Hi all Just a quick question about these 9x's that are on the R2Hobbys site I can see that reading the info they are third gen sets BUT it looks from the photo of them that they still have the 35mhz(normal extendible pull up metal) Ariel fitted and has the 2.4ghz module that fits in the back is this...

So can we get these "SmartiepaRts board" direct from Steven? Just a thought... And the R2Hobbies site is acting up on my PC at the moment Its strange I cannot load it or any of its website when on my network But when Im on my mates next door it all works fine from the same laptop so its no...

Hi Kilrah Right thanks for the clarification.. And thanks Crash as this was going to be my next question "as to where I might get a 9x from" also if you join up and make yourself a member you get another 10% off your order, Just a pity the other bits aint in stock though.. The smatie pants...

When I made my max232 one I originally used wire frame and then encased them in hot glue but the power reg I was using melted the glue so I found a small electronic kit box to put it in one. Mine for the mount I was using worked via a 9pin D from the laptop out to a RJ45 which plugged into the mount...

Hi I have a couple of 2m radios still hanging around not doing anything I might have a look into it. Here in the UK its a lot coolder than your used to lol you lucky person :) Is there sits for the building of the gear to attach to the 2m radio.. Its some time since I used the ARPS system but I bet ...

As ERSKY9X is still some time away the best would be to get/mod/use the stock radio first, then once it's done if you feel the difference is worth it you can just swap the board as it's a drop-in replacement. Opps I think I may be getting a little mixed up is there a difference between the ER9x and...

Forgot to ask whats the Radio in the upper left hand on top of the scope?

HI I also used the max232 and 5 caps for a TTL to PC connection but this was for my Astronomy mount So its nice to know it will come in handy for the radio.. If im not mistaken I also used a aurduino bluetooth module so i could get it to work wireless I will have to see if I can get the bluetooth op...

Hi

When I passed my first part of my Ham test and could use 2m and 70cms I had a radio that had the ARPS and packet radio built in and I could be followed over the internet on a map program but that was some time ago and I no longer have that radio,,

Hi, and welcome :) The first thing to do would be to read the Wiki: http://openrcforums.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page There are lots of info, both basic (what is it?) to the more detailed (even if a little outdated) user's guide. On Hobbyking you have to be fast - when some stock arrives it's usuall...

Where are you located? Some members offer their help to local people , aiding in firmware flashing, soldering. Etc. Anywhere that sells the 9x type radio and has them in stock is a good place to get one. They are all the same radio, and who ever supplies them really doesn't matter. As for firmware,...

Hi all Iv recently got a Gaui 500x Quadcopter (at a great price) but all my radios are like me old and outdated hence wont do such things as sub trim and have assignable switches that is LOL. Iv seen the Turnigy pushed and pushed via the Hobbyking website and have joined its email thingy but every t...
