| Cars Twitchy with DX3R
I got a DX3R recently, along with several cars. All Are running Spektrum RXs, as are all of my current vehicles. The problem is that in every case, the vehicles (steering and throttle) twitch and jump with this radio. In every case I've tried binding the cars to my other radio and they work flawlessly. Any thoughts what might cause a car(s) to act possessed when connected to this radio? Jim |

One of the reason I would never own a Spektrum. Not sure if they fixed it in later models but all my on-road buddies that own this radio have the same issue. They all changed to Airtronics or Futaba.

I've owned numerous Spektrum radios and have raced with hundreds of others who do. Never had a problem. Its not about brand names. It about a specific problem with a single unit. So, anyone ever seen this sort of behavior?

I've had the same thing happen to a dx3r. Not exactly sure what is going wrong but it is fixable. The down side is it will happen again... Try your local hobby shop they might know how to fix it but other then that you have to send it in to spectrum for them to fix it...

I can't remember as it's been awhile since i have used my Spektrum specific radio, Do you have the option of entire radio reset? possibly resetting the radio than rebinding everything fresh? Hopefully you can figure it out. |

Tried resetting individual channels and/or rebinding with 4 different rx's. all receivers work with my other radio. The only things I can think of now are frame rate differences or a busted radio. Or maybe...a screwed up antenna?1
