Hello

I have a R136 F 72mhz Receiver, and would like to know the specs on it? I can't find any information on it any where.

1. Range
2. Type of crystal (single or dual)
3. Voltage ( can it be ran a 7.2 volts

Thanks

I can't find your receive on the Futaba site, and it goes back to the early 80s. The nomenclatur on the radio would translate to a 6 channel, FM, single conversion receiver. I would not suggest that you use more than 6 volts for a battery pack, even if the RX was OK, the servos would not like it.

Check the Futaba site. http://www.futabarc.com/radioaccys/old-receivers.html for more info.
