Title: noob question
Post by: endusto on May 30, 2007, 09:19:41 PM

i just have a beginner question about remote control robots.  how do you know which switch on the transmitter operates which servo on the robot, or how do you tell it which one to operate?

if it is not labeled then just plug a servo into channel 1 reciver and push each button on the transmitter one at a time until the servo moves. then label the button that makes the servo move channel 1. then unplug the servo and plug it into channel 2 on the reciver and repeat the above process until you have the channels all figured out.
Hope this answers your question.
