I have a spectrum system and with the original reciever I have had no problems but with a couple of the spectrum mini recievers I have had a problem with range. If I get 100 ft away it loses the signal, just wondering if anyone else has had this happen or if I'm doing something wrong

Make sure you don't twist or cover the tip of the antenna, let it float atop the plastic tube if you use one.

The range on the micro should be as good or better than your original receiver. It sounds like they may have some sort of issue. Send them in for repair and we will get them fixed up. They usually get turned around in less than a week.

Sonny will take good care of you. I have had great service from Spektrum. No use trying to fix it yourself and lose more race time and parts.
