[NSRCA-discussion] Jim Oddino or others...

[Ed Alt]

This product bulletin link below may be of interest, but it only relates to 
the AR6100 receiver.  There was a forum thread somewhere that got that 
started.  Apparently some BEC circuits drop out enough to cause the receiver 
to produce an uncommanded elevator movement.  Maybe this is related to the 
"voltage protector" thing?  Sheesh, they could at least cover it with a 
piece of heat shrink, or maybe color over the markings with a felt pen or 
something.  But if you can't wait until early May, I hear that there's this 
magical place called Radio Shack...  Red wire to the +++ side etc.  Warm up 
the iron.
