Default Dx6i Programming

Hey Guys,

Not sure if this has been posted, but I can seem to find it..I am converting a Bruder 574 and want to control the hydraulics etc. with my Dx6i.. how do I program the pump to work with the sticks? I have two esc, one for drive(fwd/rev) with 4 gear motors... the other esc for the pump motor...I see some transmitters have a rotary switch to control the pressure..can something similar be done with the Dx6i? How can I program this and will I need two batteries?


Many Thanks

No suggestions? Does anyone use the Dx6i other than for trucks?

Thanks

Just mix the two channels for the boom and bucket with the channel for the pump esc. With the DX6I that will be the only 2 mixes you have available.

Thanks Travis! looks like I may need to upgrade my radio have my eye on the Turnigy 9

On another note, I have been doing some research, do you guys know if it possible to run 4 brushed gear motors with one ESC ?

Cheers,
Blair

I have 4 gear motors ran by 1 ESC in my Bruder 574 and it seems to work fine so far.
