3PK can be complicated enough taht I start a new model by doing a full model reset. Copy one you're havung probs with to an unused model. Then do a reset where you were. Set it back up in this same model and see if you still have the prob.

Something may be altered in one of the upper level menus that you're not aware of. This sets everything back to defaul so you can re-try and see if it solves prob. Seen it work more than once.
Dear Duster_360, as a newbie in RC car hobby, i owned a GT2 and a futaba 3pk transmitter. Currently, using 2.4G module for my GT2 with mixed servo. I replaced my steering servo with Hitec digital servo and for the throttle i stil using the stock analog servo. Problem is i don't know what mode to set for my transmitter. PPM, PCM or HRS?? For sure I can not use HRS cause i used mixed type of servo. How about PCM or PPM? Which one to use in order to use fail safe or ABS?

My new Hitec digital servo make noise when urn ON. Is that normal?

I do also use my futaba 3pk to control my electric power RC car using a FM module. Which mode should i set ? PCM or PPM? Can i set ABS and fail-safe Its is using a normal analogue servo.

By the way, i bought the 3pk secondhand or used and it comes with a LIPO battery (11.1V) is it ok? Will it damage my transmitter?

Thanks guys.
