Futaba Glitch
Hi,
I am using a Futaba R137 receiver coupled to five cirrus servos in a fun fly model.
Everything checks out fine,range etc,but when flying relatively low like coming in to land i keep getting a slight glitch and a throttle kick i.e the motor blips on its own.
Everything is new ,servos receiver ,xtal,switch.
I am not using anything likely to cause a problem such as extra long servo leads,and the anntenna is full length taped to the underside of the fuselage.
Any ideas?
Cheers...........Trev

RE: Futaba Glitch
Hi Tervor,
Unfortunatley, as we do not carry the R137 receiver here in the US we are not familiar enough with it to give you much help. Other than the usual things to check for such as, making sure the crystal is seated in the receiver properly, the antenna has no nicks and is not doubled over on itself, etc, we are not sure.
I hope you find this information helpful. You can also reach our Futaba support technical team at 217-398-8970, or via fax at 217-398-7721.
Sincerely,
