Hi, i have a maverick scout that is currently using 2 servos, one front, one rear- they both run in unison together atm as i only have the stock 2ch radio that it came with.
So for christmas i got given a new flysky gt3b 3ch 2.4ghz radio from my fiancé and i was wondering if there is a way of setting up my crawler so that i can steer normally with front and then switch to full 4ws from the 3rd channel on the radio? and then switch to crab steering and then rear steering only- is any of this possible at all?
I realise i would need another unit (mixer??) to plug in to make this possible....as you can tell i dont know much about this topic and any help at all would be greatly appreciated, thanx!
