Default 600e pro 3gx manual mistake

Don't know if anyone else has run into this or even posted, but I'll put it out there. On page 23 of the manual they show servo hook ups to the 3gx unit. In the book the plugs hook up neg. on top and signal on the bottom. I plugged things in ths way and proceeded to scratch my head for 2 hours trying to figure out why everything else had power but no servos would move. I took a break to clear my head and came back to it with an open mind. I ended up flipping all the servo plugs so that signal wire was on top and neg. on the bottom........everything works !! Just thought I'd hopefully save some folks headaches.

Also, there was questions out there about 3gx compatibility with dsmx sats...........no prob they work fine.

Hope this helps.
