wow 2.4 for £60 that is impressive do they do a stick set ?

Chris Green · #4 15-01-2008

Its £60 from modelsport too, and a few other online retailers. i haven't seen one yet, but the price looks promising.

It would be interesting to see how much the receiver is too.

I have one but have not tested it out just yet.The 3 channel receiver is very small

Had one in my hand today,looks great value for money,10 model memory,digital trims,it also includes 2x AS17 servos,4 AA cell holder and switch harness.
Shame there isn`t a stick version though

hi everone,

any experiences?

cheers!

I,m having a problem getting the steering servo rotation the right way round.

The instruction manual is terrible....

Anyone help

From what i gather you have to hold the steerwheel to the right or left for 2-3 minutes until it switches over but i,m having no joy

BTW the receivers are now available to buy separately but i,m not sure if they will work on other sysems.

The servo reversing is a pain in the butt on the Acoms Hayabusa, I THINK, from memory you have to adjust the trim on the channel you wish to reverse all the way to its maximum setting, then hold it over until it beeps.

yeo i had the same problem you have to hold the wheel all the way to the right and its the button above the wheel to the lowest number and it isnt 2-3 mins as said it takes a few seconds took us ages to work that out damd rubbish instruction that have shoddily been changed to english

just done it on mine
turn the wheel to the right and push the button above it left till it goes down to 20 and keep holding it takes about 5 seconds

i was going to buy one and put all its guts inside my ff3,why do they only bring wheel versions out?..theres a big gap in the market for a cheap stick on 2.4
