Default RE: two questions??????



Since you didn't mention what brand of radio you have (if you did mention I apologize that I missed it) I can't point you to the manufacturers repair center. That would be the best best for repairs. You can also send it in to Radio South (regardless of what brand it is). They are very reputable and do fantastic work.Here is there info:

Radio South
139 Altama Connector, #322
Brunswick, GA 31525
(PH 800-962-7802) (operated by Tony Stillman)


Radio South
6847 N. 9th Ave., Suite A #320
Pensacola, FL 32504  (PH 850-426-0820)(operated by Ben Pham)


No, having a receiver checked is not a free service. Prices depend on where you send it, as well as the extent of work done to the receiver. How long it takes depends on where it goes, how far behind they are, and what needs to be done to it. All of the receivers I've ever sent in (usually Airtronics) have been back to me within a couple of weeks.

Is it worth sending it in?? That's up to you to decide. What's your plane worth?? I NEVER fly a receiver after it's been crashed until it's sent in for service. It's just too easy for a receiver to get damaged in a crash, and putting it into another plane without having it checked is a great way to see another plane crash.

Hope this helps
