Transponder mounting
 

Where have people mounted their transponders in the Cat SX?

I've got an AMB transponder that's going to sent away to be cloned at MRT and wondering where people are mounting them.

Pics would be nice too.

Thanks

I have a Micro Spektrum SR3500 RX coming and I'm tempted to put the MRT unit next to the RX.

I use to put it next to lipo and servo, micro rx in between pt and aerial mount

i had my amb pt on top of the servo an mrt one will fit on top of the servo no probs

That's similar to what I'm thinking

7.5
TekinRS
MRT PT / Micro RX
Servo

mattys is on the top deck right between the esc and lipo

Got a sanwa servo so not mounting on that due it not being perfectly flat. Thought about the top deck, but next to the RX should be nice and tidy.

I have got it stuck vertically behind my steering servo, I have a low profile Futaba fitted so there is plenty of room.

I have had no lap counting probs with it being mounted like this.

Transponders should be mounted flat, this is what the BRCA say.;)
Mine is on the servo, never had a problem.

Ah, it seems to work ok for me, maybe im missing some laps when Im racing, thats why I dont make the A final! :p

Laying flat could be the way to go! on top of the servo for me then!

The mrt ones fit better without lugs?

the mrt one should fit with or without the lugs no problem i had to cut the lugs of on my amb pt but the mrt one is half the size so should'nt be a problem

I have ordered the MRT PT without the lugs and I hope it'll fit nicely next to the Spektrum Micro 3500

My MRT sits on the main chassis between the servo and ESC, parallel to the receiver as there is loads of room - no problems at all

My MRT fitted easily on the chassis, even with one of the bigger Spektrum receivers.

Cool sounds like it's going to be a good fit with the micro and MRT without any lugs

Like I said in an earlier post they are best flat, but also as low as possible is best!!!

Yup cheers.

Sorry for the questions, but if it's going to be done it HAS to be done right.

David, Titchfield has an AMBRC system coming, come down and race?

I think what we'll try and do is organise a day spring next year. Get it advertised and get a few more people along.

I would really like that!!! I have been there once a few years ago, its a good track! I may possibly try to get a few of us down there this winter. Believe it or not this is the slow part of our race year!!! But it would be good to come race there again!!!:thumbsup:

If the weather isn't too bad get down for the 7th ;)

More Cat SX's the merrier!

Will do!!! And I will be racing 4wd as I did 2wd last time there, in the ice, haha, was still good fuin!!!
