42% Products Opto Gas Engine Kill

[hollywoodjax]

Make sure your end points are at 100/100, I know if they are not up high enough then it will flicker also.. Are you sure you turn the switch on? No pune intended just trying to help.... I have used about 4 of the 42% opto kill switches. No problems to date yet... Does a servo work on the channel that you are trying to use? A gentle man I recently sold a plane to is using Futaba so I am not familiar with that radio programming.. He was having some problems setting his up but a friend helped him out.... I believe it was some programming in his radio that he had to adjust.... Hope you figure it out..

Yea, endpoints are at %100/%100 and dont get anything. Yes, I have plugged up a servo to the channel in question and it works perfectly fine, I have even tryed the kill switch lead in several ports and all end in the same result. I am getting voltage through the badger switch (have even removed the switch and plugged the battery directly to the opto kill), and I am still not getting anything.

Just curious if anyone else had a similar problem before I packed it up and sent it back for 42% to take a look at.. I will mess around with it again tonight and see if I get the same results.

I am using Rcexl Opto Gas Kill switch Version 2.0 on 50cc Gas Engine with Futaba 9-Cap 50Mhz PCM receiver with out
any problem, however yesterday I bought New Radio Futaba 10-Cap 2.4Ghz and tried to use the same Kill switch. The kill switch LED does not go ON on any channel with switch Assigned, however with movement of main two stick for Ruddr/Throttle and Elevator/Eleron the LED Glows but dies off is the stick movement is stopped. There is no mix added yet.,I could not resolve the problem. Could it be a competability issue between kill switch and 2.4Ghz Tx/Rx system

If its not doing anything it is junk... friend of mine had the same issue..
put another one in works fine..he had 2 42% that were junk got them replaced
all are working fine..

[3ddd]

+1 I have 2 of these i will give away, just pay shipping. Switched over to smartfly.

[raven04]

Wayne I'll take them.. mine works fine.. I'm using smartfly on my slick 540

[crazyjoe]

Ive run smart fly Ign. kills in all my planes for years never a problem. Cant even remember reading about anyone having a problem with Smatfly. I wouldnt use anything 42% makes in my planes.

[Wayne's World]

can you tell me if you have all the switches to null?. Also what channel and rx are you using.
