You're telling me there is no receiver or fm module plugged in the back of the transmitter ? If not, were you aware of this ?? If you got neither and it was me, I guess I'd spend the money and get the Spektrum Pro module and a Pro receiver versus going FM. Have the Spek on my M8 and it's flawless. Shop around as prices vary. You could start with Stormer or Ultimate or A-Main. I've gotta say it's strange selling a M11 with no module at all, let alone no rx. Kinda scary having to spend more .. assuming the M11 is good. Anyone you could borrow from to check it ??

i got the remote for 150. and it doesnt have the module plugged into the back. i was wondering what id need to make it work in the meantime.
when i got it i wasnt really aware tho. but the transaction is done and the remote is in transit. i havent been into rc in years so i didnt really have a clue that the tx unit was needed for the remote. i assumed it jus worked like the older models i had. on the old one i had al i needed was to change the crystals n i was ready to go

Any friends of yours have an M8 or M11 ?? If not, any tracks close by. I'm thinkin, have some one plug their module in yours and test on their car. If all that is a NO, then poss a hobby shop could ck it. You only have a couple of choices .. FM module and rx Or Spektrum module and rx. I'd feel alot better knowing the M11 was GOOD 1st. Your a tad too far away to try mine .. lol.

You should have looked into this more . You are kinda trapped now. 2 options , try and sell it and buy a new system or this http://www.ultimatehobbies.com/istar.asp?a=6&id=SPM1002!1002&color=N%2FA&size=N%2 FA&subsize= << 'bout as good and cheap as you'll get
