Well, it's been a fairly long time since I've posted, but here goes. This time, I'm asking the questions!

I use stick radios, and I generally use my 3VCS or 3VC transmitters. I have 2.4 FASST modules for both, and what I'm querying is this:

Why doesn't my 2.4 system seem to work with the SFL-10MG servo that came with my Baja 5B SS? I'm running in PPM mode, but only my Hitec 5925 (digital) seems to work. When my SFL - 10 servo is connected, it doesn't matter which channel I connect it to, the servo moves rhythmically from endpoint to endpoint, with the R603FS receiver flashing Red/Green.

When the SFL is connected to a 40FM receiver, it works fine.

I've tried both the 3VC and 3VCS with 2 separate PK-FSM2.4G modules. All besides the Tx's are brand spanking new and unused. The problem occurs each time.

This seems to be a specific problem to do with the FASST system and the SFL - 10MG servo. I was under the impression that the system should work fine with analogue servos provided that you run in PPM mode. But I've had no luck so far.

I'm hoping that I don't have to revert to 40FM, as I only have 1 PCM receiver left. And I don't want to buy another digital servo - this time a 1/4 scale size jobbie.

Any ideas guys?

Regards
