Guys BEWARE if you are going to play at this location (PA site at Kallang next to the National Stadium). Went there this afternoon got a lot of weird things happening to my radio system. Take note that this was a PCM system.

After about 5 mins running my car, the fail safe kicked in. I thought maybe the TX batt weak to I changed but after that there was no response from the RX at all. Checked everything including crystals and connections but still same problem. Then just as it happened, it stopped and everything went back to normal. So I continued again. After about 10 mins, I slammed into a drain because I lost control of my steering servos. Nvm, sorted eveything out and continued but within 5 mins the fail safe kicked in again. I gave up hope and packed up.

Back at home I tested out the system, everything worked fine, in fact perfectly. Everything worked fine even after about 30 mins of use. I concluded that there was some major interference that even a PCM system cannnot tahan.

So guys/girls if you want to play at area or even opposite at the Kallang carpark better be careful or maybe get the Spektrum system...hehe.

Enjoy the remainder of your weekend.
