Wooldridge 1940s Bottom-Dump Truck

[frizzen]

Got a new 6ch rx, and 2 pack of dkky cheap 40a brushed esc (Fwd 40/160. Rev 20/80) i dunno, claims to be good for pushing 380 motors

A guy has a computer radio, doesn't want to get a big Tank track controller style esc like Sabertooth or something. Using 2 sticks seperately to drive is lame, so we're putting Full drive function mixed on Right stick. Works for stuff like Tank, Bulldozer, Bobcat, Wiggle-wagon, Scraper...

Basic tune before i even get it wired to motors looks something like

Mix 1: ch1 master, ch2 sl
Pos. -100
Neg. -100
Offset 0

Mix 2: ch2 master, ch1 sl
Pos. +100
Neg. +100
Offset 0

Splice the battery connectors together on both esc.
Pull a red lead out of 1 esc servo plug and cap, so the BECs can't fight if the stowed power switch gets turned on.

Figure out the high-amp (faster) output channel throw, wire that as Forward rotation for each motor
Probably tune in some center-stick deadband with Expo,
Play with Offsets or Sub-trims to get it steering straight

Is it enough ESC? Yo, I dunno.
Mr Bruder at the handle, gotta drive it like a vandal.
