The best explanation for this transmitter. Thanks a lot! 👌🏻
My pleasure.
I have never seen such a great breakdown on how to make this remote work, u jus made my day!!
My pleasure. 🤝
Many thanks for taking the time to share this! I found this TX to be very unintuitive and ‘menu dive’ heavy. Your video helped a great deal!
My pleasure. Glad it helped.
Very helpful this is my first not OEM remote and I got so lost in the settings and the manual 😅 definitely nice way to break it down.
My pleasure. Glad it helps.
Great work here! I spent 10 minutes with this tx and was convinced I hated it.. After watching this, I think I can like it after all!
I'm glad it helped. It really is a nice simple Tx... once you find the new option locations.
wow this really took off into an explanation of common settings on every single transmitter and not so much about this transmitter
Good point. 🤔 Maybe I can change the title a bit.
i scowered youtube your hands down the best how to for futaba controllers thanks
My pleasure, and thank you as well. Cheers. 🤝
Great job explaining this transmitter. I learned a great deal.
Thank you. I am glad.
Love this detailed video thank you
You are welcome. 🤝
Really cool thank you I learned something I didnt know about my transmitter!!
🤝
Very helpful!!!!
Thanks for the video plz make more, im just getting into rc cars and will need more videos with this much info in them lol😂
My pleasure. Before the year ends I should have some on springs.
@telecomandorc im just getting into rc and just bought a 3pv but cant find videos on setting end points
@@Thommo360RC In this video, it is the section that talks about EPA (end-point adjustment). Or do you mean how to know how to set it properly when looking at the car?
@@Thommo360RC
I do have the video bellow just in case that is what you mean. Let me know.
"Mistake to avoid when replacing servo horn with different length check your end points with power"

@telecomandorc oh great thanks heaps, yeah i mean the the throttle and fail safe
Great info
Thanks. 🤝
Thanks for an in depth explanation, great video. Just gained another subscriber 🤘🤘
My pleasure. And also thank you. 🤝
Speaking of the long antennas back in the day, I always thought the driver stand looked like a fishing competition.
🤣 so true. I think I ran 87. Not sure, but when antennas touches... that was fun.
@@telecomandorc Yeah, that's about the time I raced, too. Ran a Futaba FX10 car with Futaba Attack two stick. Before that, it was a Hornet and Futaba 2gs radio.
@@PsychoticBovine Very nice. Things have gone a long way. It is still amazing to see the progress in electronics. Sometimes I wonder how long before we see autonomous TC racing similar to current drone races.
@@telecomandorc Yeah, I've tried to drive via fpv video and I really can't do it. I just can't get a feel for a skid or things that like.
@@PsychoticBovine
Well, welcome back to RC. I do have a StarWars Xwing drone from Costco I bought a while back. I do not fly it enough, but I still cannot manage. Someday I will.
Can you tell me more about “linking” or pairing the esc??
It will depend on the Rx.
Here are two videos where I pair two different Rx to the Futaba Tx:

