Everybody is telling me that channel 1 should be steering and channel 2 throttle, so I have set up the downloadable model that way. If you need to make that change yourself, you can do it in the MIXER screen. Just long-press and MOVE and then roll the mixer line up or down to the new channel with the jog wheel.

Another great video. This radio has so much potential for those of us who run our cars in different ground niches. I mainly bash and do speed runs (100+ mph cars), but I also dabble in Rock Crawlers. Those applications have VERY different radio setups that the MT12 can master with ease. I think we've all just scratched the tip of the iceberg for what we can make these radios do.

I have watch this video lots of times. I’m trying to find the programming of the 2 steering trim. The first is the weight. How far I can turn left to right. The second switch is suppose to control the trim as if your car is off center and you can adjust trim to make go straight. Did I miss this in video The reason I’m asking you is I messaged birdwell but no response months ago. U have a buggy. How are you adjusting trim to make car go straight Any info is great appreciated I have been racing my buggy with this issue but you can only adjust so much in the servo

FYI, I.C. (internal combustion/gas/petrol/nitro) RC vehicles often require a feature called 'idle-up' when starting the engine which opens the throttle by a set amount, once the engine is started and comes up to temperature you turn off idle up. It's usually as simple as adjusting the minimum throttle position based on a switch position. I.C. RC vehicles, and also to some extent electric vehicles usually have a 'slack' area between idle throttle and when the brakes start to work, to get a more responsive brake and with more trigger resolution, it's often useful to make the trigger 'skip' the idle range of the servo immediately when the brake is used, usually by adjusting the reverse/brake servo range from say -20% to -100% instead of -0% to -100%. More videos showing how to setup I.C. engine vehicles with edge TX I'm sure many would find useful. Also, perhaps grab an RC tank and show how to configure the MT12 for that type of model too.
@JoshuaBardwell
@JoshuaBardwell 6 месяцев назад
How does the controller know the difference between braking and reverse?
@TurboDrifterZar
@TurboDrifterZar 6 месяцев назад
​@@JoshuaBardwellfor electric vehicles braking and reverse are managed by the speed controller (some higher end speed controllers don't have reverse) But for speed controllers with the reverse function, if you push full brake, let trigger go to the neutral position, and then push forward again, the vehicle will move in reverse. OR some allow you to have 50% of your trigger travel be brake, and the next half of the range be reverse.
@dr0n3droid
@dr0n3droid 6 месяцев назад
​@@JoshuaBardwellESC will brake/reverse when channel goes negative. Back emf determines whether it's brake or reverse. If you wanna go all Steve McQueen, double tap&hold rev. when you're just past 90° with steering at full deflection. You may have a 70/30-50/50 switch on the Traxxas Tx which physically moves the potentiometer location to maintain neutral position while adjusting throttle to brake ratio. Wondering how M12 handles this. Given the infinite capabilities of edgeTx, I'm curious to see how they configured the trigger adjustment mechanism.
@JoshuaBardwell
@JoshuaBardwell 6 месяцев назад
I understand how the ESC distinguishes back vs. reverse. I just don't see how that distinction could be passed to the controller. So if you wanted some kind of different behavior like, full throttle on reverse, but limited throttle on brake, I don't see how you could do that without modifying the ESC.

Hi there, i just bought it becaus i fly drones and drive RC Crawler. In the Droneworld i used the TX16s and i was very Happy with it. So i loved to see this Radio coming. Now i love to see that you make cool Settings Videos with your Edge TX Skills. Mabey you can do some cool things for RC Crawler. We use Winches and locking unlocking Diffs Lights and so on ;) I just set up my TRX4m with a small Spektrum DSM2 Receiver and it worked. Expo on the Gascurve worked really good for this small car using a Hobbywing 1080 as ESC. With Groundvehicles and this Radio u will open a whole new World. I love to see Bardwell in it with Edge TX and the MT12;) Great starting Videos for the MT12. Thanks alot and go ahead like that^^
@mrkazman
@mrkazman 6 месяцев назад
Very cool! I'm willing to bet that diff locks, winches etc. will use up a lot of your radio's channels. I might suggest that you use the same channel, jsut different falues, to trigger different events on the car. e.g. use channel 4 value 25% for Winch In, and Ch.4 75% for Winch Out. Similarly you could use differenc channel values on the same channel to open or close different diffs. That said, this is going to need some logic on the car-side to un-mix those channels into their correct functions. I think that's how the Arrma diff brains work.
@Braindog
@Braindog 6 месяцев назад
@@mrkazmanThank you. You gave me new ideas;) However, I will mount the 2 switches in the front of the handle for the diffs. You can then see directly from the switches whether the diff is open or closed. The idea of ​​percents on a channel could be used to switch LEDs. This remote control opens up completely new possibilities in the RC car area. Lets find new Ways ;)
@DanPRC
@DanPRC 4 месяца назад
Your videos on this radio has been the most helpful for me! Thank you very much!! I do have a question about your brake adjustment. The adjustment you did is more so a reverse than a brake. A brake adjustment would be when the trigger is released…x>0 on the graph. Is there a way to put this on a knob? This would basically be like adding an adjustment drag brake.

