Nick Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 I noticed the range for my TC3 isn't that far, it sort of stutters if I go to far. How do I increase range? I never actually know. Do I just need a good reciever or a transmitter too? Any suggestions on what reciever is good? Thanks, Nick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mth Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 a 40fm set will sort of increase range..you will not have as much stuttering at far distances..but your car can actually go further before starting to stutter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duff Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 i find the traxass control i have is crap gos out of range befor all my others my jagwar is ok but my best at the moment is my hitec one gos for miles so id yes get a better control system or try getting a longer antana holder so it holds it up higer.

300ZXZ31 Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Well yer it is far away, but i would never have any reason to drive that far away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mth Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 it will seem far away when your are driving an RC car because its small. but considering on the motorway at say 60mph you will do a mile every 35m per second...so thats a quarter of a mile every 11seconds if my maths is right (samari..your good at maths, is that right?) so taking an xtr/menace at 80 with them speed tuned gears or what ever should only take about 10/11 seconds....so taking a nitro, say averaging at 40mph would only take 20 seconds ish to travel 1/4 of a mile, might seem a long time when your driving but it aint really.

mth Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 20 seconds is actually quite good 1/4 mile time, I only get low 13's ← 20 secs at 40mph..but thats taking into account you are already travelling at 40mph when you enter the timegate. would probably take around 23 secs from a standing start.
