  • 35mhz to 2.4ghz

    Hi
    This is most probably a stupid question but....
    Can you convert a 35mhz heli to fly on 2.4ghz?
    if yes how?

    thanks

    You would need to replace the receiver and transmitter with a 2.4Ghz system, such as a Spektrum DX7

      Depends on the model.

      If the model has a 35MHz Receiver (RX) then simply change that to a 2.4GHz one with the subsequent change to the transmitter.

      You will need to setup the model again though eg. end points, swash mix etc etc

      If its a small mini Heli with built in 35MHz RX then that may be more difficult but not impossible I would have said.

      Ta.

          Sell off the 35Mhz gear - someone will buy it.

          If you are a member on BMFA - sell it on the BFFA classifieds to avoid the really annoying ebay and paypal fees. Either that or flog via free ads.

          cheers

            Do you mean a mini heli? If so, the chances are it would be cheaper & easier to buy a new mini with 2.4 fitted. Swapping the Rx & Tx would be a very expensive option best suited to a 30 size or above.
