Mini remote ppm patchy signal

come join us here. we are having fun :joy:

SO replaced wire and batteries and the signal is even worse I guess I need a new receiver

Ive seen this around but don’t know the reliability of it but you could try adding a ferrite bead to the cable.

What exactly is that

So come to conclusion that receiver is broken

Was wondering if I could use any 2.4ghz receiver or has to be for this remote

Also could anyone link one

There are some linked in the thread.

I have run across bad receivers before, but they didn’t have these symptoms. Not saying it’s not broken. Those bad receivers I’ve come across USUALLY don’t work or power on once the bind plug is pulled.

So sometimes it decides to power up and often it doesn’t I have to put in the cable a couple times before it powers on

Also do you know where I can and buy just the receiver from

It’s in that thread in post 1. I don’t want to put the link here again in case it changes, then it only has to be changed in 1 place.

Sounds like a bad cable. You say you tried more than 1 cable?

The remotes are cheap on ebay/aliexpress, about $25-30usd. They’re sold split, about $15 each, but I dunno it’s so cheap, and good to have spares, no?

wow this is the cheapest I’ve ever seen

Might have to grab a few.

ebay UK search link:

Even cheaper on alie wow

Just software developer things lol

SO i need a jst-ph-2.0 which goes into the receiver on the other end

Anyone know where I can buy that

wanted your suggestions:

over last couple months i have bought tons of remotes and all have broken or died

vx1: receiver broke and they dont sell spares

nanox: charge port broke

mini remote: receiver broke

what do you guys think i should go for now

I see 3. Is 3 a ton?

These remotes are cheaply made, so they’ll break with abuse (or just use sometimes). I’d say get a few minis, I think they offer the best compromises.

PS I’m doubtful the receiver broke, leaning toward wiring fault, which may follow you to the next remote.

I am liking the colour VX2. I’m possibly going to get a few extras next time when I get a few parts.


This is the monochrome version but I think the colour version will be available soon.
