Robbe F14 Navy 40mhz to 75 mhz
« on: May 22, 2012, 07:38:11 pm »

I have been informed that the Robbe F14 Navy is no longer available in 75 mhz. Does anyone know if one could convert the F14 Navy from 40 mhx to 75mhx.
I spoke with Tony at Radio South and he couldn't do it. Any ideas I live in the US
Thanks John

Surely you'de be best off converting to 2.4ghz? http://www.modelboatmayhem.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=36090.0

I'm going to get mine done when finances allow.

If conversion consists of replacing the RF module, and the locals are converting their 75MHz sets to 2.4GHz, it is possible that there are 75MHz modules around surplus to requirements.  Maybe asking on RCGroups could expose your question to more US modellers.

Hi John,
Where are you located?
I have my nearly new, mint in the box Robbe F-14 75MHz radio up for sale.
I comes with a Super Dean's battery plug but no battery.
I was using a Hyperion 9.6 volt LiFe transmitter battery pack.
http://www.hyperion-world.com/products/product/HP-FG305-1600-3S
The radio was only used around 10 occasions and has never been dropped.
You can also convert the TX to a Spectra synthesized 75MHz module, if you so choose.
