Re: Problems!! 14MZ 2.4 R6014FS
Just want to jump in as I have the had same experience with 6014 totally locking out. We did not put 2 and 2 together that it might be heat but did notice the receiver was very hot. My setup does have two tuned piped in the fuselage which contribute for sure. I wonder if this might be the same issue.
Mine occured on the ground, fly at large field with a dry lake bed for the morning and a paved runway for the afternoon, was taxing the plane on the ground to the paved side when this happened, all control lost to plane it was doing donuts in the middle of the lake bed, was funny (in a sad way) to me running around the airplane trying to shut the ignition battery off to kill the motor.
I could not get the airplane to turn back on by cycling the switches. I covered it up and ran home to grab my 72mhz reciever as I wanted to keep flying. When I returned tested again and all was fine with the 2.4, could not recreate. I did switch back to 72mhz as I did not want to risk the airplane. I have plans to send in the receiver and the module but since I am running Hitec 5955's I figure I am screwed from a support perspective.
Edit- I had 31 flights on the 6014.
