Transponder
 

I was Wondering if it better to have 3 mylaps transponder or if it better to buy 1 trans and 3 holders. Does anyone find it a pain to just pull it out all the time to put into another car?

I tried to use one transponder on multiple vehicles my first year. It was a pain because inevitably I would forget to switch it over and go out on the track with a vehicle not counting. So, I opted to have one for each ride. Plus, some cars aren't really conducive to having to swap something like that all the time. My 1/8 buggy is a pain in the neck to get the radio box back together after opening it.

ok that what i was wondering thanks do you use the holders do you think it would be good to have some extras just i case i gonna grab some extra holders just wondering how many like 3 i think would be safe for now.

I don't use the holders. I just servo tape them to the top of the steering servo on my 1/10 stuff. My 1/8 has a mount, but I had already cut the ears off the transponder so I just servo taped it onto the mount.

I have 4 PT's for a reason..:sneaky:


one is never enough

ok will thanks for the input gonna get two tran and some holders for now and see how the hold in them.

My myLaps is in my 1/12 scale and difficult to get in and out of its holder so I opted to get a second one for my WGT.

I use the older AMBs in my 1/10 and 1/8. The workaround for a radio box is a short (3") aileron extension, plug that into the receiver and route the female end out of the box to plug in the transponder. I then affix the transponder with velcro on any of the vehicles.

Will I got one trans for now two holder, 3extension and two split extension for the two channel rx so one end plugs the battery and the other for the trans i think. and i got some velcro too not sure which way holds better but im gonna try them both till i get some more trans stomer got them for 98 something for the mylaps cheapest spot i found.
