Default Re: RDS8000 Mixing Help Needed

Tyler,

The rds8000 works a little different then the 10g:

To get the pump to run in the same direction when you operate the stick in either direction, you must do this:

Pump = Aux 1 (ch 7) or Aux 2 (ch 8)
Set the EPA on either of these two channel to 0

Now, you must choose which stick channel you want to use as your (master) channel
(you can NOT use the flap channel) it only work in one direction
Set your EPA according to how much throw you want to input into the secondary channel.

Here is how it will look on the radio screen:

Arrow over to the ETC button:
Then down to : MAS (select your stick channel here)
Then down to : SLV (select either AUX1 (ch7)) or (AUX 2 (ch8))
Then down to : E-> (7) or (8)
and set your precentages from here. You have to determine which direction the pump is running and adjust your stick travel to a NEG/POS setting.

EX: UP @ -20%
DN @ +20%

These settings will make the pump run in the same direction regardless of the stick travel.

Remember to set your pump channel EPA to 0 (which may be on ch 7 or 8)

To activate this function, you must activate the tall two-position switch in the upper side of the radio (C-MIX1)

OH YEAH, YOU MUST HAVE THE PUMP ON A SEPARATE ESCBATTERY WITH THE RED WIRE UNPLUGGED

If you have any questions, give me a hollar..
