So both on & off side of the switch channel EPA must be set to 0 for the mix to work with the RDS8000 radio?

Joe you are correct in your understanding now. You have to set the end points both directions on channel 7 or 8, whichever you are using as you pump channel to absolute 0%.

Once under the mix channel selections you go in and set the adjustments there to the max speed or position you want them to be and you are done.

Now one other thing is that you have to set the stick points to opposites so if you you are pushing the right stick up the adjustment should be positive and when down the adjustment should be negative to keep the motor driving in the same direction.

This goes for the same left to right. You just have to figure out what direction your motor is turning and set them accordingly.

I will try to make a tutorial video tonight for you guys so it's easier to see rather than read.

Interesting..

The Spektrum programming, off is 0%, but on has to be greater than 0 or the pump won't activate with the mix. And adjusting Rate greater than 100% has no effect, the slave (or master) will only run as fast as it is originally set in the servo travel programming of the channel.

The Spektrum is the same.

You raised a good question Tyler, food for thought.
