What sticks perform each action?

Left stick center - no movement?

I am going to try using a DX6I on my Menck M251 conversion, wonder how to configure for ease of use and smooth operation .

Thank you for the videos of your projects!

Hi Jim,

the dragline:

sticks in center= no movement

left stick right/left = turning
left stick forward/back = lift up and down the bucket or the clamshell bucket

right stick right/left = lift up and down the boom
right stick forward/back = drag rope for the bucket or close/open the clamshell


One channel is for switching two controllers (switcher ON/ON wit a servo) from the drums to the driving motors


the backhoe

sticks in center = no movements

left stick right/left = turning
left stick forward/back = lift up and down the boom

right stick right/left = close and open the bucket
right stick forward/back = pull the bucket to the excavator


One channel is for switching two controllers (switcher ON/ON wit a servo) from the drums to the driving motors


Best Regards and hope i could help you

Wolfgang,

When you say two controllers do you have 2 radio receivers in the model or is it another device which you switch functions? If it's another device where did you get it?

Thanks in advance

Hi Brian,

i have used a switcher like this:



switching with a servo. The cables from controller goes to the middle, by switching the connection is on the right side or on the left side, once to the motors for driving, other for the drums.

If you have any problems to understand, i will show you a picture.

Thanks for the explanation. I misunderstood what you meant in your earlier post, but it makes sense now.
