4 of 6 Ch. Transmitter??
« on: April 12, 2009, 07:21:39 pm »
Hi,
 :-) :-)I am looking into the purchasing of one of the above. My existing TX is a 3 Ch Zebra. I am not looking for anything fancy just functional so can anyone please give me a recommendation.
I am tracking a few on Ebay at the moment but cannot make up my mind.
Many thanks. Bernard. :-))

I have several Futaba Skysport 4's, cant fault them.
Cheap now and use single conversion crystals.

Hi Bernard.
The 2,4ghz is a new technology . In stead of using crystals to give you your small piece of band with the new 2.4ghz mate /bond the tx and rx together. In doing this the rx only looks for a signal from it bonded transmitter and ignores the rest.

if you are getting a new set Id buy 2.4ghz .have a look at the DX5 more functions than you will probably ever need ,ive used one for Aero boats and rockcrawler cars can not fault them .and no worrying about crystals .
