I had a R617FS Rx in a helicopter that the BEC failed and burned up the servos and gyros. The Rx is not working either. Can it be repaired? Is there a fuse (or fuse link) that could be replaced?


Thanks

Align (I don't know the model ...I sent it back to Align).

Sounds like you had an over voltage condition occur. If that is the case, I would send that Rx to Futaba for service/repair. I don't think there is a fuse or a fuse link that blows to save the Rx. I suspect you'll have several electronic components that will need replacement on the circuit board.

Thanks for the reply................

That's what I thought. I was hoping someone from Futaba could give me an idea of the repair (I can buy a new one for $85).

Without seeing the unit, it's impossible to say what the difficulty may be or what it would cost to repair. However, repairs will not exceed 1/2 of the MSRP of the receiver. If they do cost more, we'll offer a new receiver at 1/2 of the MSRP.

Thanks for the reply...................I'll be sending my TX in for service in a few months, I'll send the RX with it.
