    This vid just saved me a wait. Just turned on a new CT-8A and slightly scrolled as I clicked and ended up on Chinese. Your vid helped me get through the menu and reset my transmitter. Every time I watch your video's I usually find exactly what I was looking for. Thank you, sir, and great job.

    • @DoRC
      @DoRC  Рік тому +3

      I have an MT-12 coming but I actually got it with the Express LRS module. To me that's the real big news. Express LRS has been used by quad piles for quite some time LRS has been used by quad pilots for quite some time now and it's amazing. No more external antennas and basically unlimited range and very little latency.

    • @DoRC
      @DoRC  Рік тому

      Yeah the four in one module definitely is cool and adding it on would make the ultimate transmitter. Personally I'm used to swapping out my receivers so I don't really mind that and express LRS is amazing.
      My big disappointment with the MT-12 and the reason why I probably won't end up switching to it permanently is they don't seem to have any sort of provision for a camera mount which is requirement for me.

Last I looked the only place to find the receiver with gyro was Rlaarlo. At least as far as international sales go. Keeping my fingers crossed they end up taking the return.
    Also, I had the opposite experience with the battery. The AA harness worked but the Lipo wouldn’t power on.

As much as I have loved my 3PK I don't want to buy another Futaba as it would cost a fortune to replace all the receivers in my cars. My only hesitation with the CT8A is there are no quick trim controls. I found that very handy on the 3PK. How difficult is it to adjust trims on the fly with the CT8A?

    FWIW, Rlaarlo does not appear to stand behind their products or published return policy. I purchased two of these plus additional receivers after watching your video - not my first purchases from Rlaarlo - but with one transmitter defective (shuts off randomly while using or wont power on at all) and lack of receiver options, I decided to return everything and go a different route. Well within the 30 days, they refused my request and would not provide their mailing address. I’m now waiting to hear back from my second email to them, but figure you should know.

    • @DoRC
      @DoRC  11 місяців тому +1

      That's not good. I've heard mixed reviews about their customer support though it seems like that's the way it is with pretty much everybody these days. If you end up stuck with them the powering on problem is probably due to the AA batteries. I've heard some issues with them. Using a lipo fixes the problem. As far as receivers the transmitters actually made by hot RC so any hot RC receiver should work with it. They're cheap and pretty readily available.

G7P is my daily driver just because it has really good first party phone mount but it's kind of a clunky interface and not really anything special.

      I would say the screen makes it inherently quite a bit better than the Traxxas transmitter as it's easier to adjust settings. Whether or not it's better than a spectrum transmitter really depends on which transmitter you're referring to. It's going to be better than the RTR transmitters cuz it has a ton of adjustments and again the screen but some of the more advanced spectrum transmitters are pretty good as well.

      Honestly no most people will not put more than eight cars on a single remote but it's still is annoying that they put that limitation in there. It would cost them exactly $0 to make that 50 cars and if someone doesn't use the additional car is no big deal but if someone does want more than eight cars it's a problem that they didn't do it.

      @GettingthruLife It's a pretty big receiver but if you can make it fit a gyro definitely helps. You can either stick the receiver in The cutoff finger of a rubber glove and use a rubber band to seal it up or you can take the receiver apart and get some paint on conformal coating which really helps with waterproofing.

    Just a heads up, HotRC sell this transmitter \ receiver combo, and I'd suggest staying away from that version. Mine lasted 75 days and now it has started to
    1) mix the throttle forward channel with the turn left channel.
    2) from the moment i turn it on, it just holds throttle reverse at about 1200 units. You can see the phantom inputs on the screen.
    HotRC appears to have no online presence, so forget a warranty.
    I'm going with a DumboRC next time.
    I tried factory reset, that put the language into chinese, but worse: the problem crept back almost immediately.
    I'm not saying this is a bad product, but I'm saying buy the Rlaarlo version, because maybe then you can get warranty support.
    It's definitely a Tx problem, because even if i don't turn on the Rx, the Tx gets phantom inputs.
