Mike, how would I setup an RCRx so that channels 1 and 2 are mixed servo channels so that I can control a two channel motor controller such as the Sabertooth 2x25 http://www.dimensionengineering.com/products/sabertooth2x25 ? Is it possible to do on the RCRx side? Usually this is done in the handheld radio in traditional RC controllers.

Thanks,
Jason

How about channel mixing so you can drive with one stick? It's sometimes referred to ask tank or elevon mixing.

Hi,

I guess you would use the Differential setter (there is an example tank app
which uses differential setter and a joystick controller see DifferentialRCRx),
but the electrical connections to the driver board are out of my knowledge
area. Over to you.

Cheers.

I just need to mix two servo channels. Would you use the differential setter with servosetters?
