Anyone have any idea about how to use a Hitec Optic 6 with the Esky Lama? I tried using the crystal from my Raptor 30 in the lama RX but it didn't work. maybe wrong kind of crystal?

For the Lama, you need a single conversion FM crystal. The futaba short crystals work nicely. I have been flying mine with one for some time without any problems.
The RX in the Lama is negative shift (futaba compatible).

I can't say for sure if the GP crystal would work, though I suspect it probably would. The only type I personally have tried is the Futaba short crystal, which works great...

could you maybe send me a link to a crystal that you know for sure will work? I cant find the futaba ones in a single crystal just a set
