You guy's ever come across a Futaba 2.4 that unbinds it's self ? I have had this happen once with the new system.. But that was the one I sent back to tower.I bought anothr tx for a back up. Then tower sent me a new system.. Im just having no luck at all with anything l8tley. And not being allowed to fly because of comp sucks bad.. By the time I do get a chance to fly all of my warrinties will be out of date lol..

Yes this has happened to me once. I bound a Rx to the Tx using a battery that had no capacity remaining i.e. it was too low on voltage.
The Rx unbound. I repeated the exercise with a fresh battery and it bound nd has remained that way ever since.

Warbird, I have had experience of surgical implants affecting radio transmission.
One incident was in a EMI testing facility when a colleague walked in while the facility operators was calibrating the EMI chamber.Everything went haywire.
the other was at a flying field when a woman with large implants stood beside her husband in front of a mate of mine while he was flying his plane. His plane started glitching but recovered after a few seconds.

Standing joke : Planes a glitching, b*lls are itching...

That's true, a friend of mine had a pacemaker and he had to get out of the hobby because it was effecting him. He died a few years ago right after he attended the club picnic that night. His wife came to the field the next Sunday to tell us he had the greatest time watching us fly at the picnic. RIP Earl.
