Default Spektrum in 3VCS transmitter

Hi,

Has anyone used spektrum pro module in the 3VCS transmitter? I am thinking of doing so, but saw on Demon's website that it won't click in properly or something? Was wondering how people have found trying to do it!

Dave

I have ran a Spektrum module in my 3VCS with no problem at all. The holding lugs are a little tight but you just make sure that is pushed in all the way till they click.

I run the Spektrum Pro in the 3VC, if you run the HRS Module for the 3VCS, rumour has it you got to run digitial servo's too.

I run Spektrum in my 3VC with no issues. I have used the system with both analogue and digital servos with no issues either!

Correct, if you use the Spektrum HRS system it will not work properly and/or will fry your servo.

If you use Spektrum Pro you use the PPM setting and you can use some analogue servos (not all seem to be compatable)

yeh, if you run the HRS Spektrum in the 3VCS you MUST use a digital servo, because you will cook the analogue one, as I found out

That will be it then ..... I'm poor so am using a second hand 3VC ..... not a shiney 3VCS (which I don't think is worth the extra anyway)

I use the Spektrum in my 3VC and it doesn't quite fit properly, it's fine but it sits a little proud and it only clips on one side. It's not loose really it won't come out even after a drop, but it's loose enough that with gentle press it sinks 2mm further in, before popping back up.
