Default RE: Radio Range Trouble.

Hey.
My battle is still on. After a rebuilding and move the fuel pump back beside the turbine, move all the cable to the turbine on one side and all to the receiver on the other side. But in the front this airframe is narrow.Change the ECU battery pack.
Put on noise ferrite ring on the throttle cable and on the cable from the ECU battery pack and the two longest servo cable. And put on 3 noise condenser on the fuel pump.
I also get a reply from the factory that make this turbine, and the advice was change ECU battery, and check out the cockpit panel after any loose connection. And look after a burn out LED light.
And this ECU and turbine is well know to be very good protection to any RF-Noise.
So today was the day to check this out. It's a new field but I been use this place for many years.
Start up go trough the routine with the full speed back to idle. And with fully extended antenna start walking with a cell phone in my hand and a friend with cell phone in the other end. After ca 200-250 Meter(650 Feet).Everything is still running smooth,start to speed up the turbine, when I reach about half speed, It went in fail safe and shut down, and after yes everything work well again.
So now what ??????.
