I hope my speculation is wrong. The way its available channel partitions is not 20kHz per RF channel. My interpretation to that is a system which demands a compatible system in safe operation. Question to ask before committing an order is this. Will it survive a 2nd and/or third Tx operating at

Since, experimenting with 5C is much easier to proof the direction of the root cause. I would strongly recommend us to rule out 5C before we commit to ferrite. Does that make sense? YK RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News. Send "subscribe" and "unsubscribe" requests to [EMAIL

Mark, If you follow my early post close enough, you may find that (0.01 to 1) to (0.001 to 1) dia to length ratio is the range I would use comfortably. Not only that too small dia. is bad for band selectivity, it is far too fragile in this harsh environment. If copper tape is used, width to

Wire size is always put in relationship to its wave length 0.01:1 is a comfortable ratio. 0.001:1 may cause a mild concern of bandwidth. That will generate band selectivity and can cause some channel are more effective than another across the RC band. Over all wire size variation can cause much
