i just picked mine up and i tried plugging in the servo into the reciever and it seems not to fit. im afraid to press to hard b/c i dont want to ruin the reciever or the servo plug. any ideas whats wrong

normally problems like this work themselves out, but have you tried flipping the plug around? They only work one way.

06yz250f · 08-20-2008, 11:02 AM

ya i tried that. one side the corners are angled other side is squared.

helhedded · 08-20-2008, 11:08 AM

got any pics?

06yz250f · 08-20-2008, 11:11 AM

ill try and get some. what do you want to see exactly?

06yz250f · 08-20-2008, 11:14 AM

so it goes on but their is still about half the pins on the reciever showing. its a fairly snugg fit. i just need to know if it is supposed to go farther on not?

helhedded · 08-20-2008, 11:19 AM

it needs to fit snug. push it all the way down.

06yz250f · 08-20-2008, 11:22 AM

thanks for your quick help. i was just a little nervous to do it because all this equipment is so expensive.

I have a 6I also and it is a very snug fit with all the plugs in there. I know I have to push a little harder to get my plugs to seat all the way.

how do you have your servos, esc, plug in to your reciever? its a little more confusing since its a airplane reciever instead of a car reciever.

Can't tell you off the top of my head. When I get home I can let you know, but I have rewired my TX differently than the way they come. They work virtually the same, you just have to find which switch is ALE, ELe and Rudders. I beleive the manual will tell you. The other way is to plug it in and use a servo to see which switch it what. Just keep moving it from plug to plug until you find the righ one.

ok so i have another question. i was reading the instructions on linking (binding) the reciever to transmitter. it shows like an on off switch in the picture where you plug the plug into to bind them together. well i dont have the on off switch thing like shown in the picture....? did something not come with it? i wanna get everything sorted out before i get my crawler

also instead of making another post can someone explain to me what the difference between ac/dc currents? im getting a charger, all i need it to do is plug into an outlet. i wont be charging out of my truck. needs to be a lipo charger. kinda wanna stay below or around 100 bucks. do not want to spend 140 on the hyperion.

linking is for heli s ok, use one servo and look at them all , omg you are new lol ok ac dc ( ac is for car or a 12 volt source ) and DC it a home plug for the wall but just get one that has them both.

Nabil · 09-17-2008, 12:30 AM

^^wow that was wrong^^

ac is your wall socket
dc is your car battery

i agree that you should get a charger with both. however you will be hard pressed to find a charger that has ac capabilities that does not have a dc provision aswell

My charger vote is for an e-station BC6,
A HS645 plug will have no probs fitting a spectrum RX,
You don't need a switch or a y harness to do a bind, you just need the TX, the RX, a reciever pack (4 or more cells) and a bind plug (it should come with the set otherwise you can make one by connecting the Signal wire to the -ve wire on a servo plug.
