I thought I would post this here not in radio forum as the answer may help some begginers.
New member in the club comes down the field with his two trainers. I and another member go over the planes. Ready to go. (We think)
But I don't have my budddy box with me, so we do the old hot potato. First time doing that for me.First flights for him L.O.L Put first one ( tower 40 trainer) up 4 mistakes. Hand of, he flies great, no problems. After replacing glowplug, flew again. Was going great till rudder hinges pulled out. He passes tx and I land safely. No problem.
Next he pulls out the avistar. Go over it. I put it up. Was just about to pass the tx and the motor mount breaks. [X(] just enough alt to bring it around dead stick. Whew.
Now I've flow both these planes before. They have been around in the club for a few years.The Avistar is the first plane I ever flew when an instucter said aw come on give it a shot, you'll love it.
Anywho , to my question, What radio can he use with his futaba 2.4 6e radio. It has a square plug. He said he read somewhere that you cant use a radio with a round plug (sky sport, etc) to buddy box with.
Does it need to be a 2.4 radio?
thanks, venom
