Transponder troubles - 10.14.2006, 08:56 AM

Ive started racing my G2R at an indoor track near me. The only problem is I cannot get their transponders to work on my truck.
I have fitted it in various places on the shell but with no success
The Geezer in race control recons that its because my truck gives off too much interference :eek: I'm not sure I believe that myself, but even so there must be a real reason.
where do you guys that race fit yours, any help would be greatly received :027:

Have you considered an AMB personal transponder?

Try to mount it on the body, inside. Most guys have it on the windshield inside. Works just fine.

I actually had interferance issues with my nitro truck once when I had it mounted on the inside of the body above the RX...Try to keep it as far away from the RX and UBEC as possible.

cheers guys, I have tried a few places windsheild, bonnet (hood) and along the side of the truck. Infact the shell is starting to look like a tea bag.
you may be onto something squee, as all the locations Ive tried are up front near the raidio box and ubec. I will try the rear of the shell next week and see if it works any better.
Failing that I could tie it on a peice of string and tow it behind me :032:

I actually lost a damn race because of the transponder not counting all my laps...I know (as well as the guy that "won") that I won in actuality because he flamed out and I passed him...Either way, we both bumped up to the A-main, so its all good...Just be sure it's counting ALL of your laps...

At that point, the nuclear reactor can turn out handy
