Default RE: Setting up a DLE20

TimBle,

the bracing will be required. By default, the spring moves the lever back to idle not front to idle. In other words, the servo has to push to open the throttle (I hope I make sense), without the bracing the rod will just flex out of alignment. By the way, is the nyrod only for preventing metal to metal contact? If so, there is no point in getting it, ball links on both sides will serve the purpose. I may need to use 4-40 though as 2-56 full threaded isint available on Tower either

a1pcfixer,

the free RX is a gimic. By default the 8FG / TM-8 module comes set to 8 channels. To use a 617fs you have to set a small switch to 7 channels on the back of the thing (anyone with a 8FG please confirm this). The switch is so small, it will get damaged after a few times switching. I have a TM8 module on my 9cap and I sold off all my 617fs RX and bought 6008hs to get get around this problem. So the free RX is not desired. Wish Tower would deduct the price of the RX and ship me the 8FG
