Title: What Radio
Post by: seahunt56 on March 18, 2011, 11:28:24 pm

Hi Everyone,   I am getting ahead of my self with my BRAtt Tug build, but I got to thinking,  how does one run 2 Z drives and 2 speed controls on one radio?  Do they make one radio with twin controls for independant steering and another twin controls for 2 speed controls?     If you dont know, you gotta ask.   Steve

I use the Robbe F-14 radio.
I have even added a Hi-Tec 2.4GHz TX module and now have full telemetry.

Giovanni

Nice looking radio Glovanni.  I see the twin sticks on the left side.  I assume they are for the throttles.  What do you do to have indepandant steering?  Steve

You can install twin-sticks on the right side, too.
I am using the twin-sticks for my sailboat winch and mast backstay tensioner.
The single-stick is for the rudder.
