Guys, Probably not the right place for this but, as we're talkin Nomadio... I was in a hurry hooking up my new car and plugged the battery into the "POWER" socket on the Nomadio transceiver. 2 seconds later there was a fizz and a pop, a tiny flash and a teeny weeny whisp of smoke. Needless to say, it doesn't work any more. Anyone know where I can get a new one?? I'm in the UK but I'm prepared to pay shipping from anywhere. BTW, The damage seems to be to one of the capacitors on the board. I'd appreciate if somebody could post a pic of the board as I've no way to identify it now but should be able to replace it if I can. Cheerz! Rtz |

I thought the cable in the compartment was for using the react as a pc game controller.

This is a mod I did a long time ago React thumb wheel mod Any dsm 1 ground spektrum rx will work with the nomadio as will the losi dsm rx's. I also have moved the usb jack the the slide out box, it makes it real eay to change the settings and cleans up the batt comp. I have been running a venum 5 cell hump pack 1200mh that I removed the heat shrink and folded the one battery over to make it a flat pack...best 12.00 investment made on my react.Fits in nicely,and last forever.The react is based off of voltage when it gets close to 4.8 or so it no worky so well so adding more Mh in the 4 cell config doesnt help.Going 5 cell increases voltage and hence longer run times before the radio gets funny 5 cell isnt pushing the limit and eliminates the need for a BEC Fishskins will make you custom skins for the react, see page 7 post 135 for a pic of his work on my react Fish Skins Last edited by hotwheels000; 04-12-2010 at 02:53 PM. |

| Awesome! Just check your lipo voltage everynow and then. Or try to setup the React failsafe to alert you when the rx voltage is below 6v. I tried but not too hard. I just check the lipo with a meter.

Yeah, I'll probably charge it before every comp...and we hold one every month, so I should be good.

Got my CCBEC installed in my radio. Made room for it in the handle and wired it after the switch so I don't have to worry about unplugging it all the time (I tend to be forgetful once in a while). Works great! Also got the Spektrum rx and tossed it into the Slash for a test run. Bound right up and work great as well. |
