Saturn RC Gear
« on: March 08, 2012, 08:46:07 am »
Hi

Has anyone got experience with the Saturn 2.5GHZ FHSS radio gear.

i was considering getting a 6 channel set for my Tug, I understand its made by Ripmax, comes with charging socket and trainer plug, (not that I will be using that).  I think its just a basic set, but what more do I need really.
The price is really good.

I look forward to your comments.

Aha, but he was after 6 channel....

By the way, have you seen their 35Mhz offering?  http://www.giantcod.co.uk/giantcod-35mhz-4channel-mode2-digital-transmitter-p-403778.html

£13.07p for a Tx/Rx combo!  %%  These are unbelievable prices....

Point taken DG, thinks ....must read the original post!

The 35Mhz sets sound very interesting ... but how high would you have
to 'float your boat' to be allowed to use it ?

Another thought - (yes it has been one of those afternoons!)
Could you use 35Mhz RC in a Hovercraft? - no serious answers expected on this!

35MHZ is for AIRCRAFT USE ONLY
It is illegal to use it for any other purpose
