Hi all, I was told the above transmitter could be used for boats so on a mad impulse I bought one without doing more research. I have been able so far to run the motor on the right stick but have not been able to get the rudder working, at this time, all I want is to get the motor running on the left hand stick and the rudder on the right one. Can anyone give me an idiot's guide to this ? or have I wasted my money. Thanks in advance for any replies. {:-{

Right stick will be aileron connection on the rx. Have you tried this? On Mode 2 the rudder will also be on the LH stick

Throttle on rx to esc
Aileron on rx to rudder servo.
This should give you motor on left hand stick up and down
and steering on right hand stick left /right.

Sorry guys but when I said idiots guide I really did mean it !!! Can you make it clearer any sketches would help.

Your receiver has 6 sets of pins coming out of it.
I would suggest that you plug the motor plug into each "one at a time" and make note of which transmitter lever it works on. ( as the motor is known as working, and the rudder may have failed).
I used this system as I have various models and they are all different, so it's easy to forget what lever does what. %)
