[NSRCA-discussion] Failed 2.4 < or was it..

[Dave]

Myself, Jason S, and Don S were judging when Rick had the problem.  A couple
of us suggested switching the TX on/off, but Rick was already doing it.

 

The TX was a JR X9303 on 2.4.  Initial thoughts regarding the cause of the
problem are that the TX suffered some damage when it got wet in the prior
days T-storm (one of the menus had some unrecognizable characters in the
display).  Rick was able to borrow a like TX (from me) and RX (from Ed Alt)
to complete the contest without further incident.

 

Regards,


Dave Lockhart, Team JR

Jay, I know Rick Wallace had to off/on his transmitter to regain his plane.
I didnt pay attention at the time whether Rick was 2.4, but checking my line
sheet it shows him on Ch 49 so unless someone else had a problem as well I
geuss Rick can update you when he gets back.

The Nats News mentioned a contestant who lost contact with his plane on 2.4
GHz. He had the presence of mind to turn the TX off, then back on, to regain
contact. What quick thinking! 

 

Does anyone know the brand of TX?
