Futaba 9C LCD went out
 

I charged my 9C radio last night for flying today. I flew two flights and was preparing to make my third flight of the day. Radio voltage was at 10.1, I started the engine and cleared the timer, tested the control throws and proceded to take off. As soon as I was up I looked down to the LCD panel and it was gone! I still had complete control of the aircraft and landed right away. The power light was blinking and the RF light was on but nothing on the LCD panel. I turned off the radio and on again and everything was back to normal! the voltage was 10.2 on the display. I'm not sure what happened or if I should worry about it. So, any input or help would be appreciated. I tried to simulate the problem again but it seemes to work fine.

Thanks,

Sheldon Sievert

Hi Sheldon,

I would of course recommend that you send this into the service center, the LCD should never blank out at all.
