can you get a module to work with these recievers

[eagle4]

Hey gang, I've recently upgraded from a cheap hobbyking radio up to a Taranis, I was just wondering if it was possible to get a module that would allow me to use my old receivers.

This is the receiver.

I know there are numerous modules for lots of different protocols, like dsm2 etc, just not sure of the details of this particular receiver and if a module would work.

fingers crossed

Looks like they make a Futaba module but I don't see anything in a JR style, which is what the big T would take. Try a wider search for FHSS 2.4ghz Technology. You still might get lucky.

Just an idea but what about the fatuba to jr converter board from flytron?

vk2dxn, thats a pretty nifty product. thanks for the link mate

xuzme720, which futaba module were you looking at? i cant work out which module would work with that reciever.

How many of these receivers do you have. It might be more economical to dump them on the RCGroups classifieds and replace them with FrSky receivers.

The one I saw was a Corona, but I also came across this one which might be ok short range...

The Corona was like $40+ so it would probably be cheaper to convert your existing stuff to an Orange module and Rx's.

If you went and got the taranis (I really want that radio) then why sell your self short

The Taranis works with the X and D Rx's with the built in 2.4. He needs the module for his existing Rx's.
