newnitroer Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Hi, So my S-Maxx is coming tomorrow and right now I cant afford the traxxas TQ radio system and really don't want to run it using the old 27mhz system. My TF-40 TX and RX from my bullet still works fine and its 3 channel (I plan on adding the reverse) so can I use the TF-40 system with my S-Maxx?.

Gavster29 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Yes it will work fine, any transmitter and receiver will work and if it's a 3 channel reverse will work fine also.Sent from my TA-1033 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newnitroer Posted September 18, 2017 Author Share Posted September 18, 2017 (edited) so I installed it the only thing I'm worried about is the antenna only just about comes out of the body shell is that going to shorten my range or cause any connection issues or is that that the normal height for a 2.4 antenna on a S-MAXX.

Smoothybb Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 2.4 are short anyway. Don't think mine makes it out of the shell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No..but I'd put a tube over it to protect it Edited September 19, 2017 by evssv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newnitroer Posted September 21, 2017 Author Share Posted September 21, 2017 hahaha lol there is a tube over it and I just brought some black caps for top of the tube which will be going on after the LHS has given the car back to me on Monday (they are braking it/tuning it for me). I was holding it for demo purposes otherwise u wouldn't of been able to see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
