Revo 3.3 Lights

[jellis4148]

Hello everyone. First time on this site. Recently got a Revo 3.3, and I love it. Doing a few upgrades, but enjoy driving it. I've had T-maxx's in the past, but really enjoy the Revo. Anyway, I have the TQI receiver, and all spots are being used except the 4 pin to the left. I would like to install lights, and have them turn on with the App. Is this even possible? I've searched the site, and the internet. I have not found much of anything. If I installed the expander that added 6 more plug ins. Would that work, or plugged into the 4 pin? I'm not sure what that's actually for. I'm assuming the telemetry expander. Any help would be great. Below is a pic of the Receiver. All Channels are full except the 4 pin on the left. Thank you.

time to add some rx splitters.. or make your own.sure you can use the 4 pin but its not made for a larger current supply not sure the circuit can handle lights .camera .action.shut down . aah a runaway(loved those)

So if I use the splitter. Which Channel do I plug it into, and will the lights be on all the time, or will the turn on/off with the app?

you will have power if you have a onboard control unit then u can use app. unless you use all those channels for always on or off things you will still have power on/off. it wont matter where you put lights id just put how ever many u need on 2 separate ch.

I was just told by Traxxas support because I asked the same question and they told me that even with the Traxxas app, there’s no way to control these lights that basically when they’re plugged in, they’ll be on the whole time the truck is on.
