Transponder possition
Another daft question by me....quite a reputation im building me thinks!?!
Where is the best place to fix a transponder in the Cat? I dont have a PT but wondered where the safest place to fix a club transponder is? In the good old days we used to pin it under the wing, back then they were that heavy you could pull a wheely! Cheers again, cAp'nslo |

I mounted mine on a lexan folded bracket that sat on the top deck (to avoid cutting a hole in the bodyshell) Was OK until I fitted the transponder on it's side to gain better belt clearance - at which point it missed a few laps.
It now sits in the wing. |

My PT is mounted on top of the top deck just behind the front window. Never had any problems with missed laps

My PT is mounted underneath the top deck - super stealth

G, so is mine Inside black heatshrink
Have to be a little careful mounting it underneath though, depending on where your receiver is, and which receiver you use. When i was running NiMh at nationals last year, with KO 302 reciever, with PT under top deck i had massive interference (i.e couldn't drive car in practice at southport!). On top of top deck it was fine. Just that 5mm or so move made a massive difference. Now i'm running LiPo, receiver is a touch further away from front of car/hence PT and all is fine with it under top deck.

I did have mean underneath the top deck for the stealth look but change to top for easier removal to other car . Plus also like the reassurance of being able to see the LED on PT when switched on..

About 99% of the PT's in Cats that I see are on the servo, mine as well.
A few guys have them on the top deck |
