Re: A Quick Hello
Just ordered my TX (someone in china has literally sold me a lemon). At the moment I am budget constrained (Between jobs) so will probably play around with some servos I have.

Re: A Quick Hello
Hello!
First question. What would be a good transmitter/ reciver combo to start off with? Thinking 2.4 ghz and 3 or 4 channel but not too expensive.
