Default Spektrum module

I know, i know. Shouldn't be thinking this, however i have lots of cheap BNF's and would like to still fly them without putting expensive futaba rx's in.

Which is the correct spek module for the 14mz??

Cheers.

Maybe ask this in the Spektrum forum area? I am not even sure they still make the module, I could be wrong on that. It attaches to the back of the TX and takes a PPM feed off the trainer plug.

Most are actually picking up a used DX6 somewhere to use with the BNF stuff. Cheaper than the module.

Might just keep the dx7 for this then, can't be bothered with the extra hassle.

Agree with kcordell that DX6i could be a better choice.

But if you really want the module, here it is:

I have one and it works great. You can find used one for less than $50 on various RC forums.

Default Spektrum module

My 14MZ has a spectrum modual Taft plus into the training port. But it's to complicated for me to use

this is probably the best and easiest spektrum module out
http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showt...modul+aurora+9

works with any radio via trainer port of the rf module port of the radio
you can pick the transmitter brand and it will remap the channels to spektrum standards. Which has always been the pain with use a spektrum module.

and it is both dsm-2 and dsm-x. Unlike most that are dsm-2 only
