i too use this receiver and have not experienced glitch... even though its on 75mhz

also use JR R1 and XS3 transmitter - no more crystals too buy

i'd recomend it!

Me+RC=$$$ 09-28-2003 09:33 PM

Best receiver ever made! My only gripe is that the case comes apart way too easily, I was in a hard crash a few weeks ago and the case popped apart and I had to send the receiver back to Novak to get a replacement one under warranty. Just make sure to tape the case together so it cannot seperate, the problem I am speaking of is similar to the case problem on the LRP Quantum Competition ESC.

Just tape the case together so it cannot come apart and you've got yourself the greatest receiver ever :nod:.

It just came out recently, there was a small article about it in this months XRC or RCCA magazine (can't remember which one!)

All of my newer kits have the Novak XXtra which I use with my M8. Never experienced any glitching and like the others love the receiver and the other Novak products that I use (specifically the Brushless Motor System)!!! :D

In Asia it's available in 27mhz, 40mhz, & 75mhz. Taping the side of the case is good to do (though fortunately I have never had the receiver case pop open on me) and if you also use it for off-road kits then a receiver cover is a plus as well! ;)

I have two myself and never got glitch till this weekend on chanel 70 and hit hard I just wanted to see if annyone has got glitch with it but I think someone did turn on their radio in the pits. I was mad cause I had just finished setting up a brand new R2 and was on my first lap and BAM! thier went my front shok tower with a shop that didnt sell parts. Oh well. gonna try a different channel. Give me some uncommon channels I can use. Thanks.

i have had my synthesisers for 2 years since they came out and have never had a problem with them when i first got them i had a hitech radio with thier adjustable module and now i got the m8 with the switch! i rate them a perfect 10.

BHenderson 09-29-2003 02:44 PM

I have the XXtra as well as the Switch for my M8, and I love it. the only complaint i have is the size of the XXtra. I wish it was about half the size that it is, but it sure is nice not to have to worry with crystals anymore. :)
