Re: Powerbox 'Royal' Spectrum in over 20kg models?

Thanks Brian, Features – “Integral Spektrum 2.4DSM2 twelve-Channel Receiver” Integral means – “Essential or necessary for completeness”.

Re: Powerbox 'Royal' Spectrum in over 20kg models?

Sometimes better asking the makers – Hello Tim, We have had many of pilots in Germany, France and U.K. they take the PB Royal Spektrum for models over 25 kg, we have this limit in Germany and France.

Re: Powerbox 'Royal' Spectrum in over 20kg models?

Martin – please could you indicate where on the Powerbox Manufacturers instruction sheet it “Clearly describes” that “The Powerbox Royal Spektrum has one receiver?
