First 2 went back to SMD and were replaced for a small fee (great service by the way  ) with the diagnosis being damaged co-ax in the aerials.
So, another one goes yesterday. I'm thinking this has to be the aerial so I open the case, unplug the aerial & test it with a multimeter. Continuity (beep test) & resistance are fine on both parts - co-ax & sheath indicating the aerial is unbroken inside & no amount of wiggling will change that
Re-fitted, still no range 
I know loads of people with these receivers & no-one else seems to have had this issue... |
just out of interest what ESC you using ?
i had to send back 3x 451 rx loss signal from 15 to 20 feet so i was using speed passion reventon pro at the time in space of 8 month that it been replaced by smd under warranty.
so i decided to ditch Speed passion esc for Nosram comet esc which it been spot on since march 2014.
