Futaba 7c

Post by Steve Norris »

With my King Tiger motion pack being installed I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to program the transmitter to get single stick control, ie like a Tamiya

It's done with the ELEVON mixing setting. See page 44 (i believe) of the futuba 7c manual. Don' forget to subtrim each channel (page 39) to avoid drunk driving, driving in a straight line instead..

Thanks Maarten, I have now set up my TX and it works fine going forward but in reverse the stearing is the wrong way round. Do you know if this can be rectified ?

You might have to do a servo reverse (page 30 & 31)

Hi Maarten,

I used SANWA 7C. I also wished to use 1 (left) joy-stick to control the Forward/Backward and Left/Right steering, and 1 right stick to control the turret's rotation and gun's elevation. Can you provide some advices?

Thanks in advance.
