emitter range problems
Just wondering if anybody has had emitter range problems with recent clark boards , I'm a big clark fan but recently ran into issues , with either emitter burning out or bad range, inside the house I have to drive up 10 to 15 feet to make a hit , outside in daylight, I basically have to drive on top of you , lol , I've tried everything, emitter changes , wiring , test emitters with 940 bulb and the blue bulbs , wire connection, voltage at emitter , 1.5 minimum , changing boards from one tank to another with different apple or mushroom setups, henglong, hammerhead , impact , also change of batteries from ni h to lipos, just wondering if anybody has had same problem , any help would be appreciated , thanks
Re: emitter range problems
Some of the early boards had issues but not heard complaints in last few years so thought it had been resolved.
Clark posted either on website or forums of a resistor which could be bypassed to increase range but referred to tk20 boards so don't know if same fix can be done to tk22 boards.
You say you tried a lot of IR emitters, what power rating are they? Should be 100mA upwards for best performance.

Re: emitter range problems
Thanks , I've heard of bypassing the resistor , going to try that if I can figure out which resistor it is , the bulbs I've been using are 940 clear and the blue colored bulbs
