Rx Plug Mod / To Program The Mmm.... - 06.13.2008, 10:34 AM

OK GUYS,
i was thinking of getting a rx plug(6" long wires) just like the one on the MMM , an splice into the MMM's rx wire and SODIER the other plug/wire to the MMM rx wire...

THAT WAY I DONT HAVE TOO KEEP UNPLUGING THE RX PLUG TO CHANGE SETTINGS ON THE MMM....an i wont need to open my losi's rx box every time i need to program my MMM.....

I think this is a mod alot of people can do/an will like...
What do u guys think???

I'm not sure that will work since you're still backfeeding the signal wire on the Rx. The Castle Link probably won't be able to recognize the MMM.

I don't understand, but I don't think I like it.

I was thinking the same thing. You might do better to just run a small extension to the outside of your receiver box and just unplug it there.

That would be the easiest.

Yeah, the receiver output signals would be conflicting with the link signals. Even when "idle" the receiver is still outputting a signal (around 1.5ms pulses) and not just floating. Maybe use a micro single-pole/double-throw switch on the signal wire would work...

You could just use a 3 wire switch.

something like this could work, though I'm not sure what plug type is on the MMMhttp://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXL287&P=ML

yeah just an extension so you have a place to tap into. Same problem with traxxas waterproof Rx boxes.
