Well i have had my receiver thermal 2 times now! What do i do? Ive tried hrs and ive tried ppm modes. Neither worked. It only takes about 10 minutes in 80 degree weather. Is there anything i can do to prevent this? Thanks for the help

Futaba's advice was to mount this rcvr on its side, not the bottom. Exposing the bottom increase surface area for cooling. If its in a rcvr box, add some ventilation and make sure rcvr batt (if using one) is not adding to the heat issue.
