Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Air Models / July 2008Brands of transmitters, mix and match?
How well can different brands of transmitters and receivers be combined? What about different brands of receivers and servos? I have a JR Sport S400 transmitter, and want to upgrade the micro receiver to the next larger size for greater range, I also probably want to upgrade the sub-micro servos to the next larger size for greater torque. I am considering the Hitec brand for these components. > How well can different brands of transmitters and receivers be combined? > What about different brands of receivers and servos?

Make sure the receiver is Positive shift or put it on pos. shift if it's phase shift selectable or get one of the ones that automatically pick the correct shift configuration. A Berg Rx. is small and has long range, you'd buy a pos. shift. I'm assuming here but, if your putting it on a Slow Stick the push rods and control surfaces may need to be beefier with a larger motor and larger radio gear. IMHO the micro stuff should be enough. If I may ask, what are you planning? mk >> How well can different brands of transmitters and >> receivers be combined?

The first alternative will be an upgrade to a brushless motor. Then I am considering an upgrade that will give me roll capability, I am currently leaning towards tailerons. I may eventually try elevons and different wings. When I try different wings I would like to make these scratch-built, and try different alternatives of the basic airfoils. Hitec will work great. > How well can different brands of transmitters and receivers be combined? > What about different brands of receivers and servos?
