Two questions on this system.
1st what is required in order to allow cycling of the trans. batteries without deconstructing the radio? I have an accu-cycle plus that I use for rec. Batts. I have been told that the company must remove a diode in order to allow this to work.
2nd can the Nicad batteries that came with the radio be replaced with NiMH packs and which packs are OK to use as replacement.
Thanks

Hi Bowmaker,
You may either send the radio in to have a Polyswitch installed on the radio or you may purchase FUTM4000 (Polyswitch) from your hobby dealer and you may install this yourself on an out of warranty radio.
Other than purchasing the polyswitch, you would need to physically remove the battery each time you need to cycle it.
NiMH packs are fine to use in the radio, HCAM6363 is a good pack to use.
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,
