Default Problems with Futaba 3PJ

Anyone using 3PJ with PCM receiver? Is the failsafe built-into the 3PJ very sensitive? I can't operate my car more than 10ft away without the failsafe kicking in. I tried at 2 diff. areas (Perling Leisure Mall and Bkt Indah Clubhouse, JB) and the same thing happened. I don't believe it is any real interference. Could the failsafe function/unit be faulty? I tried changing antennaes and it still won't work beyond 10ft. The crystals are 40 mhz channel 67 (what is the exact freq. huh? is it 40.670?). The Rx module is PCM and the 3PJ is set to use PCM. The RF LED is lit up fine i.e; signal strenght is OK. All the batteries (Tx/Rx) are fully charged. I haven't tried it without the failsafe function yet.


any help appreciated.
