@Bondonutz - thanks, but I would need it to be via receiver for remote operation

@BrianG - I did not know that about the third channel. Do you know any with 3 positions?

@coolhandcountry - It's for a semi automatic 7 speed transmission (doing it just for fun). It's the same concept as the E-Maxx transmission with the paddle shift, however since there are more than two speeds there will need to be 3 "paddles" and thus three forks to shift in and out of gears. The key design is the ratcheting drum that would sit just outside of the transmission. This drum is basically a cylinder with slots etched with a helix-type engraving that guides the shifting forks as you spin the drum. For my current and rough design of the ratcheting drum it requires a 1/4 to guide the shifting fork from one speed to another.

@JThiessen - where can I find robot guys?
