In this video Tom walks our fellow RC enthusiasts thru the different Auxiliary Channel modes on the Spektrum DX3 Smart and how to use them. This is a great video for those with crawlers that include the DX3, like the Axial SCX10 iii, Or those looking for a extremely capable, yet affordable, 3 Channel transmitter for there crawlers, scalers and bashers. In this video we cover how to setup a 2 position momentary switch which is great for setting up the Dig servo in your crawlers and scalers. Here is a shortcut to that section - 1:40 Then we cover setting up a 3 position momentary switch, which is great for winches. Here is a shortcut to that section - 5:48 And Finally we go over setup of the 5 Position Latching mode. This mode is likely the most versatile because it can be used for a 2-5 locking positions, 2 being perfect for ON/OFF functions like lights with controllers and locking functions like 2 speed transmissions. Here is a shortcut to that segment - 8:00 One thing we want to stress is that you make sure to rebind your receiver after doing this type of programming. This is so that if the rx goes into failsafe, that it does not force the servo into a position where it is binding up and damaging the servo. Also note that failsafe positions are the position that the receiver will go to when you power on the receiver without the transmitter being on first :) Thanks for watching!

Thank you for the video, very helpful. Why, why, why isn't this done at factory instead of frying servo after servo before figuring out what's going on? Axial gladiator rtr I purchased was not setup that way out of the box, and nowhere did it mention to do so. Disappointing spektrum, Axial, Horizon . Luckily Horizon backs its products ...but easily avoidable altogether 😤

I had the exact same problem, purchased my gladiator a week ago and two minutes out of the box and running the dig servo quits and starts making a horrendous noise. Called up the shop and they said bring it in and we’ll swap it out but they have yet to receive any servos to replace it with. I feel like this is a known issue with that specific servo as there are forums dedicated to how bad that servo is. I have no issues with the rig other than that. Hopefully I can get it replaced and the end points set correctly

Hello, You did not show how lights that have an interpreter works with the A & B switch for this particular remote and receiver. Would you kindly show how it is properly done please. I have tried and to no avail the A & B switch does NOT WORK. The light is plugged into channel 3 and lights only toggle when I turn the wheel on the remote with the st rate at full right. Again, I see it can work but how do I designate the lights to the A & B switch instead of the steering wheel?

I got this DX3 transmitter and one day when I turn it on and then turn on my truggy. Suddenly the transmitter is having one light turning red/green blinking a lot and with this very annoying chirping music tone sound coming from it. Afterward, my truggy being to reverse and lost control. What is happening? During that time, there are other people running their RC cars already, and I'm around a huge rail-road train track as my environment. Just laying out the setting of the situation. If anybody can chime in on what's going on, that will be much appreciated.
