Fantastic, they will do the job nicely.

Re: Transmitter/receiver compatibility
Not sure about your 4.2 volts Li-Ion are nominally 3.6 volts, and LiPo are nominally 3.7 volts, unless you are talking fully charged state, its like calling a car battery 14.4 volts (fully charged), which is nominally 12 volts.

Re: Transmitter/receiver compatibility
Yup, just to confuse people, I see it's working, lol, sorry about that. I often use full charge capacity on model batteries as that is the top voltage I need to allow for on ESC's, however Li-ion do come in both 3.6v and 3.7v, I use the 3.7v / 4.2v ones myself. It's odd really because on Li-po batteries that I used in planes I always used the 3.7v as a standard.
As for the car battery reference, a car battery is only at 14.4v (ish) when it's getting a charge from the alternator, whereas once you switch the engine off and wait a while, it drops back down to around 12v ( dependant on the condition of the battery) If your car battery is at 14.4v in a nominal "engine off state" I would strongly suggest you get your alternator checked out as it's over charging / cooking your battery. If checked first thing in the morning it should be somewhere between 11.9v and 12.6v

Re: Transmitter/receiver compatibility
Would have to agree with Steve, on that. Deltang is simple enough for me to understand, and involves no touch-screens, or spotty and expensive Australian internet to use.
I can only imagine the voracious demand for Deltang gear when Micron's replacements become available, though I would imagine that could be quite a few months away..
Can't say I'll be much help with that - I'll be needing around ten Rx'es right off the bat, for a backlog of waiting locos.

Re: Transmitter/receiver compatibility
Currently I am moving to Microns MR001a and Fosworks ESC-160, about the same price and no soldering. It is what I am fitting in my IP Engineering Railbus, a couple of bugs needed fixing but should be as good as the Rx 6X, and up to 24 volts.Old Man Aaron wrote: ↑Wed May 05, 2021 1:39 pm Would have to agree with Steve, on that.

That'll work! Cheers, I'd best get saving, then..
