I needed a extra Spectrum receiver for a new delta jet I had just built. At this time of year money is tight so it looked as if I was going to have to try the orange RX, which I frankly did not fancy as I confess I like everything to be all the same gear…..
Behold I looked on E-bay and there it was a brand new Spectrum receiver exactly the same as my original… but only $10.00……. bought it … fitted it........... and …. 'well the photo speaks for its self'.
Please note… this is the receiver I bought from E-bay …. Looks good, not cheap at all .....exactly the same as my original….
At about 200 yards distance it decided to STOP being a receiver…. And became a ballast weight helping my aircraft fly at speed, straight to the scene of the accident…..
‘It’s a FAKE’… and I only saw cheap…. Please don’t do as I did…. Be careful….this item did not come from the far East ... from where i buy batterys and motors, servo ect which all work fine... but Ireland.
Can I just say I have now bought an orange RX which works exactly the same as my original spectrum product…. And costs less than the ‘FAKE’….. We live and learn.
