment pot it uses a small flat screwdriver to adj the ZERO point of the speed control. you can adj the forward throw and brake engagement point on on the speed control itself (very old school mid 80's)then adj the transmitter to fine tune . hope it helps
Hi there, great video! It was really helping me out well but I stumbled over one major issue: i bound it and all but my steering only works when I move the throttle, no throttle : no servo reaction at all. Also when i hit the throttle very short, the motor keeps on going. Have i overlooked something or is it maybe a faulty tx?
@@KevinMillard68 hey kev, thanks a lot for the immediate answer. I found out that if you bind a new model to a new model number on the tx, it keeps the settings used before, even on other model numbers. I just had to turn the dual rate and exp to the standard values to get the car working. After that I was able to alter them again without any negative results. Had this problem before with same tx and similar rx. So, thx!!
I finally got around to setting up a second vehicle on this transmitter. I think I may have gotten duplicate receivers, or maybe it's supposed to work like this. I can control both vehicles with either profile. I assumed that switching from one profile to another would disconnect the transmitter from the previous vehicle. I purchased two extra receivers when I bought the Transmitter. Is it normal to be paired to two receivers on the same profile. It's not much of an issue since I would never be trying to drive both vehicles at the same time, but it can be an annoyance if I forget to turn the first vehicle off after the battery runs down, and then it recovers enough to respond to the transmitter when I switch to the second vehicle.
yes is supposed to work like that what changes is the profile setups for each car/truck you set up so if you use dfferent programing for each one that is affected where as yes they can both run at the same time
@@KevinMillard68 Kevys Rc & Music Thank You. I kind of figured that out this morning through some experimenting but it's reassuring to hear from another user that it works that way. I had set the end limit on the steering on my first vehicle, and was about to do make the end adjustment on the second one. I tried the second one using the first profile and it was right where I wanted it, so I went to the second profile and started out setting it to the same percentage. This is actually a very nice feature. I haven't raced in awhile, but some of the tracks I used to race at, alternated weeks between Oval and off road. I could set up a profile for each style of racing. Now if only I could set up a Shock and Spring Profile. Thanks again for responding.
Kevys Rc & Music got it on my vxl 1/16 summit idk if u rember me kev i was the one who wanted covert there l959 to traxxis lol but now have a summit soooo love it
i coverd all that in the video might want to watch the video again , you will need a Reciver for each RC you want to program in you can also only use the recievers made for this radio tho all recievers will be the same you will programm the specs you want for each rc you setup in the radio
Kevys Rc & Music Thanks so much I pick up random controllers. They have been working on my 27 MHz. I just can’t get the 2.4 ghz to pair. Thanks saved me some $$$
you have to program it if its not working right for you ,, read the manule it will tell you what you need to know you also might have to calibrate your esc as well..
I'm new to rc and i got an 1:8 scale buggy, it has tge fs-gt3b controller and hobbyking receiver. I want to know if these will bind or not? Thanks in advance
what gear it came with will work with it as for the radio in my video working with a hobby king reciever i have no clue man no one does till they try it and see what happend but these radios do come wiht their own recievers i know that most hsp recivers work with this radio because they are fly sky radios that come with most hsp trucks
yup you can i do it all the time there are many channels now they all bind the same so you just need to setup your trims endpoints etc. on each channel for each machine just switch to that one that you need with its setups before turning on the car or boat etc .. so it sets the right settings for each one,, with the fs gt2 radio you can do the same except you have to manually change every time for your trims etc. this radio will allow you to have presets already so one you set it up you're good to go
can you do a steering reversing video because my one is reversed and when you push forwards turns servo left ans push it down it goes right I need help
Thank's for the Video on binding this reciever, I have 2 of them and was trying to bind one to a Redcat TX as per Redcats website said it would work on my Grandsons XBE but to no luck.. anyhow I need to know if you can mix Channel 1 and 3 for rear steering on a Crawler? If not then I suppose I could sell them, Thank's
iam going to say nope you can not mix them what you need is a 4 channel radio , the red cat 2 and 3 channel radios are the same as the fly sky that i do know and does work
Funny thing is the the endpoint for the throttle goes up to 120% but is at stock 100%. I always wondered why my car was so slow. This is the updated program version.
If you are holding the throttle so motor is running turn the transmitter off should make the motor shut down. If the motor is just sitting there you're not going to see any effect. Fail safe should take motor back to neutral when transmitters turned off.
