I did my testing as best to the scenario David described. My modules where Fixed. R945S Rx

A 10X anttena does not collapse fully so you get plenty of range on first section alone. You must unscrew it from the ball swivel for ground range testing to shorten the distance. So with that.

I set Master TX near Kingcat anttena collapsed first section, and operated controls normally. I then took second offending TX with antenna OFF and walked out of range of MASTER (too lessen range to observation of model) set it down and returned to Master to insure Master was under full control. I then went and picked up the offender TX and walked within range of the model with the offender, as soon as the offending TX was within range to cause a reaction, the elevator went to almost half down before returning nuetral prior to interferrence and the model was NOT in control on either TX and in full failsafe.

With two JR TX operating within range of model I never got any TX to control the model, only failsafe, If you turn them on within the operating range of TX or model, that IMO is not what David described. If I turned one on within range of each other the elevator blip does not happen. IMO where talking milliseconds of processor coding and on initial power up I'm sure its a differant algorityhm prior to online broadcasting.


Davids explaination and my testing explains to me WHY no scanner results were seen, My thoughts are someone flew on his channel previuosly, collapsed their antenna which leaves one length extended (10X), returned to their pit area, got busy with their model, and forgot to turn OFF their TX, This would be out of range of the scanner and Davids model and setup this Failsafe quirk as David entered into the limited broadcast zone of the offending TX.

The 9303 as Master or Offender did the same thing, The 8103DT did not, IMHO Jr engineering team who once had it right, went wrong and did not cover this base in sofware as previuosly designed in the beginning. My son has my old 10SXII so I will get that one and see if it works like old JR failsafe.

I'm also pretty certain the list of offending JR TX is small within the zone of the blip, who flew prior to David... And they KNOW who they are and must be freaking out with that giant skidmark on the field show center, the rest of the weekend. So what would be the right thing to do in this instance knowing you just trashed a $10K+ model and have no means to replace it, and this amount of time and Monday quarterbacking has passed???
