Futaba 604FS-E Glitch
 

Anyone have any issues with these receivers? I just installed one of these 604FS-E receivers in my 12th scale and for the first time ever my car start glitching. Once per 6 minute race my car would either stop, or go in a straight line and smash into the boards.

Initially I had issues trying to get the receiver to bind.

Not had any issues with mine in my Shark.

Worked flawless in my F1 so far;)

well i suggest a regulator cap would help the volt into the Rx. unstable power is 1 common prob coz glitching.

I had switched from a normal 604FS receiver and never had any glitches. May be something else causing it. I will try the 604FS-E in my touring car and see if it still happens.

Is the Cap something you just plug into the receiver? Where would I get one?

Yes, it plugs into an empty slot in teh rcvr. Novak sells them ready to install.

if u drive a 1/12th pan car... regulator cap is a must on the Rx. coz u run on 5 cells.

We are running on a 1S lipo with a Novak Booster for the receiver. Used to run 4 cell NiMH but thats out now.

that's indeed up to date n light... while my lhs still selling the serpent pan with nimh cells.. :weird:
