Been pretty busy lately so I forgot to comment how awesome a job you did. I did get a vote in for your plane as well before the pole closed back when somebody shared the link a while back, and I did give all the others an objective look...and decided yours was still the absolute best. congrats on the win man, well earned

Thank you very much, I really appreciate it. Team work makes the dream work

I don't know, I try to diagnose and think I have it figured out then something happens. Everyone I talk to here on the forums are always telling me how their gear works so well, which is frustrating because mine doesn't, same gear. I make changes, take certain precautions, and still get failures. I ask again and everyone else has no issues. I am changing Rx brands and style of Rx again and gonna try this. I am honestly tired of this by now.

I have had these Rx's for less then 5 months, and people tell me they have had theirs for years, never a problem. I make sure the Rx's are not near metal pushrods, CF, other electronic or the battery in every plane, I still get problems. Others stuff the Rx in their planes like an after thought all tangled up in wires next to the ESC and never an issue. I fly away from power lines in plain line of sight in wide open fields, loss of signal. Others fly behind trees and buildings FPV and no issues. I just dont get why i have all these problems. I have replaced my Tx once on warranty now and gone through 5 Rx's of two different brands. Go figure

That is very puzzling. You've knocked out the two biggest variables, the tx and the rx. I know this isn't helpful but I put the rx where ever it balances the plane best. No regard to location based on electronics or moving metal parts. Never had one single moment of signal loss. That would be very frustrating, I crash enough without any help from my equipment.

I would suspect the tx but you've got a new, completely different tx under warranty so the odds of that being the problem aren't good. Maybe it's the Russians.....can you see them from your house? Aliens? Canada? Maybe you are full of iron and are causing a magnetic interference with your tx......out of ideas.

I will just make a new hobby called maiden crashes, no flights lol
