Any stock update on RC recievers

[ganeshjois]

Hi,
I am an newbie (with very little electronics knowledge), trying to build a rc sub and in the process collecting necessary equipments slowly. I bought a VEX transmitter for the radio.

Have been looking on website for a longtime and was wondering when will be the RC receiver be available on Drydocks?

Also, while in toy stores, I see lot of RC toys with 27 mHz and 49 mHz radios. Can these be used for building RC subs??

please do let me know.

Thanks

The toy R/C equipment usually tends to have very low power and consequently poor range. bets sticking with hobby grade kit.

I am guessing you haven't checked in the The Scrap Yard -- BUY & SELL HERE! part of the forum. Or on Ebay for New 75mhz receivers. I still have 7 left out of the 3 batches I posted.

You can build one of these, or I could make one for you.
open up receiver/crystal options.
27MHz RC receiver , can't find any more than 3 channel.
(by dumb luck I find some used one)

There are few 72 mhz transmitters and receivers available on ebay. Can one use 72 mhz if you are just using in your backyard pool?
