Default Turnigy 9x for dozer questions

Anyone using this radio with info is greatly appreciated. I am trying to mix channels to control all steering and throttle from the left stick. I have my ESC's for the two servos plugged into the CH1&2. So far I can get both tracks to move forward and back but unable to steer. Any help? I am a complete noob to this area

The only suggestion I have is to use a Sabertooth controller, they have the mixing built in,

Your radio came with a manual, did it not? Look under channel mixing.

Tip: the throttle channel is Master and the steering is Slave. It'll be +100 & -100.

I've never owned a Turnigy radio. For my Spektrum radio, if it's steering the wrong way, then I can either switch the + & - values or reverse the travel of steering ch itself.

ELE2 = 100
RUD1 = 100
RUD2 = -100

Go back to display and watch how they work.

I tried what you said and I still cant get it. I have the left track running off channel 2, Right track off channel 3 and the rams are controlled with the Rudder and Aileron. Do I have to plug the tracks into an Aux slot?

So for anyone having similar troubles, I finally figured it out. I have my radio set to "acro". I then set the stick type to the Rud and Ele to use channels 2 and 4 which my tracks are plugged into. Then as Oztruck said, go to V-Tail and adjust the parameters to what he said.
