I already sent it back . I have another radio just like it in another airplane and it works great. I have nothing against the Tower line of radios, (aka Futaba) , its justthis particular radio that seems bad.

Someone mentioned their Xmitter antenna was loose. Mine was also, but tightening it up didn't seem to help any. All the tricks in the book wouldn't have helped this radio. I'll have to place the old radio back into the ship while Hobby Services decides what to do. The old radio works fine, it just didn't have "expo" andthis little ship has HUGEcontrol surfaces.

My fear is that Hobby Services won't be able to recreate the same conditions in their shop that actuallyoccured in the air, I couldn't. But, maybe theywill find it. We'll see.
