Russ80 Posted November 14, 2015 Author Share Posted November 14, 2015 thinking about upgrading to a 3 0r 4 channel tx, looking for a second hand set up if poss. and using fail safe through 3rd channel so I could use remote engine cut off. or is it just as good using them through a 2 channel. someone recommended a super bee, but cant find them in the uk.

fletch101 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I bought a kill kit off model sport which is great. It cuts off when either remote or radio gear goes wrong and also has voltage sensor and also it cuts on and off using button on channel 3 on my fly sky remote also has an led on a wire to mount somewhere visible if neededI used a failsafe I already had from my nitro years old Used both as even if engine is killed. If a baja is flat out. It needs a long time too coast too a stop Battery box gets abit tight as that point but all went in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jolly_roger_uk Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 if I remember correctly, apply break then press and hold the little button on the receiver to set fail safe positions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 i got killer bee switch.. great kit with led,buzzer low voltage and radio glitch cut off..also a port on there for a temp sensor so if too hot will cut it off too... BUT when it shuts of the engine it still allows you to control the car~(brake and steer) this can also kill the engine using your third channel switch in your remote..... £56 off flea bay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John_RCModelz Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 I think Chrisps got a killer bee lol and Lee is spot on with setting up the fail safe on flysky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom3624 Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Superbee from Killer Bee is great. Don't forget the failsafe needs power to work, the killswitch can work without - no power and it cuts the ignition. You need both set up properly - failsafe to full brakes, then with the kill switch on top - should be pretty safe - just 'the nut behind the wheel ! Kent from Killer Bee gives excellent support - as does Jolly Rodger on the other one. Al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
