Hello guys. I know this probably was answered somewhere over the net, but I just can't find the info . The thing is: I bought Frsky telemetry modules for my TGY 9x radio, so I had spare turnigy module and RX. So I took apart my old Hitec Optic Sport 6, took out old 40MHz RF guts, and soldered in guts from TGY module. Everything works fine so I decided to sell the radio, I have no use for it. One guy answered my ad and wants to use it for 2,5m sailplane. He seems not very familiar with rc systems ("2,4 ? errr.... that is with those short antennae right?"). Im not sure if those Turnigy module and RX are enough for that big airplane. I flew only parkfliers, not more than 200m away. How high/far can one see 2.5m glider? . I'd feel really bad if he'd loose it because of radio. I consider not selling him.
I hope someone will chime in with some constructive advice or range data .
Richard
