I have looked for the DVD's but the link is broken - comes up with a "Whoops we cant seem to find that page" kind of message........

Mike, Are you still selling the DVD's?
If not Nigel, I have a second set of DVD's I could sell you.
Peace,
Tom

The FC16 is an excellent radio, I use it myself.

Regarding receivers, your choice is a little limited by the space inside the 2.5" subdriver. The Sombra Labs receiver isn't available in 40mhz, so that is out.

About the only receiver small enough I know of, readily available with enough channels and on 40mhz, is the Corona RP8D1. This is a very small receiver, and inexpensive. I have one which works fine with the FC16. It's synthesized, so you don't have to worry about crystals etc.

Hi guys,
Managed to pick up some of these miniature servos at my local model shop and was wondering if anyone had experience of them?
If they turn out. To be A) Powerful enough to do the job and B)Reliable....then from a size point of view they are perfect for the Gato and any other tightly confined model. These are wired to be Futaba compatible, but I believe they can be bought with just about any plug on them.

No, I have not used that brand. they look to be micro size -- should work.
