Weird...I never replied on this thread...yet you say I offered you a TX...no matters...now you got one ...OK ....you have a new TX Harry...you say you have the same problems still...sounds like what you really needed is an RX or the mother board 8O

With that said...check and make sure your crystals are solidly in place...and all your plugs are plugged in well ..and take a good look at your antenna connections that are on the tank

Yes Alpha. Same problem. I'll have to find some time to look at the Rx or MFU. Work has me swamped currently.

I would say make sure of the antenna solder point...and also check the lead from the Mother board to the RX...you're getting some function but not all...so could be an intermittent signal thing ;)

PS...I know you said you charged the battery ...but try using the stock drip charger and go for four hours....the cells may not be fully saturated :D

You know what's kind of bothering me Harry.... I never posted on this thread till after I sent you the TX....It bothers me because it doesn't sound like your TX is the problem ...it sounds more like the mother board the battery or the RX :think:

Doesn't matter...didn't need that TX anyway...but in a way I feel it's a wasted effort...as my personal view after viewing your problems in depth...would be to just trash the crystal system and get a 2.4 gig rig ...they are cheap...on EBAY about 70 dollars...and it makes a world of difference

Been a while since I visited! Alpha, T.Y. sir for Everything You did. Found a 2.4Ghz conversion on Amazon finally. 5 min swap, works like a charm. This is SOOOO SATIFYING. 2+yrs later Lol. Better late than Never.
