Default B44.1 problem...

Hi,

I have just finished my build and I have come across a problem. I am loosing signal about 10m away from me. I am guessing it is because of the cf. Does anyone know how to solve this and the tx/rx are etronix.

Cheers,
Sam

Sam make sure the batteries in the tx are fully charged, those systems dont like going under 10v, mine used to do this around that voltage

Had EXACTLY the same problem with my b44.1 a couple of months ago. I then changed the receiver and sold the car so i never found out if the signal worked better lol.

Hope you can sort it out.

Thanks.

can't say it's the cf in the b44.1 as I don't run my aerial outside the car with futaba gear. it's just slid into a bit of heat shrink out the way and left in the car.
