 |  Tx Maintenance...?
For the radio experts, how often should I complete a maintenance routine on my transmitter, apart from the usual battery care/replacement? Does anyone recommend sending it in to Futaba for detailed cleaning, parts check-up? If not, what do I look for to make sure everything is okay! If you care, I own a Futaba 9CAP, purchased new about 3 years ago. Thanks all, Marc B
