can anyone help.....i set up my telemetry and as you can see my temp sensor is placed in the motor and my rpm sensor is reading my spur gear the problem is my temp works great and is about 1 to 2 degrees off which is fine with me so thats working great... now the rpm sensor doesn't read anything the spur gear has a reflecitve sticker attached to it but i think it might be a little to far what do you guys think?

Does the dx3s have a dedicated lap timing feature that can automatically record lap times without hitting the timing button?
I'm a little confused with the 'timing' function. According to the manual, you can use it as a stop watch to time single laps, obviously just one lap, then reset, then you can time the 3rd lap.
But with the included telemetry receiver of the dx3s, there is a 'lap' input. Does this mean this dx3s can use spectrums lap timing trigger. If so, I cant see how it would be displayed on the current dx3s. Then you would have to get the electric or nitro telemetry combo, which defeats the purchase of getting this radio system if lap timing is an important

I am 99% sure that you need the hand-held unit to do lap timing, but I'll check into that further.
Update-
Confirmed. The hand held unit is needed for the lap timer and it can record up to 99 laps (I believe). The DX3S does not have a lap counting feature in and of itself.is not compatible with the lap timer.

Hi,I have a few questions I just picked up my DX3S today,now the SR3300T when binding it says in the instructions power it up through any port except any of the three top ones.Correct?
Then when done binding where do you power it through? The binding port?
And the little antenna what should I do with that on a SavageX 4.6? Just put it in a tube under the body?
Thanks for your help
Pete
