I just bought a futaba 9CAP Super TX and RX from tower. IT's not tranmittng even though the batteries are fully charged. The blue RF LED is supposed to light when the radio is functioning properly. Mine hasn't came on yet. I've scoured the manual but it mentions nothing about this. Please help! What did I forget to do.

Thanks,

Yep check the module in the back, pull it out, make sure the pins aren't mashed and push it back in till it locks and then turn it on and see.

Also, 30. It came with the radio

Tried that. I was readig the manual and it says that when the module is not installed it's supposed to beep really loudly once and then the RF light goes out. Mine has not came on since I powered it up.

What else could this be?

Thanks, Mods

You said its a 9chP and reciever, is the reciever PCM and is PCM vice PPM showing and not flashing in the display?

At first I tried PCM then PPM. Neither transmitted a signal (RF light did not come on and reciever didn't react).

Sounds like it is going to be making a trip back to IL.

Eglin AFB eh, I spent a week out there for land survival from Naval Aircrew School chasing armadillos around. Seen enough of that place!

Good luck with the radio.

If the red led is on and the blue one is off then send it in.
The red is for RF the blue is for power.
Your pack is charged so that is not it.
Send it back.
