4 wheel steer

[B-Nad]

for a 4ws kit do u have to buy another radio unit for the truck to plug in the extra servo??

Depends if you want independant rear steering or not . You can get a Y harness with the litte reverser pot in it . That would give you 4ws all the time .

Thanks alot

Or you can modify the tq3's 3rd channel for independant rear steer . As long as you have the forward only kit installed cause then you dont use the 3rd channel anymore . Thats what I have on my crawler . There is a good write-up about it on rccrawler..I can't get on the site for some reason. When I can I'll post a link for ya .

what is it that you wnat to put it into?

 

[phx123]

Well I'm hoping its for a T-maxx . I never thought to ask him .. I only assumed cause its in the Maxx section .

o srry guys its a tmaxx 3.3

how far down does the servo hang is it any lower than the front steer servo

 

[beason]

its doesn't hang down at all, its above the rear skid. i can get a pic if needed

 

[B-Nad]

so wut button do u use on the remote to control the rear steer

 

[beason]

the rear is split off the front so they both turn at the same time. you can use the third channel to switch between turning the same way (crabing) and turning the opposite way ( sharp turns)

so i take it 4ws means all four wheels turn? Wouldn't that be incredibly difficult to handle?

 

[beason]

yes it would at high speed, its for more of a novelty. I will be using it on a slower rig, (not as slow as a crawler but same idea) so it will come in handy for tight areas.

:ha: ya its for show mostly but i just like the way it looks when all four wheels are turning haha
