Default EV5U too close to 2.4 GHz receiver? Interference?

Hi All,

Any concerns about placing an EV5U too close to a receiver? The natural progression on my control board is leaving my EV5U placed about 3 inches away from my Futaba 6014 receiver. Will I have interference concerns and issues? Or Should I plug away confident that it is not going to be a problem? Thanks!

Shaz, I have had no problem in the past doing this. Never had any interference. Attached is a photo of a Hawk I did where the two were close together.
What about the Hunter?

Never had anyone report interference issues with an EV5U-PRO/EVO, regardless of mounting location.

Ok, GREAT to hear. Thanks Todd and Danno!

Bill the AW Hunter is on the radar. I am not keen about All I hear about the AW models being so prone to static and flameouts due to the manner and ingredients in their composite layup. Up here at 5500 its MEGA-dry and very high in static.

When static issues surfaced 2-3 years ago and turbine reps were running around trying to blame UAT's, Air Bubbles, and space aliens, we were the first and hardest hit. Seems like 15% humidity, 5500 feet, and 90 degree temps cause a lot of static.... NOT a very attractive thought when you are pilotting around a $10,000+ Hunter

Still meditating on it

Shaz
