I flash them to get 6 or 8 channels and many cool options (slower like servo speed) out of it. Learn here how to do it: https://www.rockcrawler.de/thread/10395-flysky-gt3b-3-kanal-pistolenfernsteuerung-umbaubericht-auf-6-8-kanal-diskussione/ After flashing the remote and binding, I use this to setup the fourth channel: * Press NAME long to set channel-count. Default is 3, I set it to 6 since I use a 6-channel receiver * I used the CH3-Button on the handle, set it up with pressing REV long, enable "C" and choose channel, set MO (momentary) * Since servos are much tooo fast to look scale, I love slowing them down by pressing D/R long, choose the channel and reduce it to 20% ---- [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wing_(vehicle)
