hi,

I have a Futaba T6EXA 2.4 ghz radio. this was bought when the radio was newly launched. it has been working fine ever since.

Recently i purchased a extra receiver from tower, futaba R617FS. it wont bind to the old transmitter.

the old receiver which came with the tx works fine. tried another R617FS same problem.

whereas the new Rx's will bind with a new T6EX.

Any body having similar problem.

Seems like you need a firmware update

That seems to be the right thing to do.  There are no Futaba service centers in India, AFAIK. 

It also seems that you can get by with getting the older R606FS receivers instead, which seem to not insist on valid GUIDs.
