Left or Right wheel Control??
#1
Are you a lefty or righty?
I am right handed, but my left eye is dominent, so I pull a trigger(guns,radio's) with my left hand, have also used my right hand.
Question is my right finger is quicker if I pretend I am using a radio with it.
I am wondering if I should switch my M11 to the other side.
Currently I use my right hand to control steering, would that mean the M11 is currently set up for right handed use?
Since I am right handed should I control throttle with my right and steer with my left?
I know newb questions.
You will all probably say, switch it over and try it, if you do not like it, Switch it back

I'm right handed, hold the tx in my left hand and steer with my right hand.
Left handed is the opposite.
Only real way to find out is to try it left handed and see if it feels better, or more natural.....Just like you expected.

You are currently using it the "right" way for a righty. Not sure if left eye dominance would change that.
That being said, I have a friend that is left handed, but does a lot of things right handed, like rc driving and guitar playing.

I am a righty and played alot of gran turismo on ps before i started racing rc. For whatever reason i found it hard to steer with the right hand and gas/brake with the left. I switched my dx3r to left handed controls and it was much easier.

I'm right handed but, since i started racing rc cars 18 years ago, i've always felt better controlling gas with the right hand and steering with the left one.
Try it by yourself and see if it feels better for you.

I'm a lefty and hold the transmitter in my left and steer with the right. Might be because my first Tx never had the option to switch. I tried switching to the other way with my 4pk and I didn't do too well. Just didn't want to put in the effort to learn all over again.
