Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Helicopters / March 2007Can I test AR6100 with just transmitter?
Is it possible to test AR6100 receiver without having anything other than transmitter? I thought about powering it from a battery and using LED to see if I'm getting a signal from the transmitter but I'm not sure how to connect it. > Is it possible to test AR6100 receiver without having anything other than > transmitter?

If you hard wire the Tx to the Rx using a DSC (Direct Servo Connect) cord, you still won't know if the Rx is actually receiving as the signal (RF) section is bypassed. You don't even need to turn on the Tx with a DSC cord. You'll need a battery for the receiver (4.8volt Nicad usually) and something to plug into it, like a servo. Don't f.ck about with LED's, just plug in the thing you'd normally plug in and that'd be a servo.

I want to test range to make sure everything works fine because I had some problems with the transmitter (burned the fuse). Isn't there a way to test this without servos? >>> Is it possible to test AR6100 receiver without having anything other than >>> transmitter?

Didn't say I won't get servos, just that I don't have any right now. > I use EBW to detonate my bombs.. Are you serious? Who do you blow up? >> I use EBW to detonate my bombs.. > > Are you serious?

Why don't you wait till you get servos you dumbfck. > Why don't you wait till you get servos you dumbfck. What's wrong with you people? I don't want to wait because I want to know right away if I messed up my transmitter or not. >> Why don't you wait till you get servos you dumbfck. > > What's wrong with you people? I don't want to wait because I want to know > right away if I messed up my transmitter or not. with out a servo or an oscilloscope your stuffed possibly along with the transmitter, glass fuses don't blow for fun and what ever you shorted out has gone to a better place, especially if you have let the magic smoke out as you will know all electronic equipment runs on smoke once the magic smoke has been seen your stuffed >> Why don't you wait till you get servos you dumbfck. > > What's wrong with you people?

Borrow a servo?, although if you blew the fuse, it (the fuse) would've done its job and protected the Tx electrickery. Y'know a cheap servo can be had for less than 10 bucks too, but that's THE best way to check for range. Attach the servo to something you can see move and walk away from it while waggling the sticks. It's going to be BLOODY hard to see an LED at the extreme of even antenna down range. SignatureBeav VN 750 Zed 1000 OMF# 19 |
