I was only browsing ebay for receivers for my 40mhz am system. I have a huge bill to pay before i can buy anything too costly yet. Il stick with the 40mhz for a while yet.  :cheers:  :bigsmurf:

I tought you were going to buy a 2.4ghz for St Ann`s
That`s why I gave you them links...

I can understand the cash low at the mo..

But for you ,
you need to check that out I think 40mhz am system  ..

I have a top of the range 40mhz fm and it let me down in ballymoney..
I was flat out and the car went mad and hit the wall but I was lucky got away with it .
Then after that 2.4ghz  was the way to go so it will not happen again..
Pat healy has a upgrade of my handset now 40mhz fm and he was not happy with that..
That`s why we went to 2.4ghz it was costly but worth it in the long run.

My 40mhz works fine in the club but diff story in ballymoney and St Ann`s..
.(But we will test it in the mill to make sure bud..)

I think your going by our track in fermoy and you have yet too see how its done in St Ann`s in dublin...
Your up 10ish feet from the track in the air then you need to know will your handset do the job.

one week before the race we are going to the mill to test the cars so then we will see and any probs with them we will sort it out all going....well. :cheers:  :cheers:
