Airtronics M8

Hi guys,

I have a newbie question.
Im planning to buy an Airtronics M8 controller only.
I only have a stock servo that comes with my V-ONE S car kit.
And I have an AM receiver.

Will my Airtronics is compatible with my receiver and servos.

Thanks!!!

Hi,
if u already got a am rx,than u need to know the freq 27mHz or 40mHz.
Than u can look for the M8 that suit ur rx.
Just my 2cents.

hi fren,
yr AM receiver wont work with the M8 because original M8 operates on FM fequency. if you are to get the M8, you'll need the FM receiver or get the AM module for M8 which is available ONLY in 27mhz. for gas cars, its better to use FM system to operate them. the servo will work in all systems. hope this helps.

Thanks guys!

So what servo should i buy for my steering and throttle so that i can make full use of my M8 controller?

Do i need to buy a digital servo? I just bought a Futaba 9402 hi-speed servo.

Thanks in advance.

Default ESC

Hi,

Just got myself a Tamiya electric, was happily building away when I realised there's no space for a msc and second servo as space's pretty tight and there's no mounting holes in the upper deck. The upper deck's graphite, so I suppose drilling holes is definitely out.

May I know other than the "big" Sanwa esc which cld be had for ard $60, is there any other cheapo esc avail in S'pore? I need only something that cld take me to 19 turns.
