Flysky receiver problems
 
I have three Flysky receivers that have been sitting on the shelf and I went to use them today and all three of them have failed. Channel 1 is not working on all three and I tested two different tranmitters to see if it was a faulty transmitter. Has anyone else had any issues with this?

I've had 4 receivers fail but they were in cars, we since dropped the FlySky radio system for our program.

Have you tried a different servo just to see if it Is that? I've had 8 flysky receivers and had two go bad but was my fault. I don't see why all three would be bad. Why were they sitting on your shelf to begin with? Are they new?

Two of the receivers were new still in the bag. I bought them along with the radios over a year ago.

One of them was in my buggy. They have been sitting in a drawer the entire time with the eexception of when I moved a few months back. They were in a box, then unpacked and sitting in the drawer again.

I had about a 50% failure rate with my flysky recievers. Caused runaways and a lot of glitching. There's a reason they're $7 each.

Wow that really sucks. Like I said before I've had problems but it was my fault. You might try getting ahold of hobbypartz and see if they will exchange them.

Not worth it. Dropped that pos for a futaba 4pl a long time ago. When it comes to radios, price does matter. Other cheaper items you can get away with, but i've learned you don't skimp out on the radio.

I've had seven of these receivers with no problems. Did you try re-binding them with your TX? I have been testing interference with these receivers and found that if the receiver is positioned close enough to the esc or specifically the BEC channel 1 and or 2 will glitch or not respond at all.
