    What DSM2 satellite for 3GX

    Hi Chaps,
    I have a 3GX on the way to me for my ropey Trex 250.
    I run a DX7 and would like to know which satellite Rx will work with it.
    Is a SPM9545 OK?
    Can I connect just one?

    Is there another better one that is worth getting?

    Many Thanks
    Cheers,
    Rich (sirricardo).

    Trex 250 Mini V-Bar, 300 motor, KST servos (smokin!)
    CopterX 450Pro - 3GX (reset in flight x 2 - grrr)
    Trex 500ESP - Spartan (on the shelf - too nice to crash)
    Trex 550 DFC Head Mini V-Bar (Too mean!)

    Hey.

    They are the ones I am using on my 3GX'd 450 PRO and so will work fine.

    I would install and run 2 satellites on any model, while you could probably get away with one on a 250 the added security of a clean signal using two is much better. As usual mount the two satellites with their aerials aligned at 90 degrees to one another.

      Thanks for your help Ian.
      I just ordered some this morning from Revolution Models on their so called 25% off all the 'junk left over in the web sale'.
      But they were such a good price, they cancelled my order. The cheek.
      Strangely, all the other 'good stuff' on their sale is out of stock too.
      Won't use them again. Con-men
      I'll get them from Channel4 instead.
      Cheers, Rich.

        Hey Rich.

        Your very welcome my friend.

        That's a shame to hear about your order being cancelled by Revolution Models, one would hope it's not because of the price with the discount as that could open up a can of worms with trading standards I am sure.

        Let me know how you get on with the 3GX on a 250, I have one on my 450 PRO and just last night/today fitted another to my 550 in place of the original 3G to try this weekend weather permitting.

            They probably went out of stock I'd guess, they still have the DSMX versions there though?