Question: taking the electric car with this station at a very slow steady rate, I see that randomly, it hits like a small gas strike and returns to the slow rhythm ... what can it be? It happens to me with two cars, different variators, different receivers, same station
I am assisting a friend who has upgraded to this radio. How do I calibrate the radio to match the ESC so that when the throttle is neutral on the transmitter the motor is stopped? thanks in advance Allen
you need to read the manule for the radio it will tell you how to program everything you need youlll need to go into the throttle seetings and start at the 0 point and adjust as needed untill the esc does nothing when your finger is off the trigger
@@KevinMillard68 Thanks for getting back so quickly, I can adjust the throttle trims no problems but it is just out of range and as a result the motor still spins, albeit slowly. I cannot find anything further in the manual about it. Any thoughts?
It's my understanding the auto brake only really applies for electrics right? like, how quickly the electric motor brakes at 0 throttle. would you use it for a nitro car?
you can use the radio on nitro or electric as for the brake function iam sorry i dont know if that also applies to the nitro as i only run electric cars
+Kevys Rc & Music I have the radio, and I have mainly nitro cars. I was just curious as to the use of the ABS. Was I correct that it controls the auto-braking of electric motors?
i can not tell you exactly how it works as i have never used the function nor did i have the manual for the radio i got it used , i never noticed any thing different about how the radio deal's with the brakes other then its a bit slower then any other radios which hit the brakes much faster
I CAN HELP ON THE ABS ISSUE IT WORKS THE THE SAME FOR ELECTRIC OR NITRO . When the abs system is turned on it pulses the voltage to the signal wire for channel 1(the middle wire in the plug from the servo for nitro or the speed control for electric) during braking,keeping from locking up the brakes and skidding out of control. works very well on my fifth scale 2-stroke and my 4wd modified touring car i haven't noticed a big difference in either my 2wd truck or buggy. i got my first gt3b with my 2wd fifth scale at 3 foot long and 43 pounds you don't want to be skidding across the track at 50 mph and taking out other cars thats gets expensive and makes enemies QUICK ! the abs pulses the brake for a more controlled deceleration. on the touring car it's the same except for high bite tracks where it makes life challenging. i've since bought several more FS3GTB systems I think they are certainly as good if not better than any 3-400.00 dollar system out there In fact they(flysky)supply base model 2.4ghz radio's for Redcat,Helion.ECX and even ,some Associated and a few losi RTR. They are a major player in the sub assembly supply chain to big box company's like Futaba,Spektrum and Graupner. hope this helps
What is the name of the newer receiver that can bind to different transmitters? And what is the name of the older one? I have one of them, I just don't know which one it is. Mine is called fs-gr3c
bro i use a spectrum SPMXSEM0501 esc motor combo and trying to bind it to shit is literly imposible. the second i bind it it randomly beeps and the throtle just fucking stops. this i the only video that could help thank you
try setting the throttle range there are instructions on traxxas website that might help if not well you have a manual for the radio it should tell you stuff on there for that, i have never used this radio on the summit my self but on many other rcs an never had such and issue my self
I just bought a used traxxas revo 3.3 with this particular remote. The issue I'm having is when I want to go left I have to turn the dial on the remote clockwise and when I wanna go right I must turn the dial counterclockwise...🤔
well id say give it a try and see what happenens, if you after the steering part then it might just be the way in which the servos are mounted and of course youll need a y adapater to have both on channel 1 which is your steering channel but due to the extra volts and amps your drawing mostly the amps tho youll need to bay pass your escs onboard bec and put in and external bec about 7 amps or more depending on the draw of the servos and other stuff in the truck of course
With this radio, can I buy multiple GT3B receivers and put them in different cars. I'm understanding I just program the radio for each different receiver, is that right?
Hello I used this setting for my 1/5 scale 32 cc will it move now ? 😆 otherwise I’m going to give up ! I am so upset that I am not good with these things
It’s electric it’s not gonna take off if fail safe is on or off either way it’s not gonna run away only nitro runs away u got to set fail safe that’s what I have had to do
well that has not been my eperience r the experinece of others sorry but your wrong about the electric part runaways can and do happen when there is no fail safe system active
Man I just find your video so helpful, i find my self refering to 9 or 10 times a year. Thanks
thanks and your welcome

I love my GT3B,receivers are 5 bucks and the range is awesome
cool and yes great range
to test the fail safe you need to be running the motor when you turn off the radio, the motor isn't going to turn with the TX off lol.
+Adam Earl acutually it makes no difference
It does with a nitro...Throttle cut off and brakes on! ;)
Ya without fail safe, it's not gonna just go crazy. Lol
When I set the fail safe, I held the brake all the way down and then held the fail safe button till it stopped flashing. Worked on my Savage X 4.6
I just found out how to use the feel safe.
