Futaba Radio Repair

[Brandon Atwell]

Snapped the antenna and wire on my Futaba 4PLS transmitter, is it possible to get that repaired through Futaba? Whats the average turn around time for anyone that has?

Thanks everyone,

Brandon

I was able to find the part online and with a

Soldering iron it only took a few minutes to repair.

Part on order, thanks for the heads up!

Doubt Futaba was cheaper than the $15 I just spent. Haha

Cost you that much for one way shipping.

Yep, thats the dilemma I had this past weekend. It actually passed the range test, but once it got over the water Im guessing the frequency didnt pick up as well.Newly built 20 tunnel into the shore. Luckily the water pickup remained in the water, so the only repairs consist of repairing about the 4 inch tip of the outside sponson.

A lot cheaper than a new motor! Haha

So what did you manage to save in costs?
