Using satellites with BeastX

[Lynx.1677]

Hi guys, anyone used the spek satellites with beastX? The disclaimer about using it with smaller models worries me slightly. Only want to use 1 sat with my 450Pro.

Any issues found? Loss of signal etc?

Worked for me on 450sev2 for loads of flights. I never had any issues. I fly too far and too high

Cool, thanks Asid.

One satellite = 1 antenna, no diversity and not the way I'd ever choose to use Spektrum hardware.

I use several 450 size machines with 1 sat never a problem.

However there are warnings about more than 1 sat on above 450 size for diversity.

I think on 450 size there is no issue. I would only ever use 1 normal rx anyway (no sats) so it's the same risk surely?

Tell you what would look funny... a 450 pro with an ar9000 and 2 satellites plus FBL system and all the other bits and bobs haha
Seriously though these things are usually flown in far shorter distances so i wouldnt worry about it. Obviously youd range check it before hand anyways?

I used 6100e quite a lot on 450 with zero probs.

Works for me
