Title: Radiolink 2.4 Radio Set
Post by: Shipmate60 on August 07, 2016, 06:08:04 pm

My local water is in an Industrial Park.
The lake I sail on has always had a "dead spot" for 2 different Radiolink radio sets.
Today the dead spot was still there but my set had massive interference after being switched on. Throttle full ahead to neutral over again.
Tried re-binding and the same.
The Radio was checked at home and worked faultlessly.
Any suggestions?
Next week I am trying the same model with a DX6 set.

Shame i missed out today, been a busy bee with the cars.


Will bring the pollux and mersey out during the week one evening if you want to test my Futaba signal alongside the radiolink.


Very strange as we had no issues at all last week with any of the boats on the water

check for a near by mobile phone mast, and don't forget wifi. is there a new business on the estate? has some one got an illegal booster? these things will mess with your 2.4 GHz radio.
