DUMBORC DDF-350 Controller Review | Incredible for less than $50!!

[@tomv3361]

This is a true revolutionary thing because of how cheap it is. It has all the functions of a true high-end radio. As soon as I saw this vid I order it immediately, had it for a week now and I'm still totally impressed. Friendly UI combined with ergonomical design, what more would you ever need.

[@RDsRCReviews]

Agreed!!! I'm glad you agree with my assessment. Did you happen to order it from Aliexpress as well?

[@glowpipe]

Just bought x10f kit and a x6dc kit for my brother. Both with the metal wheel. Can't wait. Currently building a fully 3d printed tractor and my brother is building a tugboat to rescue his speed boat

[@timgoldsmith9126]

Just about to order this to replace a faulty RTR radio on my Rival MT10. Just working out which receiver to order - if I order the Gyro receiver, can the gyro be turned off in the menu? I’m curious to play with a gyro, but don’t necessarily want it turned on for bashing.

[@RDsRCReviews]

I'm pretty sure you can disable it that way. I've not been able to test it yet though because I don't own a gyro receiver.

Is the Endpoint where I find the throttle settings for 50 to 100 percent where it says throttle..it's at 100 percent, and I bump it up to 120 percent the Max, and it had MORE crazy power..I had it on the stan...I turn the button down to -15 and the power was very LOW,, so I put it back to 100 percent..it had its full power...Just trying to be sure thats my throttle percentage control... Thanks 👍🏿

[@motoboggle7525]

Hi Thanks for the video ! I’m looking for a set of radio gear for a rere Monster Beatle I am going to build (first rc for 20 years!) I don’t want or need lights or gyro so which is the best receiver to go for ? There are so many and some of the 6 Chanel ones look like they are completely open units it’s very confusing 🫤 🤷‍♀️

[@Bence_on_kona]

I have a mjx hypergo go16208 what do you think its compatible with it?

@@Bence_on_kona it should work as long as you use a DumboRC receiver.

[@shiraz18744]

I recently purchased dff 350 , I was messing with the setting and now I got no steering control and the green light blinks on the top of the remote, is there any way I can set to factory , I did try but it asked me to press K9 button , not sure which button that is . Thank you

[@RDsRCReviews]

I wish I could help but I have no clue

[@reprieverc]

Could the channel 5 or channel 6 dial be used for 4ws? All i can find is crab and mirror and I can't for the kife of me understand why those dials wouldn't work...

[@RDsRCReviews]

@@reprieverc honestly I have no clue, I'm sorry

[@vrnoobie3804]

hey i was wondering if i can put light directly to a DUMBORC X10FG like ona x6dc or if its an adapter to put lights on it directly

[@RDsRCReviews]

The lights usually use servo plugs so you can wire them directly to the receiver

[@chuzzwade288]

I'm really struggling to adjust my steering sensitivity. The EPO adjustments are really complex, I don't know enough about EPO adjustment, I just want to dial the steering down in a % value. So at 100% it's super sensitive, I want to try turning the sensitivity down. I've adjusted the end points. I wanted to use one of the dial channels (like I can set the sensitivity of the gyro) but I can't. Do you know how to do this or do you have some settings I could copy to turn the steering curve down please?

[@RDsRCReviews]

to be honest I've not messed with that at all since so far the sensitivity feels fine to me. Maybe I'm just used to the old controllers that sucked lol

[@Mr360alan]

would this work with hyper go cars? I have 2 lol and want to one controller.

[@RDsRCReviews]

@@Mr360alan yes but you would need to swap the receiver as well.

[@Mr360alan]

@@RDsRCReviews ok dose this one come with a receiver if not where do I get one that's for this remote I'm still new to this hobby lol thank you

[@RDsRCReviews]

@Mr360alan yes, check the purchase link. You can purchase it with different receivers or just pick up any DumboRC Receiver and it'll bind with it. They are dirt cheap

[@Mr360alan]

@RDsRCReviews ok thank you so much man love the videos

[@InTheDogHouse3DPrinting]

Where do I need to plug the power from the battery into the receiver to get power to it? I have one that arrived in the mail Friday, and the receiver isn't powering on. I'm putting it into a gas powered r/c. The radio works, but not the receiver.

[@RDsRCReviews]

@@InTheDogHouse3DPrinting on a gas car I assume you'll need a small battery pack to power the receiver. Years ago we used a 4 AA cell pack that plugged into the receiver to power it before BEC came along. I've not owned a nitro in years but I would think now they would just use a small 1s lion or lipo pack.

[@InTheDogHouse3DPrinting]

@@RDsRCReviews I have a battery pack for the receiver, but I'm not sure where to plug it into.

[@RDsRCReviews]

You need something like the following to power the receiver and also the steering servo which will be powered off the receiver. amzn.to/4dk03zP or amzn.to/4c20sWG It'll plug into the throttle servo connector which will be unused on a gas/nitro RC.

[@RDsRCReviews]

@@InTheDogHouse3DPrinting plug it into the second spot. Just make sure you plug it in with the correct polarity. Some receivers also have a battery plug but it should work fine plugged into the throttle plug because that's where an electric car gives the power to the receiver and steering servo from the ESC.

[@InTheDogHouse3DPrinting]

@@RDsRCReviews So there is nowhere on the receiver to get power to it? I have a power lead off of the LiPo battery on my r/c, but I have no idea where to plug it into.

[@nevTk-oe9ud]

nice 1 mate, regarding the lights , would those recievers plug straight in the udi porsche 1/16 scale ya this car from ali, to make the lights works ? newbie into the rc car asking:D

[@RDsRCReviews]

Doesn't the UDI use a 2-in-1 ESC and receiver? I'm sure the lights will work but you may need to swap them to a standard servo plug but I'm pretty sure you'll need to buy a separate esc for the car as well to make it work with this controller.

[@brucegreen1016]

hello, I was wondering if you can give me a helping hand, I bought the DDF-350 and can not get my winch to hook up properly, I have a warn winch with two wires red/black. As soon as I plug it into the channel 3 port, the winch automatically winds in without touching anything and won't stop until I unplug the winch from the receiver. What do I need to make the winch work properly with the controller and receiver.

[@RDsRCReviews]

I sure wish I could help you but I've never owned a RC with a winch and I don't know anything about that. I know it has winch controls but I know nothing about how to use that feature. I'm very sorry!

Yeah it is a bit overwhelming to me as well.

[@whitmanft]

CAn you run smaller rc 1/28 and 1/24 crawlers w/ this radio or do you have to have a special receiver to operate?

[@RDsRCReviews]

as long as you can connect a dumborc receiver to the esc and steering servo using 3 wire plugs then yes it'll work fine.

is the battery read out for the batteries in the controller or rc battery?

The batteries in the controller. There's no way it could know the battery voltage for the car.

You can read rc battery voltage with x10f(g) receiver.

[@RDsRCReviews]

@@ngirardo86 I'm not too familiar with that system. Looks like that's a Spektrum feature. The DDF s will only control the gyro. Looks like AVC controls both the gyro and throttle? This does have a cruise control feature. You might be able to get somewhat similar results using the cruise control along with a gyro though I'm not really sure. I've never used Spektrum so I'm not real familiar with these new features.

@@RDsRCReviews it does cut speed a little bit mainly it’s just the gyro. I don’t care about the speed control part as much as I do the steering control gyro.
