MGM Compro 16018 died

[ncalenda]

You guys are not going to believe this, I was emailing back and forth with Petr at MGM, and he said my problem was my minimal throttle position was higher then 1.2ms, which he said won't work.

So, I tested with a traxxas radio and receiver and bingo, it worked!!

Now, I have another thread that my Quark was cutting out, I'm starting to think maybe either the radio or the receiver is the problem. That is what caused me to reprogram the 16018, and which caused it to never work again, since the min value was too high.

Now, what to do, do I get a new radio?? I have wanted a 2.4G for a while.

If I was to consider a new radio and receiver, which one has worked well with the MGM controllers? I may just do that anyway, but before I spend the money I want to make sure it will work with it. Does the Spektrum work well with this controller?

Could you tell me what's the minimal trottle position??
And what's the relation between the minimal trottle position and the time in ms
Because my MGM is suppose to arrive this week and i have a Futaba 3PM FASST 2.4, and i began to be very nervous about that

the only thing thats not compatible will be the hrs mode. i had to switch back to ppm. other than that my radio and esc work in perfect harmony!

But how can i know if my min and max trottle is OK This is suppose to be list in the Tx manual???

And yes tallyram, the first time i've try my FASST, she was on HRS mode and the servos emited a bizard sound and was very hot, and once i've switch to PPM, all return OK.
I think HRS mode is for digital servos.

correct, all i use are digitals. i was just letting you know that hrs won't work with the mgm, so it won't matter for you.
