I did a range check the other day with the motor running on one of my planes and i only got 135ft with a futaba pcm rx and about 200 ft with the motor off. So i flu it and it was ok no problem's. All you have to get is 100ft thats it,if you get more than that then thats even better. I saw a plane just like the one you have with a fuji 50 on it and it had a good range check, but time they took off with it it went in to failsafe and then went to full throttle and hit the dirt. The guy that had it got another one and he put the same stuff in it the same way it was in the 1st one and he had no problems,it flu great. We had about 5 planes at our field with pcm rx to go down within a months time.All the plane that went down had been flown many times before we're still not sure what happened but there was something in the air.