With the petrol motors there is no reverse so I just held the brakes full on and press the feel safe.

Hello Kevin,
I plan on buying a Flysky FS GT3B radio for the Gmade Sawback ....... :O)
cool stuff its a good radio
Do you the polarity of it's charger ?
Is it tip positive or negative ?
no idea dude i just used regular batteries in it i wont use rechageable unless its part of the unit otherwise you dont get full power to the radio and that will not go well in the end
Okay thanks I'm thinking about ordering the same receiver can I bind it to the same channel I was using or do I have to choose a different Channel
if your using it on a differnt rc then use a different channle this way you setup each cars settings specific to each reciever other wise you can do as you wish
I have a important question before buying this. Can you put 2 speed controllers on there without a y splitter. I sure you can just making sure.
you can not do that with any reciever with out a splitter and you also have to run a seperate bec and disable the becs on your ecs as far as i know but on this system no way
i wish you would have had a car on and showed trim adjustment etc also that would have been good... i think my trim stopped working ...but not sure since you had no model in your demo...again maybe its my radio went bad since i have not used in several years.thanks
could have a bad servo as well never rule out anything and always think outside the box
Okay how do you bind the esc? I can’t get the motor to drive? I have the steering working but can’t get the motor to drive? Do I need the bind plug in for that?
you need to bind the reciever to the radio then plug your esc to channel 2 hook up your battery to the esc and thats it other then your steering channel on channel 1
Thank you I got it! Kept thinking you guys meant the radio had to be on channel 2 I totally missed the transmitter!
@@driscollboys8671 just your ESC goes into channel 2 of the reciever and the steering into channel 1 the radios a 10 car you can program in aka channles so pick one fo rthe car you want give it a name etc.

thoughts? THANK YOU!
sounds to me like it could be a programing issue with the esc it self or you gota bad ESC
there should be a small hole in speed control for an adjustment pot it uses a small flat screwdriver to adj the ZERO point of the speed control.
you can adj the forward throw and brake engagement point on on the speed control itself (very old school mid 80's)then adj the transmitter to fine tune .

Kevys Rc & Music got it on my vxl 1/16 summit idk if u rember me kev i was the one who wanted covert there l959 to traxxis lol but now have a summit soooo love it
Okay. But how do you program your different models into the radio in the first place? Thanks
i coverd all that in the video might want to watch the video again , you will need a Reciver for each RC you want to program in you can also only use the recievers made for this radio tho all recievers will be the same you will programm the specs you want for each rc you setup in the radio
I bought a Tonka 2.4 ghz truck at the Goodwill. It didn’t come with a remote. Would this work with that truck?
not on a tonka toy it wont this is only for hobby grade RC's
Kevys Rc & Music Thanks so much I pick up random controllers. They have been working on my 27 MHz. I just can’t get the 2.4 ghz to pair. Thanks saved me some $$$
@@izzysworldofmonstertrucksa4634 your welcome, look on ebay for the proper controller or email the company sometimes you can get lucky doing that
How do you make it go into reverse i got the radio on and hpi 15t motor with fowardand reverse having promblems
you have to program it if its not working right for you ,, read the manule it will tell you what you need to know you also might have to calibrate your esc as well..
I'm new to rc and i got an 1:8 scale buggy, it has tge fs-gt3b controller and hobbyking receiver. I want to know if these will bind or not? Thanks in advance
what gear it came with will work with it as for the radio in my video working with a hobby king reciever i have no clue man no one does till they try it and see what happend but these radios do come wiht their own recievers i know that most hsp recivers work with this radio because they are fly sky radios that come with most hsp trucks
hi how do you change the trigger positions. mine is set forward to go and back for brake. How do i go about changing it to the standard way. thanks
you have to go into the programming and reverse the 2nd channel
hey Kevin is it possible to bind more than 1 receiver to the transmitter so I can use transmitter for car and boat? cheers
yup you can i do it all the time there are many channels now they all bind the same so you just need to setup your trims endpoints etc. on each channel for each machine just switch to that one that you need with its setups before turning on the car or boat etc .. so it sets the right settings for each one,, with the fs gt2 radio you can do the same except you have to manually change every time for your trims etc. this radio will allow you to have presets already so one you set it up you're good to go
can you do a steering reversing video because my one is reversed and when you push forwards turns servo left ans push it down it goes right I need help
sorry cant do it... i dont have the radio any more but the setting is in the menu to reverse the channels
Thank's for the Video on binding this reciever, I have 2 of them and was trying to bind one to a Redcat TX as per Redcats website said it would work on my Grandsons XBE but to no luck.. anyhow I need to know if you can mix Channel 1 and 3 for rear steering on a Crawler? If not then I suppose I could sell them, Thank's
iam going to say nope you can not mix them what you need is a 4 channel radio , the red cat 2 and 3 channel radios are the same as the fly sky that i do know and does work
@@KevinMillard68 Thank's for the information 👍👍 I'll Smash the 👍 and Subscribe
Excellent video. Thanks.
