Spektrum Dx5 4ws Setup 4 Wheel Steering Dx5 Rugged Dx5c

[@nikpinet2745]

What a great tutorial. I could not for the life of me figure this out. Thank you so much!

[@CCxRC]

Great tutorial Justin! That is how I have my setup for my Bigfoot clodbuster. Plan to show the new way I do it in my update on my CEN B50. 👍

[@jayoHobbies]

Thanks Tony! This is basically what I figured out by exploring the radio and it has worked very well so far, but I'm definitely interested to see an alternate method... the more I can learn about radio setup the better. 😁

My 1/24 monster truck is just about done thanks to you

[@plincoman]

thanks for the vid! just got the AX-24 and have been banging my head against the wall about whether or not i would be able to convert it.

[@brokenmanmx]

Perfect video for dx5 4ws, thank you!

[@monkeyrc7541]

Thank you, that was an excellent tutorial. Was your rear servo plugged into the Aux1 channel, or did you splice both servos into channel 1? It would’ve been helpful too to see your receiver set-up before programming the DX5 Rugged.

Big Thx! Worked for Me on the DX5 Rugged 😁

[@stevenknaak9957]

thanks i was having a hard time setting my 4ws and it was simple with your video

[@gordonellisjr331]

This is a great tutorial for set up instructions for the radio. How do you have the servos wired to the receiver? Are you using a "Y" cable attached to the steering port or some other configuration?

[@71rdskns]

I am wondering the same. Did you figure it out by chance?

[@71rdskns]

I actually figured it out just now. Channel 3 works

[@rcpd3157]

That's a great detailed video. Fantastic job.

[@jayoHobbies]

Thank you! 😁❤

[@sofghost6663]

@@jayoHobbies are you able to set the button by your thumb (button g I believe) to enable 4ws reversed (like a monster truck steers) so press button g to turn on 4ws and then press it again to turn it off. Or make it momentary where you hold it down to have 4ws and then release to return to front steering only? Or are you only able to do that with the dx5 pro?

A Sr315 is pretty cheap too I just picked up this transmitter pretty cool

[@kozzymotorc754]

Great video, made setup so easy.

[@dudeski934]

Awesome video didn’t know my controller could do that

[@jbrundt]

Thanks. Nice and concise.

[@Hairy_and_Scary]

Thank you!

[@ryanwilliams3157]

So this might be a dumb question... what channel did you plug the rear servo into.. (I'm kinda new building rc)

[@jayoHobbies]

Plug your rear servo into the AUX1 channel.

[@sgtlt]

very informative, I will be doing this mod soon, thanks

[@Eric78360]

Thank you my good sir..

[@bckirkegaard]

Thanks for the very simple and direct explanation!! My dx5c does not allow to select steering : INH once in mixing. Just ships right over it to MIX 0: INH. Any ideas.

[@trevork7403]

Mine too. Cant figure it out

[@vidwiz12345]

Any answers yet? considering this radio

[@bckirkegaard]

Still same issue. I selected a button to activate rear steer to make it 4WS, but not able to do rear steer only.

[@ronniecreason7870]

Thanks

[@mikejurnak0324]

Seems like a good radio I still use RTR controllers 🤜🏻🤛🏻

[@maddrcbashing8999]

Do I need that exact receiver or will any spektrum one work with the rugged? I have the receiver from axial acx24. TIA

[@aaronpeters1770]

Great easy video, saved my ass

[@jayoHobbies]

Thanks for watching man, glad you found it helpful! 😁🏁

[@aaronpeters1770]

@@jayoHobbies i did , new subscriber bc of it. If you had a video to sync to traxxas summit wud be killer. No rear steer, just has 3 modes for lockn and unlockn diffs

[@motododo4626]

I'm ordering the orange one with a 5 channel spectrum reciever. What channel should I plug the rear servo into? To make it work like this

[@jayoHobbies]

You can plug the rear servo into channel 3 then follow the directions in the video to complete the setup. Front steering will be on channel 1 and your ESC will be on channel 2.

[@motododo4626]

@@jayoHobbies thanks man this was a good walkthrough I'll throw ya a sub

[@jayoHobbies]

Thanks for the support! 😁🏁

[@cslrclorne]

i am hoping you could help. I have dx5 rugged, the controller works , for steering but no throttle. The radio looks like it receives the signal, but the car wont move. the steering works. any suggestions

[@jayoHobbies]

It sounds like maybe your steering dual-rates are turned all the way down, I'd check that first. If that doesn't work then I'd try plugging another servo into the reciever and confirming that the servo in the car didn't die.

[@cslrclorne]

@@jayoHobbies will try when i get home later and keep you posted. Look forward to your next vid

[@cslrclorne]

Jayo RC just tried to replace 2 different links , was on phone with traxxas at time. First one connected but no movement. Then link light went dead. Re installed new one and same thing. Traxxas Algren something wrong with esc. Now a month long adventure waiting on getting the truck back. I hope only 1 month. I only own this one. I was waiting to buy my exb. Ordered the radio. Waiting on seeing what you put in your exb stay safe and keep the comrade going with rc guy. 👍👍👍❤️

[@aaronpeters1770]

Wish you had one on how to set up to traxxas summit 1/10

[@joel_t_fpv]

only if they put a potentiometer to just control the rear steer independently..... rugged fail

[@fredwaldrop3810]

Thanks, bud!
