Re: Patience! Damned close call!

Ok, tips for good tx to rx signal.
1 keep the antinas long. Dont coil rx antina or fly with tx ant down.
2 Keep the rx and its ant away from motor wires and esc. also dont tuch ant to metal parts.
3 dont run the helis bats down too far.
4 put nicad, ni-mh, or lith batts in the tx. if lith use proper charger.
5 NEVER point the tx ant at the heli.
6 always range check befor flight. To do this power up the rx (engin off or ep motor unpluged) and leave tx antina down and walk 90 feet away to check.
7 dont fly close to any electronics that can create emf (electro magnetic feild) or transmit within the 72mhz range.
8 get a chanel scaner to make sure no one is on your chanle
9 keep xtails for more than 1 chan.
This will help keep the modle under your control.
hope this helped and happy flying, errr hoping or scooting depending on your skill level.
