Hey There
Ok if you flip Asp over you will see the labelling for the receiver. There are V0,V+CH1 and then nothing until CH7. Of course when you plug in the receiver cable the wires can only be ONE way.
There is also the new wiki site for reference. Sorry as the old Wiki was attacked by spambots and had to be disabled. The site is here:
http://rctanksaustralia.com/guidesNow as to the wires:
V0 - Black
V+ - Red
Channel 1 Steering White
Channel 2 Throttle Yellow
Channel 3 Gun elevation Orange
Channel 4 Turret Green
Channel 5 Switching Blue
Channel 6 Sound control Purple
Channel 7 Weapons Grey
Asp follows the Tamiya pattern of RTEA (Rud, Thr, Ele, Ail) which is the same for the RC5H ....
Ok the question about the flash was first asked here by Gra but there have been so many posts even I can't find it. You use the two outside pins of the three connector (the middle is blank). Again turn Asp over - by convention all V0 pads are Round or oval, V+ pads are square or rectangular and signal pads are octagons. The negative wire for your LED goes to the top pin the positive wire for your led goes to the bottom pin (signal pin) (closest to the recoil connector)
Ok as you point out the last part isn't about Asp but more about your radio. Any instruction manual for Asp is only a few lines.
Set sticks up on channels 1-4
Channel 1 Steering White
Channel 2 Throttle Yellow
Channel 3 Gun elevation Orange
Channel 4 Turret Green
Setup switches (as many as your radio will allow) on CH5 and CH7 such that they can be toggled from neutral (1500us) to either +100% (2000us) or -100% (1000us) and set a pot to CH6 at about 65% of available range.
This is more of how well one knows their own radio and not something that can be featured in an Asp manual
At startup have all channels in neutral (though not critical for CH6 if controlling volume)
To turn on flip/toggle a CH5 switch from neutral (1500us) to either 100 or -100% - to turn off it is long switch to +100%.
To fire Main gun it is whatever switch you have set to +100% on CH7
to fire MG it is whatever switch you have set to -100% on CH7.
That is the basics for operation. Problem with the factory 9X is that you are not able to assign all of those lovely switches to anything useful. I'm not sure that the factory 9X firmware is even able to make these edits.
I will not have a factory 9X till next week and I shall have a look and post back here results.
Also since your Asp went I have included operation on 4 ch and 6 ch. IF you got a programming dongle then the upcoming V5 update will allow for a very simple no-brainer plug in and go 4 channel operation mode.
