Problem with this old system among many current FHSS systems is that it can have glitches because all those frequency hopping transmitters will come across your static chosen frequency..

Do not know what you have payed but Futaba has several new FHSS models for an affordable price.

reason I retired my 3PK in December.... racing with 9 other racers.. with the new systems... glitches became common..
at first I thought my receiver was going bad.... got new system...
put 3PK in my drift car.. just for parking lot fun.. no more glitches.. no other radios around
