Can anyone tell me if the 4 channel 2.4ghz Planet Receiver,will work with an ordinary Planet 5 radio please?
Apparently they are made for aircraft,but the so are the normal 6 channel receivers.The pins on the receiver are in a different position? Thanks,
Mick

Yes Mick, but you only get to use the main four channels on the transmitter not the switched 5th one.

How's the hips going??

Thanks Mike,
They are much cheaper to buy than the normal ones and will be ideal for most purposes.

Three very reasonably priced 4 channel receivers now ordered and on their way!
Am I really going to get 4 of my models working? Now that is a first for me,as I am not known for putting them in the water!! As those of you at Blackpool and Warwick will know when I am trying to manoeuvre round the other lifeboats on the pool!!

I'm much the same Mick I currently have 5 models that have never seen anything but test tank water .
I do prefer building rather than the hassle of loading them and carting them to the lake.

Keep on building.

I'm not alone here then Very Happy

My first build ( New beginnings, Fast Patrol Launch) was finished last November and it still hasn't seen even a test tank Rolling Eyes

I must admit also that I get more from the task of building but having never had a go with an RC model of any kind this could change Laughing
