    7PXR Failsafe Mystery-thoughts/advice

    Okay, we can close this one!!! Went well above 100mph last night with the Futaba GPS on my 7PXR without losing the flame. A lot of you had great advice, so don't throw stuff at me, but I *think* Tyler was the first person to mention vibration, then Rich Jones mentioned the switch. I had not done...

    SpeedWeek 2024 at Blue Lake

    Heck yeah you do! I had beds last time you were here, but now they're all occupied with a varying size range of male children. Make you a deal...whichever one of them you can convince to clean up the front yard...you can have *that* bed!!!

    SpeedWeek 2024 at Blue Lake

    Yes, Speedweek is happening! February 3rd-11th. I'll be running the event this year (hey, it only took 20 years), and I have some very qualified people enlisted to help over the 9 days. Same format as always; 2-lap and SAW. Same amazing water, same amazing people. As an added bonus, I've done...

    7PXR Failsafe Mystery-thoughts/advice

    Tyler...when you say "resonance," do you mean Rf resonance, as in matching, or a harmonic of, the Rx/Tx comm frequency, or do you mean the boat's chassis is resonating, i.e. vibrating, and screwing with the Rx's oscillator? I think you asked for a picture of my radio box. Antenna goes vertical...

    7PXR Failsafe Mystery-thoughts/advice

    Grim, are you referring to the Tx, Rx, or GPS? I have updated the Tx to the latest. Any idea if the GPS itself has firmware???

    7PXR Failsafe Mystery-thoughts/advice

    YES!!! This was actually my very first thought (after Danny told me he thought it was a failsafe issue). My thought was, since low Rx battery voltage is the only failsafe I have enabled, that the switch (same kind you have) was either vibrating or something was getting pushed around under hard...

    7PXR Failsafe Mystery-thoughts/advice

    Thanks for all the questions and advice. Haven't had internet access for a while. I'll try to answer a few things here: Grim; I don't think it's fuel related in any way. This motor has been run harder, at higher RPM's, for lots of laps. The original tank was built by John Steltzer. His...

    7PXR Failsafe Mystery-thoughts/advice

    Futaba says there’s no way the gps can affect a servo

    7PXR Failsafe Mystery-thoughts/advice

    You’re right, it is odd! The logs show distance info. I’m joking about 98mph (it really has been cutting off at 98, but I think it’s just an odd coincidence). And yes, boat is fine when I bring it in. I have no idea if I’m losing steering. I’ve tried to wiggle the rudder, but the boat has no...

    7PXR Failsafe Mystery-thoughts/advice

    Just to clarify, this radio and gps are not new. I’ve run the snot out of it for a year. Buckshot and I ran 100 laps in Atlanta a few months ago, doing some testing, using this literal same equipment (different boat). I’ve also been running it without issues in this SAW boat for 3 or 4 months...

    7PXR Failsafe Mystery-thoughts/advice

    Sorry, no. I started with an R334SBS, and switched to an R324SBS for testing. Same result on both.

    7PXR Failsafe Mystery-thoughts/advice

    Using a 2s LiFe, 1450ma. Logs never show the rx voltage dipping below 6.5v. I’ve not run with the 7pxr minus the gps. That was a gross oversight on my part. Everything is packed nicely in foam. It’ll be a couple of days before I’m home, but I’ll send pics when I get back. Speaking of logs, I...

    7PXR Failsafe Mystery-thoughts/advice

    Wanted to see if anyone else has run into anything like this. Using a 7PXR, kit Rx, and the v2 Futaba telemetry GPS. Been working on a .67 SAW boat. Finally started getting some decent speeds/passes, and the boat starts dying while at WOT, well into a pass, and sometimes within 100' of the Tx...
