MIXING
Mixes can connect two servo outputs to one control input. The DX5C features preset steering mixes and one
programmable mix (Mix 0). The AUX channels can only be assigned to one mix at a time. If AUX 1, 2, or 3 is
assigned to another mix, it will not be available as a slave channel option. AUX channels 1 and 2 are not available
for use in mixes when the AVC menu in the transmitter is active.
The pre-confi gured Steering Mix options are for vehicles using two steering servos. For vehicles with servos
independently controlling front and rear wheels, four-wheel steering (4WS) offers four different mixing options on
one switch. The dual steering servo (Dual ST) mix is for vehicles with two servos working together on the front
wheels.
4WS options in the DX5C offer four different steering confi gurations using one switch; Crab, 4WS, front only, and
rear only steering.

To activate, select Inhibit and slide to select the second steering channel. Select STR > AUX 1 and slide to

Each of the four steering options each needs to be assigned to a switch position to be enabled. Crab and
4WS options also need to have rates assigned.
• Select Pos: and use the slide button to select the switch position (0-3). After the switch positions are assigned
to the steering modes, the current switch selection will be indicated with a box around the steering mode.
• For Crab and 4WS steering, a set of travel settings and a trim option for the second servo appear when the
switch position setting ( Pos: ) is assigned to a switch position. Front only and Rear only steering options do
not have rate or trim options.
1.
Use the slide button to select the travel settings, turn the wheel to adjust travel for each side individually.
Setting this value positive or negative determines the second servo direction.
2.
Use the slide button to select the Trim option. Select active ( Act ) to carry over trim settings to the mixed
