Hi friends,

I have recently joined this forum I have been using my old futaba 4 channel RC on 70 MHz frq.

I have recently acquired a skyfly 2.4GHz TH9X transmitter and receiver I am looking for help for the following
1) which servo should I purchase and can any one suggest where do I purchase it from
2) How do I set up the transmitter and the receiver as there are a lot of setting and function mentioned in the manual which I am not aware and which were not used in my old RC
3) what battery and charger should I use for the TX & RX
4) What is modulation Indicator and what does PPM & PCM stand for and what are it's use.

I will be very thankful if some of you can kindly help me out with my quires.

Hi Shantanu,

These are some of my views on the questions asked.

1) The Servos depends on the plane you are selecting for it. HXT 900 is a good servos for a glider or small electric Trainer. Futaba S3003 or 3004 are good for the Nitro trainer. There are a number of On line shops that sells these in India now. Please look at the Hobby stores in India as a link in the forum.
2) Please find an experienced person who can guide you on the Flysky transmitter in your local area. There is a manual that is available. If you donot have hard copy then look at the On line manuals and they will tell you how to operate. First try the basic functions that you must know how to use like Trims, dual rates, exponential, reverse and others. Then you can go to the complicated ones like mixes and others.
3) I use a LIFe 9.6V Battery on my transmitter which I got from Hobbyking. These require a separate charger. Some have tried the 11.1V Lipo battery also but I would not recommend it if you are using the Flysky module.
4) For 2.4 Ghz the mode should always be ppm. PCM and PPM selection was used for the older radios where there were pcm and ppm receivers available on the Mhz frequency band.

Enjoy your flying
Thanks
