Do you know anything about radio control tx and rx?
I need to understand the basics of radio control equipment after coming across a Sanwa challenger transmitter which looks brand new but i'm guessing almost 15yrs old?
The box info says digital proportional FM, 6 channel 35mhz ch73 and i have got my head around that bit but there is tx only and 1 servo.
I will need a rx, does this need to be Sanwa and a specific one or will any sanwa rx work?
If i purchase a used equipment which has servos fitted, do these have to be changed to sanwa and again, must they be specific ones that are compatable?
Is this Tx worth bothering with or should i just junk it for something new?
yes you need a receiver to control the model all it has to be is 35mhz and most servos are universal you might have to trim the plug a little so it will fit in the recevier just dont plug the servo in backwards or you will short out the servos
but seeing as how this is an airplane/heli 6ch setup and you only have a transmitter and a servo it would probley be cheaper and easier just to buy another transmitter/receiver i'm not sure with 6 ch air radios but with 2/3ch land radio most the time the transmitter/receiver and the servos all come in one package
if you want an idea on prices check out HorizonHobby.com they are the closest to most hobby shops around my area
