  1. Funny how its not mentioned anywhere on the specification for the receiver! And I quote ''Works with any RC car, truck or buggy'' Actually this is really misleading and Wheelspin models have been no help at all really! Daft thing was I was in 2 minds whether to buy the DX5C on its own and get just a standard 2 channel receiver but looking at the price for the SR6100AT on its own I thought it was a good deal as it was essentially half price. I'm a bit annoyed now as I have reinstated my original receiver and controller and now the steering isn't working right so I think I may have damaged the servo?
  2. Hi I am new to this Forum and new to RC, I recently bought an Arrma Typhon 550 Mega as I thought it was a good introduction vehicle for the price etc. Also my thinking was eventually I would like to upgrade the motor and ESC to a brushless system myself rather than buying the Typhon 3S BLX with all the kit already in. My first upgrade was to change the transmitter because from all reports the Spektrum STX2 gets pretty awful reviews. So I bought a Spektrum DX5C and it came with a SR6100AT receiver. When installing the receiver and binding with the DX5C I get terrible oscillation from the servo. At first I thought it was from the AVC (Vehicle control) but then reading the manual I noticed that it states the SR6100AT should be used with digital servos as AVC wont work properly with an analogue servo and can cause over heating. I am not sure how accurate this is and wondered if its just company speel to cover them if the servo breaks? All Arrma cars use analogue servos as far as I can see so I am surprised this receiver should only be used with digital servos? especially when both brands are owned bu Horizon hobbies! Anyway I just wondered if any one had any advice for this and if they would know if the SR6100AT is ok to be used with an analogue servo? If not my options to are either buy a new receiver or buy a new digital servo? Any advice would be greatly appreciated Thanks
