Hey Adam did you run your system in hrs mode?

one of my friends has one and he has had shut down problems. he runs a futaba 9560 servo a Q2 and a personal trans. he also has the new 3pks. his brother has the same running gear but the older 3pk and has no problems in hrs mode.

I've been running mine for ~2 weeks in a 3PK Super, HRS mode, Airtronics Servo, Novak GTX. No shutdowns, glitches, twitches, etc. Very happy with the system so far...

Davepull,

Yes I ran it in HRS mode.

9550 Servo
Novak GTX
Personal Transponder
No reciever pack

Has he tried PPM mode? I am not positive, but it might help.

yes his works fine in ppm mode.

Adam which radio are you using? the silver 3pk or the new black 3pks. because his brother uses the older silver 3pk in hrs mode works perfect. and he has the new black 3pks has to use ppm mode

I've only used it in 6-cell so far. At least one other at our track is using HRS in 4-cell 12th scale on-road.

Has anyone used this system in 4 cell - 12th scale without a receiver pack? Any issues with not using the receiver pack?

Thanks

I ran it this past weekend in 12th scale on-road. Ran 19T without a receiver pack in HRS Mode using a KO Digital servo and Keyence Rapida speedo.

No problems at all.

Is this available anywhere in the US right now? Does it have an antenna wire or not? I have seen pictures of it both ways.

Thanks.

Could you tell me how long the antenna wire is please?

Also, Ive noticed that the few US stores I do order from don't have it in stock - do you know of anywhere it is available to buy (anywhere in the world) right now??

thanks.

Anyone got any advice or instruction on the mod to locat the aerial through the Futaba hole? Can you just open up the module and extend the wire to the aerial then thread it through or is there more to it?
