Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart. - **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/GB-3113-0004-0001:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.) - **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there. - **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works) - **Payment methods, purchase orders, policies and contact details:** https://core-electronics.com.au/llms.txt ## Description With an ergonomic design and built-in channel mixing, the Pistol Grip goBILDA® Element-4 Radio Control System allows you to control your project wirelessly across 4 channels of operation! ## Steering-Optimized Form Factor The transmitter’s handy pistol grip design brings comfort to control. You can even operate your applications with only one hand! ## Four Channels, Infinite Options The first four numbered channels of the receiver are tied to specific control devices in the transmitter. - **Channels 1 and 2** are tied to a **steering wheel** (Channel 1) and **trigger** (Channel 2). Both offer proportional control. You can use the wheel to steer a skid-steer chassis while using the trigger for throttle control. The **built-in channel mixing** combines the two channels’ inputs to allow you to control the speed and direction of each side of a chassis! Channel mixing can also be disabled to facilitate Ackermann-style steering (common in cars). Whatever your steering style, it’s easier to keep a chassis moving straight with this transmitter’s wheel and trigger than it is with a transmitter that uses a single gimbal for steering and throttle. You can even use **trim buttons** to adjust either channel’s signal. - **Channel 3** is tied to a button that outputs a **different signal** depending on whether or not it is being pressed. This makes it excellent for controlling a servo intended to jump between two positions. You can also use Channel 3 with the [PWM Switch](https://core-electronics.com.au/dual-5a-pwm-switch.html) (SKU: 3108-0102-0201) to apply an “off” or an “on” status to two outputs simultaneously. - **Channel 4** is tied to a button that cycles through **three output signals**. The [Servo Travel Tuner](https://core-electronics.com.au/servo-travel-tuner.html) (SKU: 3109-0002-0001) is a perfect way to dial-in the exact positions you want. And if you use a [PWM Switch](https://core-electronics.com.au/dual-5a-pwm-switch.html) on Channel 4, you can cycle through three dual-output statuses: both off, one on / one off, and both on. All four channels can be **reversed** via the REV button to provide exactly the input-output interaction you want from their control! ## Element Receiver The included [Element Receiver](https://core-electronics.com.au/element-receiver.html) is available individually. It’s also the same receiver used in the six-channel [Element-6 Radio Control System](https://core-electronics.com.au/element-6-radio-control-system-mode-2.html). (The Pistol Grip System uses four of the receiver's channels while offering advantages in steering.) Regardless of your transmitter’s style or channel count, the Element Receiver’s M.BUS output is available for usage. The M.BUS output is functionally the same as an S.BUS output. ### Included - Transmitter (requires four AA batteries - not included) - [Element Receiver](https://core-electronics.com.au/element-receiver.html) (SKU: 3112-0006-0001) ### Downloads - [ User Manual ](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/3113-0004-0001-user-manual_20294813354.pdf) - [ Receiver STEP File ](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/3112-0006-0001_34821cae2f6.zip) ### Specs | Radio Frequency | 2.4GHz | |---|---| | Range | Up to 400 Meters (1312 Feet) with direct line of sight. | | Receiver Input Voltage | 6V nominal (3.5-7.4V) | ## Images - [Product image 1](https://core-electronics.com.au/media/catalog/product/G/B/GB-3113-0004-0001-1.jpg)
