The radio frequency of your Transmitter is what is required when you nominate for a race meeting.
The
Crystal in the Transmitter may only show a Channel Number, so in that case you need to look for what is the Basic Frequency of the transmitter; i.e. is it 27 MHz, 40 MHz ?
The frequency posted on some Receiver Crystals will be different to the Transmitter Frequency.
This is normal but all crystals will be marked either "TX" or "RX".
TX meaning it MUST go into the Transmitter, RX means it MUST be fitted to the Receiver.
Always maintain your batteries in both transmitter and the car in fully charged state.
A flat battery will cause loss of radio signal and an out of control car.
The use of "SPECTRUM" radio transmitters is allowed.
This type of transmitter automatically searches for what frequencies are in use and selects the appropriate one that will not clash with another transmitter.
If you own one of the "Crystal Less or Synthesized" transmitters manufactured by JR or FUTABA the following table allocates the Frequency in relation to the Channel Number.
Notein the case of JR the "6 CHANNEL" Transmitter has different frequencies (for the channel number) than the "12 CHANNEL" Transmitter.

To avoid damage to other cars, or even your own car, Please always check the frequency of ALL the other drivers at the tracks, even or practice days. A clash of frequency can cause a lot of damage to humans and vehicles.
All other frequencies are banned for use for land operated models at all NWRCCC Inc. events.
