this may sound dumb but rule of thumb is negative wire on servo (esc) should be closest to edge of receiver case. And ESC is in channel 2

Tracked the time of my last battery run from charge to dead. 24hrs and 21min. Not too bad. Since I found one that will fit, I think I'm going to go for a 5000mah next.

I asked before how you get to that screen to check time from beginning to end. Can you please post how you got to that location. And does on time full to dead show on main screen?

Dumb question: is SSR mode applied on an individual channel basis? Ie: if I'm using an SSR servo but (I presume) my ESC isn't SSR compatible, can I still use ssr mode on steering, or is it an all or nothing deal?

From the main menu go to System then scroll down to Clock. That's it. No, it does not show time "full to dead" on the main screen. It only shows battery voltage.

Perhaps you're misunderstanding, this isn't a timer that counts down the time till the battery dies. It's just a timer that you can use to track run time. The other timer, ON TIME2 is the total system run time, you can't clear it or reset it.

It's per channel.

I'm still looking for the trigger/grip accessories for the MT44. If anyone has a set they'd be willing to part with, send me a PM. Thanks.

Can one of you do me a favor? Can someone measure the widest part of the radio, presumably from the rightmost part of the steering wheel to the leftmost part of the display or battery housing? I'm trying to figure out what the minimum internal depth of case I need is. I have a few candidates on hand already, but they might be a bit tight. Someone back on page 8 aid they'd used a 6" deep case by removing internal foam and replacing with felt, but not sure if this was an internal or external measurement.

Thanks!

I measure 11cm at the widest point.

has anyone tried the powerstar antenna-less receiver? if so, what mode do you use? FH3 or FH4T? the instructions say to use "FHSS" mode and the MT44 doesn't have that option.

Your good use either one of course i would use FHT4T mode on the transmitter since it is faster. FHSS is the protocol for FH3 AND FH4T

The HobbyStar HRX-472 from Amazon works perfectly in FH4 mode on the MT44. The bind button is hard to press correctly but if the case is taken off for the binding process it's a brease. Range is really good too.
