Re: reciever range I just replied to you PM 43. The clone DSM2 RX's are totally different and the range may be far less. What bothers me more is their reliability. There have been many posts about dud's, poor range, etc. I wouldn't trust any of my planes to them. |

Re: reciever range There have been a few static tests of the AR6100 on RCG and WF which showed the range to be anywhere between 2.5 to 4.5 km with a clear line of sight. I have never had a signal loss with my AR6100 (and 6110's) and I've had them pretty far out. However, I have never gotten anywhere close to 2.5km... I would loose sight of the plane first! When flying 2.4, range is more affected by RF 'shielding' than distance. The wavelength is so short that any metallic object like motors, battery packs, heli frames, etc as well as carbon fibre can actually shield the signal from the antenna. The full range RX's overcome this by using multiple antennas placed in two or more locations. 'Antenna diversity' in RF speak. Note: On the AR500/600, the longer coaxial antenna lead is not the entire antenna, only the last 3cm is. Hence, you can separate them for antenna diversity. IMHO, use the Parkflyer RX's for small models under 48" WS and smaller heli's. Anything bigger (or more expensive) should get a full range RX like the AR600, AR6200, AR7000 etc. |

Re: reciever range Agree with Mogman about not flying beyond visual range. They are after all a "Park Flyer receiver". That is ment to mean a "Ball Park" and not Algonquin Park. lol |

Re: reciever range I'm not sure what the actual range is, but I have quite a few of the ar6100's and have had no range issues. Being that they are small(40 inch-ish)planes, I don't fly past the point that they become hard to see. |
