MOA ROCK BOUNCER iS DONE! Dual TEKiN RX4 ESC’s, REAR STEER & FUTABA T4PK | RC ADVENTURES

See it move at 9:23 - I have been working like mad getting this Rock Bouncer done! Finally, my dual Tekin RX4 Element Proof Electronic Speed Controls came in, and I was able to get to work with proper mixing from my Futaba T4PK radio. I have now linked up all electronics, setup the 4WS (Rear Steer) and Independent Motor control on each axle. I can now change the speed (rotation), and power of axle axle on the fly.

Here is some info from the TEKiN website on the new RX4 Hardbox ESC: ()
"Tekin’s RX4 Brushless Sensored ESC is designed to power your chassis past any obstacle. With massive power handling capabilities, a waterproof* design and all the customization features you’d expect from a Tekin ESC; the RX4 has you covered no matter the situation. Not only reliable, this ESC has a host of built in features like a High Voltage BEC, Drag Brake, Data Logging and the ability to run either Brushed or Brushless motors. The RX4 defines versatility.
The RX4 Housing is a thick-walled, reinforced Hardbox design able to withstand the elements and rough environments that come with true Offroad adventuring.

I am powering the dual ESC setup, the dual servo setup and my receiver with dual 3s 2200mah Lipo Batteries for a total of 6s lipo - but only 11.1v going to each motor.
Later in this video I demonstrate the advantages of rear wheel steering as well as independent control of each motor. Of course, it is only an inside demonstration - and an outdoor trail video is certainly warranted in the coming weeks. I want to do something special for this rock buggy... let's see if I can pull it off!
