Just got my new Pro DSM setup, switching from FM... What I find interesting, is when you turn on the RX (with out the radio on), the wheel are spinning forward, slow but going forward, I turned on the radio and the same thing, so I had to go into the throttle settings and put brake into it to stop this (about 8 clicks). I have two cars, one with a LRP Q2 and the other with a LRP sphere. Both are acting the same with to different RX units, both DSM RX units are the Pro.
Is this normal?
What am I missing?
Do I need to reset my speedo?

If you have your radio set up with roll throttle, when you bind the receiver to the radio that is the position that the fail-safe will hold in the event of a transmitter signal loss. I would say rebind the receiver and module, but back the roll throttle out to the point that the brakes are being applied by the speedo. That way the fail-safe will actually stop your car in the event of a signal loss (which is escentially what you're recreating by turning on the receiver on it's own.)

thanks for the info... I was holding full brake on, but maybe I did something wrong... I will try it again....
PS, I also purchased a EX-10 at the same time, and maybe the factory settings are off... I just looked and I'm not able to locate roll throttle, because they call it something else...

Hey all. I've been meaning to test the SR3500 with a Tekin ESC and I finally did yesterday. When I had run my Mini-LST with a Tekin Brushless and an SR3000, I had to run the SPM1600 Voltage protector or else it would shutter and sputter on acceleration. With the SR3500, I didn't have any issues at all. I still need to test my QC2 with the new receiver, but good to know that it looks like the new lower voltage requirement DOES make a difference. I have a QC2 in my MF2 that I may test tonight.

Before try any modifications, it would be good to hear what success other have had with this

i have put the Spektrum module in my Helios, with the spktrum arial is coming out of the factory antenna hole.... kinda hard to describe how to do it tho. i had to take the module apart, and make a small hole in the case where the antenna wire can come out.
if i get a chance, ill shoot some pix this eve.
