  • Crystals?

    Can you use a dual-conversion Rx crystal in a non-dual conversion Rx? (PCM 1024)

    I would guess the otherway round would not work, but I have a spare D/C crystal but the Rx is not.

    Thanks

      I don't think so David - I think they have to be the correct type for the receiver?

          Have a quick check first to make sure.
          Plug a Rx battery into a switch and then into the Rx.
          Plug a servo into the receiver.
          Insert crystal and switch on - surefire test

            That's a good idea...but I really can't be arsed.
            I need to get a couple of bits cos I've got some lessons booked with some hot-shot instructor in a couple of weeks, so I have to go to the LHS anyway. Don't want to look a complete prat on the day Don't know him do you???????

                You cannot use a dual conversion crystal in a standard receiver and vice versa.

                  No they're completely built, but not in one piece

                  Seriously. Raptor 30 that has been totally reliable, and a Swift 16 that I love...since I sorted the crap stock motors...when I say sorted I mean threw the f****ing things away & replaced with an Axi...it's been my favourite to fly.
                  Century of course NEVER have problems with their motors. I must have been really unlucky to have three burn out!

                  No. this is a Trex 450 I bought off a friend and am SLOWLY sorting.

                    Yeah! Got to love the line " Just bought this heli, can you give it the quick once over and see if it's OK?" and "can you just fly this heli, see if it's OK?" and "Got the 401 you suggested and look how much I saved on the tail servo"

                      All good - I haven't ever seen a Swift 3D fly in person yet - should be good!

                          Delete "3D" "2D" at most. Swift 16, I think is a good lecky for my level.