thanks and your welcome
Funny thing is the the endpoint for the throttle goes up to 120% but is at stock 100%. I always wondered why my car was so slow. This is the updated program version.
interesting
When I pull the trigger to me the truck wheels go in Reverse and when u push away it makes the wheels go forwards
revers the throttle channel and that will fix your problem
If you are holding the throttle so motor is running turn the transmitter off should make the motor shut down. If the motor is just sitting there you're not going to see any effect. Fail safe should take motor back to neutral when transmitters turned off.
yes we all know this
@@KevinMillard68 my bad I was just trying to help.
@@roberthill6690 :)
Does it have to be a fly sky receiver? My receiver light turns solid but when I turn off and back on no connection.
dont understand what your asking
Thanks a lot!
You're welcome!
Question: taking the electric car with this station at a very slow steady rate, I see that randomly, it hits like a small gas strike and returns to the slow rhythm ... what can it be? It happens to me with two cars, different variators, different receivers, same station
dont know whats causeing the problem sorry
@@KevinMillard68 thanks
Thanks helped me a lot
10/10!
your welcome
Hey man. I connected everything but my throttle doesn’t work, my steering works tho
check to make sure your esc is in channel 2 and that its in the right direction for the connector
I am assisting a friend who has upgraded to this radio. How do I calibrate the radio to match the ESC so that when the throttle is neutral on the transmitter the motor is stopped? thanks in advance Allen
you need to read the manule for the radio it will tell you how to program everything you need youlll need to go into the throttle seetings and start at the 0 point and adjust as needed untill the esc does nothing when your finger is off the trigger
@@KevinMillard68 Thanks for getting back so quickly, I can adjust the throttle trims no problems but it is just out of range and as a result the motor still spins, albeit slowly. I cannot find anything further in the manual about it. Any thoughts?
It's my understanding the auto brake only really applies for electrics right? like, how quickly the electric motor brakes at 0 throttle. would you use it for a nitro car?
you can use the radio on nitro or electric as for the brake function iam sorry i dont know if that also applies to the nitro as i only run electric cars
+Kevys Rc & Music I have the radio, and I have mainly nitro cars. I was just curious as to the use of the ABS. Was I correct that it controls the auto-braking of electric motors?
i can not tell you exactly how it works as i have never used the function nor did i have the manual for the radio i got it used , i never noticed any thing different about how the radio deal's with the brakes other then its a bit slower then any other radios which hit the brakes much faster
I CAN HELP ON THE ABS ISSUE
IT WORKS THE THE SAME FOR ELECTRIC OR NITRO .
When the abs system is turned on it pulses the voltage to the signal wire for channel 1(the middle wire in the plug from the servo for nitro or the speed control for electric) during braking,keeping from locking up the brakes and skidding out of control.
works very well on my fifth scale 2-stroke and my 4wd modified touring car i haven't noticed a big difference in either my 2wd truck or buggy.
i got my first gt3b with my 2wd fifth scale at 3 foot long and 43 pounds you don't want to be skidding across the track at 50 mph and taking out other cars thats gets expensive and makes enemies QUICK !
the abs pulses the brake for a more controlled deceleration.
on the touring car it's the same except for high bite tracks where it makes life challenging.
i've since bought several more FS3GTB systems I think they are certainly as good if not better than any 3-400.00 dollar system out there
In fact they(flysky)supply base model 2.4ghz radio's for Redcat,Helion.ECX and even ,some Associated and a few losi RTR.
