DX7 buzzing

[funfreex]

Does anyone else with a DX7 hear a buzzing comming from the Tx when its turned on? Since I purchased the set it has done this and I am now wondering if there is some kind of fault with it as I have lost full control of right rudder! I am going to put the heli back onto the 35mhz set to check rudder operation but I thought I would ask about the buzz first.

Mine doesn't but I have heard others on here discussing the DX7 Buzz.

May be worth giving Horizon a ring they are really helpfull

I too had a similar thing with right rudder but no buzzing, if i was hard over right ie doing chaos id lose the tail but if i backed off a bit i regained control WEIRD. Have sent my dx7 to horizon today fer repair as its not outputting an rf signal and i caused me to crash my k3d on friday. So fingers crossed its fixable!

[funfreex]

that is the same symptoms I am experiencing. Was it the Tx?

[steelie600]

Spektrum dx7

[funfreex]

thats the one

[steelie600]

hoping its summat simple and hoping even more it doesnt cost owt to fix!! lol.

But when i get it back im seriously considering a dsx9 so i can run the vibe with 140 degree ccpm, but i do love my dx7!! Another quandry! lol

You can run the Vibe on 140° CCPM on the DX7.. I did
I think there's a thread on here about the correct p.mixes to put into the Tx...

Otherwise, once Real Raptors knowledgebase is back up and running, it's in there
Cheers,

mine buzzes slightly, only slightly though and has always done it since new, cant say im bothered by it!

[Davewaddy]

Again mine does the same (buzzes) and has since I purchased it in Feb 2008. I was worried at first but its been a brill piece of kit and no issues with it.

Mine buzzes also very slightly.

anyone else with rudder problems also?

[Brewber]

mine buzzes but no rudder problems...well, not attributable to the tx anyways...more to the chimp at the controls

[jimheli]

mine buzzes to and as always done it cant say ive had any probs yet with it tho.

I've got 2 dx7s. Both buzz a little it'd completely normal. Unless it's particularly loud, then I'd get it checked out. You need to put your ear to it to really hear it.

As has already been said Horizon are very good turning stuff around and are very helpful so if you are concerned send it back to them.
