Am a little confused on its operation. Booklet says switches can be in TX or TRX. Yet to fire flash it seems they have to be Rx/Trx? Is this right?

I'm sorry, I don't entirely understand your question- hopefully this answers it though!There are 3 options, "off, tx, trx" Off, of course, is "off." "TX" is what you want to have the trigger on your camera set to, for lack of better wording, it's the "transmitter" switch. Going off of that, the "TRX" is the "receiver" and it what you want the triggers on your flashes to be set to. Hope that helps!

Set the device that is attached to the camera to TX and set the one attached to the flash as TRX. Set the flash settings as it were attached to the camera.

I don't have that particular flash, but if recievers and transmitters are on the same channel the flash should fire. If you have a simple transceiver the flashes will not recieve any of Auto (TTL, HSS, etc) functions from the camera. They will have to be set manually. Another option is to use the built in optic trigger. There is some control from the camera but is limited to line of sight.

Yes, I've read that sb600/900/910 function manually on the camera and using some wireless triggers, even cheap cowboy studio ones. I use a yongnuo st-e3-rt on my x-t1 and to fire a canon 600 EXRT flash and previously used it on the x-e2 so system is versatile though you might want to go to your camera shop with your flash to try it out first if you have other models of flash.

As far as I know you can use the mini TT1 and a flex TT5 in "standard mode" to trigger anything that will accept the pocket wizard triggering cable or hot shoe cable. You have to use both together the cable is routed from the TT5 to whatever you are trying to trigger. Don't know if the elinchrom D-Lite 4 will accept a hotshoe cable if so it should work. I use Bowens lights with built pocket wizard compatible receivers.

Your check list is correct but I would suggest the following changes: 1. purchase pocketwizard triggers (pocketwizard x10) and not the cowboystudio tiggers. I have used the cowboystudio triggers and found them problematic. 2. purchase a higher quality 8ft or 9ft air cushion light stand as the unit is heavy and the wider base of the 8ft and 9ft stand will better stabilize the strobe. you'll need the extra height if you are using the strobe as your key light You will need to purchase the Fotodiox Pro 48" Octagn Softbox with the bowens speedring

These are both a flash trigger and wireless shutter release. They work with any flash period. The only thing that makes them differ is the shutter release function....the cable wiring the trigger to camera shutter differs from camera to camera. But the flash trigger function works with any hotshoe, and those designed for Nikon & Canon all speak together. But there is no ttl-type functionality...only manual. It's just a trigger.

Never run The Traxxas, I usually run Castle od Tenkin. But I use the race pro in my Axial Exo buggy Im geared for speed and it hast failed me once. Running 2s Lippo could run 3s but I have all I need on 2s. The SCT race Pro I picked because of cooling, I had problems with too many other motors over heating in my Exo. SInce I switched I havent over heated once. I also like the fact that Castle makes a Castle link connector that stays open for you to plug into with the field programer or from fied via usb to Computer for adjustments. On my Tenkin FXR is not as easy.

Will it fire? Yes. Will it work in full TTL Auto Mode? I don't think so. I use these in slaved multiple flash situations and they function beautifully for that purpose. There is also a newer version of this flash but the previous version is also being sold I think. If you do buy, make sure you get the newer version. Would advise getting advice from someone who can address a solution your needs and knowledge level before you buy. Good luck!

Yeah. I use mine with remote wireless triggers all the time. I really like the flash. It works great on the hot shoe in manual or ettl and the wireless remote has only missed a couple of times but more due to the trigger than the flash. It's a solid flash

I am pretty sure that these CT 04's will work with any modern flash unit which can operate in manual mode. These units are not expected to provide any kind of TTL operation. Manual only

It should work, you may have to set the 580Ex to manual and set the RF603 swtich on 580Ex to TRX and RF603 switch on 6D to Tx/TRx

Yes, your flash will work on top, but it will not work in TTL mode. You will have to run it in manual. Which for my purposes is all I need. Hope this helps!

They only strobe. Either triple or single flash, variable speed. There is no steady on switch. I thought that was silly, but they still worked for my purposes. If you are good with electronics I'm sure you could do some re-wiring, but the wires are tiny and it's complicated.

Yes that combo should work. I haven't tried the ttl so I can't comment on that. The triggers work great with my yongnuo flashes. For the price to performance ratio they are good.

Mine too - the switch on the shifter only seems to have two contact points - Park and Reverse. I tested this switch with an Ohm meter when I installed the shifter and then again a few weeks ago, thinking I missed something on the first go around. All I have been able to determine is that Park allows the ignition circuit to engage and reverse operates the back up lights. Honestly, I am not real thrilled with my Sports Shifter for this and a few other quality issues (like reverse doesn't freely engage - almost have to ratchet into reverse, Can get "Park" to line up with the indicator but then each gear down is misaligned).Sorry wasn't more help Mine too - the switch on the shifter only seems to have two contact points - Park and Reverse.

Hi I own this flash Trigger. They are both recievers and control units. I have 4 and it doesn't matter which one I use for sending or recieving. They work great. Hope this helps. Chris

Set everything up (flash connected to NPT-04 receiver, everything turned on), and then hit the test button that's on top of the transmitter. Does the flash fire? If it does, then the transmitter is talking to the receiver, and the receiver is talking to the flash. So the problem is the camera isn't talking to the transmitter. You didn't say what camera you're using. On my Sony cameras, "wireless" is for using the pop-up flash to control and fire other flashes. You can do wireless TTL, and use the pop-up flash to be the "commander". That's what "wireless" flash mode is. Obviously that's not what you're doing. So change it to rear or fill flash mode, and see if that works.
