Thanks for the quick answers guys. I was just sitting at home holding the radio and playing with the features and notice that it got kinda slippery in my hand. So I can only imagine what it would be like when it 85-90degrees on race day!

I'll try both the grip tape and Auto Dual-Rate out and see how it goes.

Thanks again!

Darkseid: play with the auto dual-rate.....you'll like it once it is set-up.....

I like the grip tape on mine.....only thing is it gets dirty easily.....

But, I guess the extra traction compond on it makes it work better....lol

xxxs69: Gary should be around to help shortly....

Hey!! No there have been no glitching probs with that combo. The great thing is that you no longer need Xtals.

As for the price you can drop Rob S in Kelowna a line and ask him for a price on that combo. I don't know what they are selling for up here. If you got any other ?? fire away. TTYL.

I got the grip tape on and it feels great. The funny thing is that I didn't realized that the little ring around the tape to keep it from unravelling was actually tape. I didn't realize it until I saw my son had pulled the backing off and was sticking it to stuff! So I got it all done now.

I did have one glitch problem with my combo. It was clearly a matter of where the XXtra was mounted on my Corally C4.1. I tried mounting it exactly where I had my XXL mounted previously(pretty close to the motor), but the XXtra didn't seem to fight off the motor noise as well as the XXL did. So a simple swap of position between my speedo and XXtra did the trick. This was a very small move since the speedo and XXtra were right next to each other. But, it was enough to clear up the problem.

Might try cleaning the motor or swapping it out and put the Xxtra back the way you had it with the XXL....

????

How do you like the combo?

I have an 545BB in my MTX2 for my throttle and it will not center properly. It is enough for me to notice the RPMs going way up when I come off the throttle. All my linkage is setup properly (I think) and it worked for a long time, but my car got whacked on the track and I had to replace the gear set. I might not have installed the gearset properly. Should I send it in? Or is there something I can do. Thanks.

If your car took a serious enough whack to do in the gears something else may have been damaged also. Send it in to us and we'll get it fixed up for you. Check our site www.hitecrcd.com and click on the custormer service link for more info. TTYL.

Well what happened is I had a little bit of nitro left and I was running without a body to tune my engine, it died on the back straight, and I pulled off to the side of the straight. An electric racer (during practice) then, going full speed, didnt see my car and whacked it really hard. It bent the linkage and tore off the output shaft to the servo. Ill be sure to send it in. Good thing I have a spare 545bb so I can race this weekend.

Thanks,

Our single conversion Xtals should work fine. The Dual cnversion Xtal will only work in our DCX's. TTYL.

You guys are quick with the responses - even on the weekends. Great service ethic from HiTec.

Wish the rest of the industry would follow the leader.

Thanks,

Joe
