Waterskier,
I'm a little confused. The retail website hobbypeople is offering an airplane with radio system but somewherein the information you found they're offering a transmitter on, lets say, ch 21 and the receiver is on, lets say , channel 43? or you saw a picture and they don't match? Please explain further or provide a link.

Sincerely,

It is not clear what you mean about the crystals in the transmitter and receiver not matching. The transmitter crystal is not the same as the reciever crystal (they cannot be interchanged) and are not exactly the same frequency if you are looking at the actual frequency in megacycles. The RC units are usually marked by a channel number (11 thru 60) for aircraft use. If your transmitter crystal is the same channel number as the receiver number you are okay, i.e. both marked channell 20 or XX you are okay. Any hobby shop should be able to explain that to you if you are still in doubt.

sorry, waterskier, you aren't making sense. When you buy a radio system it includes transmitter and receiver and both crystals already installed and properly tuned in both. You dont then need to buy other crystals, they're already in the system. Perhaps it would be best for you to call hobby people and talk through what you're ordering with someone there to ensure you're getting just what it is you want/need.
