I don't know if I understand You . I will write here what are the possibilities of operating channel 3:

- use trim (steering/throttle/ch3/dualrate), set required step (1...200) and use trim buttons to move channel value "trim step" left or right (value is in range -100...100). It is also possible to use that rotate dial to change value when value is showed at display. It is also possible to define what long-press of trim button will do. There are 2 possibilities, one will reset channel to centre and second will set value to full left/right, depending on pressed button.

- use trim and set it to MOMentary. Then when nothing is pressed, channel value is at centre. While holding one trim button, channel value is set to full left/right depending on holded button.

- use key (for example CH3 button) as switch. Each press of button will switch value from left to right or back (this is what was at original firmware).

- use key as MOMentary. Channel value is changed to opposite side only while holding that key. And to this code I added special handling for those who will modify CH3 button to 3-pos switch, so there will be 3 positions left/centre/right. But I didn't modified my radio so this is not tested yet.

- use trim and key. Use trim buttons to set channel value to left/right (set step to 200 to have always full left/right) and use key (eg. CH3 button) to set channel value to centre.

This all is assignable at radio in "key mapping" where You assign functions to trims/keys.

I wish I would have been more active on the forums this weekend. I could have done some testing yesterday.

Anyway, I reflashed to 2.0 and can't wait to give it a rip on the track. The servo speed stuff is awesome.

Got the bearing mod done this morning, makes a big improvement over stock. Lipo is on it's way, will be the next mod. Now to save some pennies to get the bored to update the firmware.

On a side note, has anyone had trouble its the trigger sticking at full throttle?

I don't think so. It is not possible with stock HF module and receiver. It would require to change HF TX module for another one with telemetry (for example from FrSky) and use corresponding receivers.

I guess we need to add the link to post #1486 on page 100 every so often for people to be able to find it easier.

Same here...I live in Aldergrove BC. I'm looking for someone local who can upgrade mine as well. Maybe we could team up and buy what we need and try it ourselves. I've got a decent soldering iron and I've read the instructions but I'm worried I might screw something up. I'm no computer programmer.
