I'm using 2 x 9ch JR receivers in the model. The 4 flaps, though all on the same channel, are split into two pairs, the inboards on one rx and the outboards on the other. I am therefore using two Y leads. I must confess that I should read the packaging on the servo boxes, it states quite clearly that the programmer I have, the HPP 21 plus, will definately work on the 5xxx series servos, so the problem is obviously with me. Mike is going to help me out during this week, in the meantime I'm going to have another go and play with the "Dead Band" and see what that throws up, at least I can re set the servos to factory default if I mess up.
As far as going via a Matchbox or Weatronic receiver, I'm trying to keep things as simple as possible so there will be less to go wrong, but I shall certainly bear them in mind if we think the programmer is not the way forward. At the end of the day the model is only going to be doing flat circuits and eights so it doesn't need to be all that technical. I'll keep you posted with any progress. Watch this space. Jonesey.
