Does anyone know if a Vantec RDFR22JR will work with a Futaba R124H-27 ,27mhz AM receiver?
I hooked it up and .......nothing!
The manual mentions that it "works" with PCM and FM....does this mean it does NOT work with AM?
$260 wasted?

I think I screwed up royally!!!!
I was using the power /battery wires from the M5 Stuart to hook up Vantec and did not notice that I had crossed the polarity of the battery leads...........seems I have FRIED a brand new ESC by shear stupidity........the manual says it will be "destroyed" if this happens.......just my luck,now I am for sure out $260

Can you send it back to Vantec for repairs?

I called Vantec this morning and the guy was very curtious and friendly......will send out for repairs today
BTW- I have decided to go with the Tamiya DMD and MF for my 1/6 Tiger instead......will probably unload the Vantec on e-bay when I get it back(should be good as new).
