Good info Chris. I will be extra careful. Have you been happy with the mod? What battery do you use in your dx6??

Also, since I am sure you have run a car esc with your dx6, is there anything I should know before I try to get a MM working with it? DO I have to set the trims/expo/etc weird on the channel I plan to use a throttle?

I use a 2000mah 3s lipo which seems to last for many weeks / months before I need to charge it.

Although I really only use this on my super crawler.

I did the throttle retun mod using a spare cheap 4 chan FM stick TX I had which used exactly the same case / parts.

You can also send the radio to Spektrum and them will do the throttle return mod for free.

Beyond that no changes were required. If you put the throttle on the right stick you'd no need to do anything.
