Hello everyone,it's me again!

I got a question,but first,let me explain.
In my Blizzard,I'm now running with a Sabertooth 2x12,with the stock Kyosho radio.Is there any possible way I could control the throttle with the left stick and control the steering with the right stick.As of now,the left stick controls the steering ( push up for right turn,pull down for left turn ).The throttle is controlled by the right stick ( swing stick to left for forward,swing stick to right for reverse ).This set up sucks with a passion.
It would be kinda nice if I could drive the little sucker in a straight line.Heh,Heh.
I'm always mixed up.I was thinking,that maybe it was all that beer,but then I thought...naw,it's this no good set up of mine.
As usual,my friends,all info is highly apreciated.
I thank you all.OST.

Isn't it just to switch the connectors going from the ESC to the receiver?
Just switch them with each other at the receiver.

Yeah sounds like you have some wires crossed going to the receiver... I am not sure which is which I will have to dig out my old stock controller.

OK I got it out and figure out the channels
Channel 1= right stick side to side
Channel 2 = left stick up and down
Channel 3 = right stick up and down
Channel 4 = left stick side to side

So take the wire from channel 2 and move it to channel 1 for your steering and take the one that was in channel 1 and put it in channel 2 for throttle. Just a simple crossing of the wires.

I found the stock Kyosho transmitter very twitchy compared to the Futaba 4yf.

Agreed the stock Kyosho transmitter is "twitchy " compared to other companies, but with 1 function per joystick it shouldn't be as bad as trying to do throttle and steering on the same stick.

Just got through tooling with the Blizzard and guess what,got the settings right this time.It's almost 12:30 Am,and I think I'm gonna go play outside in the back yard.It started snowing heavily,and the weather man says we oughta get around 6-7 inches.
Thanks guys for your info,if it weren't for you,I'd still be trying to figure out how the damn thing works.
Well,gentlemen,this old fart's going out.OST.
