Beier SFR-1 Initial setup

Just a short video showing you how I test the Beier setup on the truck before permanently fixing wires. Hope you find it useful.

GLAD you're doing well and still working! :) Thanks to you and the Beier Forums, I believe I've got this sorted. I just have to rewire EVERYTHING because I wired my Truck using NEGATIVE ground!!! 😠😠😵😭😭 (Too many years as an Auto Mechanic I guess) NOW, if I could just figure out how to set up S-BUS to work on a FlySky FS-i6X.... NO good info anywhere. Now, if Santa got me a RadioLink like you have.... Chances are slim to none though. Cheers!

Hi! Thanks for your comments. I have done the same in the past. Main thing is not to make the same mistake twice :)

@@tamiyatruckbuilding7426 fortunately, most of the repair costs will be in Wire... Except for the Alumininium under Cab and Sleeper Lights, that the seller TOLD me had Resistors. They didn't. 😡😫🤬 I'm hoping I can take those apart, and replace the 26 LEDs. YES my friend, I SHOULD have tested them before juicing them with about 8 volts. I won't shift the blame there.... I just hope that the LEDs are replaceable, and not Epoxied in. I'm nearly 59 years old. When do I finally get to know everything!?!? 🤪

Hello those stands that are holding your chassis. Did you make those or are they for sale somewhere?

Hi bud setting my sfr1 up manged most stuff but for some reason when i add change direction for reverse its not changing on motor forwards is fine. Was working in reverse on my old simple set up. When I engage it on control reverse light come on along with hazards but will not turn the wheels backwards any help appreciated p.s novice take it easy on me

[@tamiyatruckbuilding7426]

Hello Ryan. Sounds to me like you've not completed the motor setup properly. The process is page 16 in the manual. It only takes about 30 secs and tells the sfr what your fwd and back stick movements are. You may have run it initially; even so, I'd do it again and make sure you do the reverse stick part. Let me know how you get on.
