  • DX7 and 6100 Lockout

    Had my first Spektrum issue today which resulted in a broken V2 Trex.

    At the beginning if the flight with a fully charged transmitter, after about 20 seconds of gentle messing about I lost all control of the heli, like a total lock out although the fail safe did not kick in as it went in spinning.

    Damage was not too bad, the usual and one Radix - it was in the air soon after, but I am much more concerned on why it happened.

    The 6100 I have is one of the original ones, bought when the first came out and I remember some people had issues with the elevator channel early on.

    I can't grumble too much as this heli and RX has had over 100 trouble free flights but don't want it to happen again so will send RX off when I get home form holls.
    Clones are bad


    .... that includes Align ones

    Keep us posted Thomas. Just fitted a Spektrum rx to my 450 this evening.

    I test flew it and it seemed more stable and accurate than on the Futaba 35Mhz. Anyone else found this??

      Need to be on V1.2 firmware to be safe as there are issues with early 6100's

        I had the same problem with my AR6100, took me a few crashes to realize, I sent it back and they sent me a AR6100 V1.2 and all has been fine since then. But all this was back in the spring when the AR6100 first came out.
