Default RE: Weatronic 2.4

That may be because I choose my equipment with great care. However, when I do point out something, here or in RCJI, that does NOT work well such as the FC Mig 29 original hydraulics, or the original BobCat elevator servo spec. I do get a LOT of sometimes very unpleasant hassle, abuse even ! I tell it like it is.

Several guys were involved in setting up the Weatronics Micro 2.4 at Scampton, after we got it bound (German instructions) everyone actually saw it working "flawlesly" from its very first flight for which they gave me a solo slot, , switch on, check green and fly ! Installation of the Tx took seconds and we swapped over the receivers in about 2 minutes , securing the antennae with Joe's black tape , job done ! Even the range check is now made simpler. (Select range check on Tx, amber flashing light, walk away from model till red light flashes Rf at limit of range) ) Now we know the button pushing sequence binding is simplicity itself.

No remote receivers, but has dual battery inputs on just a tinySINGLE box incorporating dual receivers and telemetry and upgradable firmware, AND these receivers are cheap compared with JR 12 channel 2.4 receivers.

Last Sunday at Wroughton, just flew it all day, worked flawlessly !

I will keep flying it, you should try it!