Hello. Thanks for your very useful how to for the MT12. I use all 5 trim switches for steering rate, forward rate , brake rate, stearing expo and forward expo. The LEDs for the throttle i configured in orange when throttle is blocked and off when thottle is no blocked. I see nothing of the LEDs when i race with my touring car i look straigt to my car. I use the 3 position switch for the LCD backlight for backlight off, half and full. I put in the mini joystick on the bottom of the MT12 and i use it to trigger and reset the timer and adjust subtrim for steering.. I have split steering in left and right via logical switches to slow down the steering when i need. arminRC have a nice how to for this. And i dismounted the original steering wheel on the MT12 and put on a drift wheel with much offset for 1/10 touring cars. Thats feels very nice.

Thanks for this video. Just picked up the MT12. Most of the higher end TX's I have had over the years have had trim for steer and throttle and dual rate (think you are calling it wgt) switches for each channel at easy access points. Going to dive deep this weekend...but I would love to set one up like that and have a separate switch for adjustable drag brake (auto brake on neutral throttle) without effecting overall throttle trim/endpoint fwd. Would be a game changer for race days. Assume this is all possible?

Default with throttle channel 1 steering on channel 2 trim is T2 and you can just leave trim to on, if you swap channels so 1 is St, 2 is thr (like most surface setups) then you’ll need to set as per the tutorial set trim to TH,

I have a mix to run two escs together. Im having trouble trying to make T4 be a 3 position switch. Centre being both esc's running together, click down to just have feont motor running, click up to just have rear motor running. T3 to do the same but in 5% increments. Everything ive tried just makes it a momentary switch and not fixed position.
@JoshuaBardwell
@JoshuaBardwell 5 месяцев назад
This is doable but complicated. Since you want both T3 and T4 to manipulate the same parameter, I would start with a global variable eg 0 = 50/50, 100 = all front, -100 = all rear. Then both T3 and T4 can modify the global variable and all the resulting mixes will work. Next I would build the mixing. In the Mixer screen I would set up mixer lines based on the GV so that the output to the ESC's was as desired. I don't know exactly how you would do that though because I don't know how the signal is sent to the ESC's. Like, is there a differential that you're modifying to change the front/rear balance? Or are you sending two signals to two separate ESC's? Finally I would set up logcial switches to allow the trim switches to adjust the GV as desired.

@@JoshuaBardwell An esc is plugged into two separate channels and mixed to work as one. On my Sanwa MT44 I have it set up exactly as I described wanting the MT12 set up. Currently I have a printed wheel on the P2 dial of the MT12 that is mixed to work both esc's at center, rolled all the way back it just drives the front motor, and all the way up just drives rear motor. Anything between those points is the throttle bias between motors. But I wanted that P2 dial as a 4WS wheel, and the T4/T3 trims to work as I have them on my Sanwa. I thought by using Google Bard I would have the answers in no time, but A.I. seems to to be lost on it 😄 It's given me many options to try, but none have worked so far.
@JoshuaBardwell
@JoshuaBardwell 5 месяцев назад
If you have it working already on the P2 dial then it shouldn't be too much work (for somebody, anyway) to transfer that function to the trim switches. You need to use the methods shown in this video to 1) change the MIXER lines to be based on a Global Variable instead of the S2 pot, and then 2) use Special Functions to cause the trim switches to adjust the GV as desired.

@thatoneguy2756 27 дней назад
This is a great explanation on how this radio works, but the way its being setup here is not ideal for a surface race radio. One switch for trim, one for expo (not weight whatever that means) epa should only be able to be adjusted while on the bench as its never adjusted by a quick switch on a racing scenario. Thats a great way to hurt the servo by accident. There is no nood for throttle epa on a quick switch either. Set it up once and leave it. Sure you can fine tune the braking epa but its not gonna need constant fiddling. This radio has potential but i don't see it becoming a popular item at any tracks. Now making expo on a quick switch ...one for throttle, one for steering could be extremely convenient.

There's no gyro on the receiver for steering. It corrects your steering when you are going fast . So if you're going 45mph threw a grass park it helps from flipping over or going 65mph down a road you don't loose control. It's a real bummer that the elrs receivers don't have it. Traxxas and Arrma have it standard on their top cars.

I don't know how the quality of the MT12 will hold up against a radio costing three or four times as much, although I think Radiomaster quality does hold up. I do know that a TON of people want the features this radio offers and don't want to pay $600 to get it.

This thing is just way too f'ing complicated and has an absolutely AWFUL UI. If they really wanted to make it easy to setup, there should be an app to run on your Mac or PC and then plug the USB port into it... or save it to a file you can put on the SD card. I'd go even farther and make it possible to use a phone app to set it up via Bluetooth... but that's probably asking too much.
