futaba 3vc help needed

[rondoolaa]

hi,

i'm asking this for a friend as i tried to help him last week but couldnt suss it out,

he has a futaba 3vc and both him and his son race the same car with the same handset,

instead of going into the settings each time and adjusting the epa / atl he wants to set up the "knob" as the adjuster so he can speed up or slow down his car just by twisting the "knob" to the desired value for him or his son,

on the 3vcs its very easy, you go into menu 2 then func-dl then adjust "knob" settings until it reads "atl"

but on the 3vc i cant suss it out and hes new to rc so hes even having problems even with the manual instructions,

if someone knows how to set the "knob" up so it adjusts top end speed then please reply in detail how to do it, stating what the screen should read and what to press in each step,

he and i would appreciate the info,

thankyou

Why dosen't he use a different model memory ?

He can set the the epa/atl as he wants on each model memory and when he as to switch the radio from father mode to son mode he only has to change the selected memory (push 3 buttons).

Here is the manual for the 3PK, which is the pistol version of the 3VC.

Try page 34, I think it should answer the problem. HTH

Thanks for the replies,

I didn't think of setting 2 models, doh, will try that Friday when I see him,

I tried by using the manual as he has the original 3vc manual,

I looked at the 3pk manual but it's not that one that's the same, it's the 3pjs,

Available here,

3pk is like the 3vcs,

3pjs has the screen overlays like the 3vc,


Appreciate both your answers and Thankyou both for your help anyway,

Hopefully we will suss it out, :-)