Hi thanks for this great video! Is there a way with this radio to turn reverse down meaning so when I’m in reverse it goes like 50 slower? Thanks agin
Yes. Go to EPA (end-point-adjustment). Go to ch2 in EPA. When you see ch2, you should see a letter and a percent (F 100% for example). Use the throttle and push it as if you were breaking and release. This should change it to B 100%. Then lower it. It will affect your brake too. You can also try expo to change how much punch it gives and just avoid the last bit of travel. Depending on the esc, you might be able to do it there. This can be done with Hobbywing esc models.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
My controller when I turn left it goes opposite. How do I swap it around
Reverse Ch.2 in the Tx.
Can the transmitter be adjusted that if I hold the throttle all the way down, it will say only give me 30% power? From what I understand EPA, you can only make maybe 50% down throttle be 100% power but not the other way around.
I can turn the EPA down to 0% which makes it not run at full throttle. The throttle is so low at 10% that my USGT just cogs up. I need at least 20% for it to run somewhat smoothly. At full throttle is is slow. But 30% is quite drivable indoors.
Could you also use this with VRC racing simulator
I have no idea. I have never done it.
Hey bud great video, i know this is off topic however what tire glue do you recommend, Iam asking cus i know you race and light bash. Kinda same way i drive. Thanks brother
I use the JConcepts CA. AKA is a good choice. They may be made by the same company and rebranded as they are very similar. Now, after a few months after opening all CA glues will gel up in the bottle. At this point you should just by another bottle. To prep, 70% alcohol works, but rub the alcohol and then wipe off with another clean wipe.
@@telecomandorc thanks bro i truly appreciate your honesty, & time to respond 😉👍🏼💯
@@vitodambra72 You are welcome. 😎👍
Your video was very helpful, one issue I am having that I didn’t see a remedy for is; when I am using my truck and let go of the throttle the truck will creep backwards at a very slow rate. Do u have any advice on that?
You may need to pair the esc and Tx to set the end-points. What esc do you have?
@@telecomandorc Hobbywing QuicRun Fusion Pro FOC 2-in-1 ESC & Motor System (2300Kv)
@@IanG1978 I just finished a build and had to set the throttle end points. The video will be up in 20 minutes or less. But try it out as that may be what you need to do. Here is the link:
th-cam.com/video/OolNKjwKJ7w/w-d-xo.html
I have problems with going reverse, do you know the problem?
Check the Tx and make sure it is not at 0%.
Also, check the esc and make sure you are not in race mode. Race mode disables reverse.
Hows the battery life ? Mine seem to drain really quickly. Ill put brand new batteries (Panasonic)from dollar tree but that shouldn't matter. But put them in a day before and didn't use till next day and ran two tanks in a nitro buggy maybe an hour and went from 5.5 to 4.6
Pretty good. I use Kirkland batteries. The way to go is really the rechargeable, but I do not carry charging gear so I just carry Kirkland's.
@@telecomandorc kewl thanks
@@kiethpederson7558 My pleasure.
I use panasonic eneloop recgargeable batteries and they last long
@@edmundb9025 Good choice. I picked some up for my mini-z it they do well.
I have a custom project that I want to use a ground remote system on. I need 3 channels. Do you mine making a video of how to configure and use the third channel? I am not a RC guy. Not much in depth info on 3rd channel capabilities.
I'll try to get it by this weekend.
what can I do if everything is calibrated but the motor does not run backwards? Thanks for this Video🤝
You got me there. It that point, check the Tx and make sure the reverse is set to 50% or 100%. Just make sure it is not at 0% in the settings. Hopefully it is not an esc issue.
@@telecomandorc Thanks. Reverse was set to 0% 😅
@@cloud_rider69 ... To be honest, that was my last guess. 😅 I was really puzzled so I took a shot from the hip on that one. I am glad that was it.
I have a used 3pv with two t-fhss receivers coming. Is there a way to factory reset the transmitter?
To delete the models, or to bind a new different model Rx to an existing model name in the Tx?
You can delete the model or you can go back into the link mode and select the other Rx system you want to bind and bind it.
@@telecomandorc So, I can just reset each model that might be stored in the 3pv? I assume the previous owner will not bother to do so.
@@PsychoticBovine I hope he doesn't. You should ask first. Joke. And, yes, you can just reset them.
Can u help me out I have throttle going to my car and brakes but when I try and go into reverse it sometimes works sometimes doesn’t
This is usually a Tx and ESC pairing issue. Not sure what ESC you are running, but try to set the throttle/reverse/neutral end points.
What lipo can be used with this ?
Any Tx lipo such as ProTek 6.6V PTK-5188 or the Futaba version or any flat pack. Just make sure it is a radio (Tx) and not receiver (Rx) pack.
Hi, my car is pulling to the right how can I sort it with that transmitter?
Use the "Trim" and set it to the left to offset. Now, this only works if it pulls right all of the time. If it tracks straight at low speeds and pulls right at high speeds, it could be a diff. problem, tires, dog bones, bearings, or something of the nature.
Can I do 4ws with the 203 rx or do I need the 304?
The 203 rx can do it. You only need one free channel and it has 3ch. You just have to go into the tx settings to mix it. Now, I do not know if you can use 4ws independently. But you can mix them.
Would anyone be able to tell me why my throttle doesn’t work I have the same controller as this and I get no throttle control
When you hit the brake, does it run (reverse maybe), and when you hit throttle does it stop?
If it does in reverse when you hit reverse and stops when throttle, reverse channel 2. It show then stop when you hit brake/reverse, and accelerate when you input throttle. It will run in reverse... then you will have to program your esc to rotate the motor in the opposite direction... so CW to CCW or vice versa. Also, check the esc to make sure you are not in race mode (Frw/Brake) and switch it to Frw/Brake/Rev.
Hopefully this video is helpful:

Does this have a steering speed setting on it??
It has an expo setting to adjust the responsiveness.
@@telecomandorcthat’s what you were talking about at 19 minutes right? I noticed the problem being twitchy in the corners I just got this remote to solve this exact issue as I’m wobbling at top speed mid turn
@@Stoned_Sparky Oh, that sounds more like a bad servo or Rx. I have only had this happen with a bad servo or the TSM (Traxxas) or stabilizers enabled in different models. I have not had this happen with my Futaba but I never run any gyro or stabilizers. If you have a gyro, turn it off and see what it does.
@@telecomandorc it’s a r203gf receiver I didn’t think it had a gyro and the servo is a box shock sr10 servo maybe it could be weak? I had a guy at my track say it’s the steering speed it’s too fast we race pavement oval asphalt if that helps
@@telecomandorc we are making turns at like 30mph banked asphalt oval maybe the servo can’t handle that speed?
I want to put all my mini z race cars on this. transmitter how can i?
We have not had mini z racing here since shutdown. Check out MiniZ Rich. He has some cool stuff: th-cam.com/video/BJr4AlMQdZk/w-d-xo.html
