Haven't any experience with that set, but all PCM sets I have encountered are switchable between PCM and normal PPM. JR use a different shift pattern to most other makes I think, but the Sombra is unlikely to worry about that. So provided your set is switchable, it should eb a problem.Time to DIVE IN! https://www.facebook.com/groups/133360626703083/

Must have been a really lousy PCM system then. Personally I use 2.4ghz system (Spektrum and Corona) for everything above the water, it's a quantum leap over the older systems, just too bad it doesn't cut through the wet stuff.Time to DIVE IN! https://www.facebook.com/groups/133360626703083/

Did you follow the instructions on how to bind the receiver to your radio? You can do it with the shadow programmer, or the bind plug.http://www.sombralabs.com/download/S...Guide%20V5.pdf Make sure that your WYFLY is on while you are doing it. Let us know.Last edited by greenman407; 10-18-2014, 09:34 PM.IT TAKES GREAT INTELLIGENCE TO FAKE SUCH STUPIDITY!

I followed the protocol to the letter using the binding loop. It appeared to bind on two occasions, but when I touched the receiver to unplug the loop it immediately became unbound on both occasions. Personally I think there is something wrong with the receiver. Both the receiver and the radio have never been used before now. I acquired them a couple years ago when I built my gato sub, but didn't use them because I ordered a Wfly 8 channel because I needed 7 channels for the gato. Do you think a shadow programmer would work even though the loop doesn't?

Still can't get the receiver to bind again. Tried using a separate power switch but since it won't bind, unable to try the switch. I ordered a 6 channel Lepton receiver, but now I find I can't get a crystal for it. I tried Caliber Hobby but they are out of stock and it appears that GWS Systems may not even be in business from my further searching. Does anyone have a channel 69 crystal that will work in receiver that I just ordered? Getting Frustrated! HELP. Ted
