Nitroaddict would be the person to talk to. He runs that radio. You can send him a PM. There might be a few others but he is the only one I know about.

If this is the radio he got...

Then this is the owner's manual:

You can find a lot of information at most manufacturer's websites. Here is HiTec's Homepage:

raceman - i answered your PM. I used to have the first radio before upgrading to the second one u see in the pics.

that button is to cancel the dual rate setting u have and return to 100% throw.

EXAMPLE: u have dual rate set at 50% steering and need to make a sharp turn. By holding that button down, while turning the wheel, u will now have 100% steering.

I can second NA's answer, my dad has the exact same radio in the first picture, doesn't use anything else, he suggested to me to get this radio as well. and i know from watching my dad that that button is used to slow down the steering. Since i race my car on my 1.5lane road, it's hard for me to turn sharp enough to keep away from those ever-so-naughty kerbs... lost a dogbone from my RS4 3 when i hit one at WOT...also flipped the car too. and my dad is also racing with me and he car turn on a dime. i'm green with envy! oH, and since I need a new throttle servo, might as well replace the electronics all together...
