Default Re: How is eveyone running their radio joystick operations for an excavator?

I'd like to know how you guys run cranes, draglines, and cable excavators. i'm assuming kinda close to SAE Excavator since we aren't running all the extra clutch levers and brakes.

I don't want to have to unlearn too many bad habits if i run another machine.

For now my plan was leaning toward:
Left stick
. . Left - Right = cab rotate / slew. push left = boom goes left
. . Up - Down = not used (need to convert from throttle style)

Right stick
. . Left - Right = crowd/drag. Push left = pull toward cab
. . Up - Down = hoist line. Not sure if i like 'pull up' or 'up is up'

3 pos Aux switch
. . Boom angle. Up is up
