atom3624 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Need to know the radio sets you're using - Tx / Rx. Should be able to go at least 100 - 120 metres without problem. 2.4 GHz? 27 M.Hz? Al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atom3624 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Silly question time ... Tx batteries OK? Car OK? When charge runs low, then distance is one of the first things affected. Are you running near any remote open / close doors? Al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al. hi i have charged the bats in controller fully . and the hump pack is on charge full amount. my mta4 used all the same bats and had no issue . its so weird this is in a open area .. field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom3624 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Shouldn't happen. Must be a broken wire somewhere - antenna on Rx perhaps? Either that or you're running above an iron ore deposit! It is strange. I'm going for a broken / loose wire. Can you try re-binding? Perhaps .... Al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al. its doin it on both cars . as i run them in the same area i used to take the mta4 which had no issues .. id be lucky for them to go as far as half a pitch over the field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom3624 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 If its the same Tx, is the Antenna connected? Don't know the radio and 2.4G.Hz don't really have antenna's like the good 'ol 27 M.Hz did ... Something's odd. Look for 'common denominator' ... Al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atom3624 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I suppose you could: Remove the external failsafe. Find instructions / download if necessary for the radio set you have. Reset the failsafe as per instructions - yes, many are built in. Test it works without firing up. Now, test it out. Never know, might work. Good luck. Al.

Demonchu Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Remember reading a previous thread about a guy who had all sorts of problems after installing a fail safe when there was one already fitted.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjsparks Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 try in another area to narrow your problem down to controller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
