Yea I would think so. Just make sure ur setting are where u want. And end points and all that
So any tips for this transmitter? tia
I am, very confusing for a novice lol. Just need to sort the steering, pulling loads to the right, Can anyone tell me how to do the steering trim? Manuals a bit useless
If it's pulling really far to the right, you should adjust the servo arm first. Take it off, turn the car on, keep the TX steering wheel center and make sure when you put it back on, it's at as close to 90° as possible to the servoI am, very confusing for a novice lol.

Thanks so much, Yas. It's causing me to adjust the wheel when driving to turn left by about 3mm or so, so not massive, I'll have a go later and let you know. Thanks again.If it's pulling really far to the right, you should adjust the servo arm first.

There are three types of steering adjustment on the DX5 TXs - sub trim (in the menu), regular trim (B switch) and travel (in the menu)
I adjust the sub trim first. This moves the whole range of the servo and so it also affects the travel as well as the trim
E.g. when you set a higher R value, the servo will centre more to the right, increase the travel to the right, and decrease the travel to the left
When I set the sub trim, I ignore the trim (straight line tracking) for the time being and focus on getting equal travel left and right. Doing it this way should also begin to roughly centre the car in a straight line
Once you've gotten equal travel left and right, you should then adjust the regular trim until it tracks perfectly straight
Lastly you can adjust the steering travel (i.e. dual rates/end points) in the menu. Do this by lifting the nose of the car up and adjusting until each side stops the servo from overstretching and whining when you full lock L or R. It's easier to just adjust both L & R at the same time. L & R values might not even need to be different as you've already set an equal travel when you did the sub trim
It's a lot to take in but I hope this helps
I must be thick lol. E.g. want to assign a button to say turn on the lights on my roc, can it be done? If so it doesn’t explain in plain English how to do it. Try gonna be trial and error I think :-(
Yes, it can be done. However, you'll need a receiver controlled switch, like this one here:
All radio manuals are pretty much that way. It's more intuitive to play and learn your settings from trial and error. Learning the menu and GUI etc. And of course those here at AF will help. All digital upgrade radios have a learning curve. Because they are feature ladened. A plus. RTR radios are lame and limited. Moving up from them to decent digital radio sets usually gets one frustrated in the beginning. You are not alone.
If you're talking about what I think you are, you can check what it means in the menu. Scroll down to "settings", then click "trim" (43:02 in the part 2 video that I linked)
