Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Land Models / May 2007Radio Question about Receivers and Crystals
I have a TC4 RTR package from Team Associated. I also have an Aitronics MX3 remote. However I do not have the receiver or crystals. I am trying to complete the radio setup to replace the stock radio in my car and I have a couple of questions. 1. My remote freq #87, it is a 75mhz radio system. I need a receiver that can do freq #87 right? 2. How do the crystals come into play? Do I need freq#87 crystals? Can I use different crystals in my radio and whatever receiver I buy? 3. If I wanted to go to my local track and someone else was on 87, would I be able to swap crystals and use a different channel? Thanks, > 1. My remote freq #87, it is a 75mhz radio system. I need a receiver > that can do freq #87 right? Yes. It needs to be airtronic's compatiable and 75MHZ. There's two ways to do it: Buy an Airtronics 75mhz receiver and a channel #87 crystal. You can also buy a Novak XXL that is airtronic's compatiable and a channel 87 crystal. You can also buy a synthesized Novak receiver XXXL, and just dial in channel #87. > 2. How do the crystals come into play? They are made in FM and AM, in 75mhz and 27mhz (USA(. You need crstals made ofr your radio system. >Do I need freq#87 crystals? You need crystals that are made for 75mhz Airtronic radio in channel 87. > Can I use different crystals in my radio and whatever receiver I buy? they need to be made for your radio though. This company has more affordable crystals than the stock ones: http://www.performancedevices.com/ > 3. If I wanted to go to my local track and someone else was on 87, > would I be able to swap crystals and use a different channel? Yes, that's the whole point. If you go to a track always have more than one channel just in case someone might be using your channel. : > 1. My remote freq #87, it is a 75mhz radio system.
