Dremel
Or you could dremel the middle bar off and dremel around the outside of the gap and it looks very nice.

I was waiting for Nimble's response to Galifrey .... |

Brushless compatibility????
Has anyone tried them with brushless controllers (hackers or schulze)?:confused:

Originally posted by nimble I'm waiting for Paul Beard's response. :p Here is your question... Originally posted by nimble Gailifrey, clearly you are not an engineer, and don't understand how analog signals become RF. Please ask Paul Beard to come on this forum and explain how his module can transmit FASTER than the rate in which his module gets the data to transmit. It doesnt, 8ms is the speed the futaba servo reacts to movement under HRS... Thats including the module overhead.... I guess what you are saying is spektrumrc are lying about the quoted speed, as I clearly posted their definition and their response time... measured not assumed... I am not going to bring another to this argument as Paul designed the system for the 9ZHP and things have been tweaked a bit since then... BTW the latency I have for the 3PK is 3ms to the rx module and the module takes another 5ms on average to get the signal to the rx and out again due to the lower frequency and the fact it modulates in FM not microwave digital... Kinda LP vs CD... LP ultimate resolution CD ultimate clarity and lack of distortion... except in this case spektrum have given us 4x the reolution as well... who would have thought.. It takes 1.5ms for the neutral pulse on a radio, therefore the latency is always a minimum of 1.5ms using a PWM/PAM/PPM signal does a digital signal take 1.5ms to register the change... No... theres the start of our reduction in latency at the RX already... And no, I am no longer an engineer, I used to be a Royal Navy electronic engineering artificer... Now I work for a bank :D Just to add, clearly the servo will still be looking for a 1520usec neutral pulse (1.52ms) but the receiver wont... ;) |
Thanks rwisejr for the pics with the modifications to the tx module cover. I will see if I can get another cover and modify that one.

Some of you guys slay me with this show of your technical intelligence. Most of us that post on this thread could care less about all of the technical nuances of the system as far as response times, times to transmit signals from TX to RX, etc, etc. Most of us here just want to know if it works in different applications and what problems fellow racers may be experiencing with it. The bantering back and forth does not solve anything, prove who is right or wrong, and clogs up the thread with information that only 1% of reader truly understand. That is information that should be debated in its own, special thread.

Too bad they couldn't have made the module the same size as the Futaba module, it would have made the cover mod so much easier and neater. For some reason, the specktrum module is about .5mm thicker than the futaba module, so there is no way to just dremel out a slot for the new antenna and slide the cover back on the radio. I suspect that someone mis measured the dimensions of the thickness of the futaba module in designing the specktrum.
Still love the spektrum, and am slowly getting used to the new balance of the transmitter without the long antenna whip hanging out there. |

so - besides dremeling for the antenna, does one have to dremel the inside of the cover to make room for the thicker Spektrum module? Does it not slide over the module after the antenna is relieved?

Original 3PK
Is the cover thickness only an issue on the black synth 3PK?

minidriver, please send me email
website at nimblemotorsports dot com thanks, |
For what it's worth, the Futaba/Hitec module works as advertised in the Hitec Lynx 3D. Before you make jokes about the module costing more than the radio, let me say that I ordered this knowing full well I'd be getting a 3PK when the right deal came along. Until then, I'll be around for radio snobs to mock and disdain with my odd combo.

I pick mines up tomorrow, along with the Airtronics M8. I have heard good things about this combination, so I'll stick with what works.
