Can you guys with the 2.4 JR set up please post some pics, I would like to see how you guys installed the satellite RX in your heli, I'll be doing a friend's set up, so any help or suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanxs in advance. The heli will be a Raptor Titan 50

No pics, but I used double sided tape and put the main Rx on the front of the servo rack with the plugs to the left (exhaust side) of the chopper with the antenna vertical, and put the remote Rx under the battery tray with the antenna horizontal. It seems to work pretty good like that, and the Rx is light enough that double-sided foam tape holds it nicely.

I just put the main receiver in foam on the tray like any other receiver, then used that zeal tape http://www.heliproz.com/prodinfo.asp?number=138006 and put the satelite antena on the back of the throtle servo on my 50, on my 90 the satelite antena is on the top of the servo frame forward enough so the pitch arm wont hit it.

I like to get the 9 inch cord for the remote and put it far back by the gyro with the rx stuck to the front of the servo tray wires strait up.

Yup, that's how I did it too. The farther apart the two receivers are the better. I have been using velcro to hold the Receiver in place. The velcro provides some padding. Seems to work fine, however I don't do 3D or ny high G manuevers that might pull the receivers loose..if that is even possible.

yes it is possible. One of the guys flying at our field has jet airplanes and noticed during testing on the ground, the remote receiver came disconnected. This caused complete loss of control. Ensure the connection is solid and I'd even recomend securing it somehow, perhaps with a dab of hot glue.