They are a major player in the sub assembly supply chain to big box company's like Futaba,Spektrum and Graupner.
hope this helps
I followed all that exactly and my steering works but I’m not getting a throttle response
well check the wires on ytour motor also check the motor it self as well. also you sholdbe in channel 2 for the esc for the motor
What is the name of the newer receiver that can bind to different transmitters? And what is the name of the older one? I have one of them, I just don't know which one it is. Mine is called fs-gr3c
cant remeber off hand and i dont have this radio anymore
mine goes fast in reverse and slow forward? can I safely reverse the wires and which of the 3? or is it something else Esc or fly sky?
you have to program the radio to reverse the directions only...you can not flip the wires
Hi when I pull my trigger my car goes backwards and when I pushy trigger it goes forever can.u help
reverse the the motor wires or reverse the switch on your radio for the throttle
I bound mine without the bind wire, abd it seemed to work fine. Why is that? I don't understand the reason for the bind wire now.
sometimes you need to sometimes you dont
bro i use a spectrum SPMXSEM0501 esc motor combo and trying to bind it to shit is literly imposible. the second i bind it it randomly beeps and the throtle just fucking stops. this i the only video that could help thank you
your most welcome
Hey thanks so much for this vid mate....
your welcome
hello kevin, thanks for the video, i have one question , what is the reference of you ESC, i want buy one thanks
reference of ESC ? not sure what your asking, the one in the video was an esc was a cheap made in china one i got off banggood if i remember right
Thanks for the vid!
+Shy KK your welcome
hi. Can it bind to flysky gt2 receiver? So that I can use it to my hsp mt brontosaurus without having to buy another receiver.
i dont now for sure try and find out is all i can tell you
So i have the same transmitter and the throttle is really sensative i bearly move it and the summit goes full speed how can i fix this?
try setting the throttle range there are instructions on traxxas website that might help if not well you have a manual for the radio it should tell you stuff on there for that, i have never used this radio on the summit my self but on many other rcs an never had such and issue my self
I just bought a used traxxas revo 3.3 with this particular remote. The issue I'm having is when I want to go left I have to turn the dial on the remote clockwise and when I wanna go right I must turn the dial counterclockwise...🤔
go into the menu for the steering and reverse the channel thats all there is to it
thanks
:)
Do you know wat channel no the receiver that comes with the remote is on
this is 2.4 ghz tech so there is no way of knowing which frequency of the 2.4 its on
Thanks, very well explained! I just wanted to ask what the receiver's name is?
fs-gr3e is the reciever model , how ever alot of red cat and hsp recievers also will work with the flysky radios as well
@@KevinMillard68 Ok, thanks for your answer!
@@dominiksalzer your welcome
I like that transmitter im thinking about getting one reminds me of the hight end spectrum rc planes transmitter
+David Law its pretty decent
+Kevys Rc & Music this one takes batterys
+David Law 8 AA batterys but there is a mod to use a 3s lipo with it
+Kevys Rc & Music so its inter changable
+David Law all i know is that there is a mod for the radio i dont know much about it youll have to search youtube for it
Could this controller work 2 servos with 1 in normal and 1 in reverse as i want to make my tamiya twin detonator 4x4x4
well id say give it a try and see what happenens, if you after the steering part then it might just be the way in which the servos are mounted and of course youll need a y adapater to have both on channel 1 which is your steering channel but due to the extra volts and amps your drawing mostly the amps tho youll need to bay pass your escs onboard bec and put in and external bec about 7 amps or more depending on the draw of the servos and other stuff in the truck of course
what do i have to do to fix the throttle? cuz i give it gas and it goes backwards not forward?
+Linda Weimer reverse the throttle direction in the settings menu
With this radio, can I buy multiple GT3B receivers and put them in different cars. I'm understanding I just program the radio for each different receiver, is that right?
I'm just trying to understand, each channel is for a different vehicle. With Each different vehicle you need it own GT3B receiver, is that right?
yes that is correct
you use a channel for each rc so you can program its settings for each so you need a receiver for each rc and you program each channel for each rc
ALL good, thank.
your welcome
What should the settings be for a Traxxas slash 2wd
what ever you want
Hello I used this setting for my 1/5 scale 32 cc will it move now ? 😆 otherwise I’m going to give up ! I am so upset that I am not good with these things
So it’s all ready connected
try and see what happens
try and see what happens
@@KevinMillard68nope still just revs ah I have no idea now the engines running I will just let it idle for a lil while
Sounds good though
It’s electric it’s not gonna take off if fail safe is on or off either way it’s not gonna run away only nitro runs away u got to set fail safe that’s what I have had to do
well that has not been my eperience r the experinece of others sorry but your wrong about the electric part runaways can and do happen when there is no fail safe system active
He’s not to sure about the fail safe method, He said go figure.
and your point is
Nice video, Thankyou
nereo cardenas thanks and your welcome
I got a problem, after i done binding the new receiver why the motor keep running by itself when i shut off the remote? Please help me.. thanks
you need to set the safty shut off on the reciever
Kevys Rc & Music ok, it’s works.. thanks
