Default Having a Futaba TX Fixed

I made a mistake and Jaws (hood of my Explorer) ate my TX. It is a 6XAS, but it was not as bad as it could have been. I only affected the Aileron and elevator stick. I was able to fix everything mechanical, and I thought I was 100%, but those channels would not work. Took it back apart and realized there was a hairline crack in the PC board surround that stick. LIke I said everything else works.

Anyone know were to send it to get the TX fixed? ...number or e-mail address for an estimate?

Thanks! I am grounded until I get it fixed! []

This is a tough one. You may be able to get help at an independant like Radio South but the avaliablilty of parts may be an issue. Most likely you may have to go to Futaba for board replacement. Check the customer service info at the head the Futaba direct support forum here at RCU.

Sounds like a great opportunity to buy a new 7CAP or 9C

I would upgrade to the 7CAP, if I had the extra dough. $149 for TX only isn't bad.
