DX6 mixing 3 on 1

skorski · Nov 04, 2009, 10:51 PM

I'm trying to figure out how to combine the dual rates for ail/ele/rud on one switch. Is it possible?
Right now ail/ele are on one switch & rudder on it's own. I would rather have them all activated/deactivated at the same time.
The setup is DX6 Tx & ar6000 Rx, with 4 servos.

Not sure about the DX6 if the programming is different then DX6i, but DX6i programming menu contains a section or feature D/R COMBI which combines all 3 AIL/ELE/RUD on anyof the D/R switches.

Freechip,
Not that I can find.....I'm thinking i'll just give full throw to the rudder with a healthy dose of expo and not worry over it.
I hate being on a budget sometimes!

Dual rates & Expo are usualy user prefference. Some will use D/R as a option for when they let someone elso fly their plane or heli.

Some will just use Expo, some will use both & other will use none.

Just experiment with different settings and I am sure you will find a setting that works for YOU and you're RC.

I can't seem to figure out how to get expo on rudder! I thought it existed but can't find it in the manual.
Oh well.....I'll just have to be gentle!

The DX6 does not offer rudder expo.

Dimension Engineering (http://www.dimensionengineering.com/ExpoDuo.htm) did market a device to add expo, but they have discontinued it. Might post a want on the for sale wanted pages - someone might have one laying around.

Thanks bill,
I'm going to give it a try without, I'm pretty good with the rudder but I'll keep that mod in mind.
(Along with the need to upgrade my TX).
