Re: Transmission Problem
Hi,
Welcome to the forum. Your English is better than my Spanish.
Do NOT expect to get near to 100 metres range!
1. Check that all the batteries are good!
2. Try moving the Console (LCD) by a small distance (perhaps 10 cms) and/or rotaing it by 90 degrees. Do the same with the transmitter if possible.
3. Is the range better if you unplug the USB cable and (preferably) switch off the computer? Check for any other sources of local interference.
4. IF the above does not help, then see the top of this thread. It is easy to remove the back of the Console by taking out 8 screws (not more). The "Red Wire" is the receiving antenna. Making the wire straight and vertical might work better. If the transmitter is 434 MHz then the wire should be about 17 cms long. Personally, I found that reducing my antenna to that length did help (but I cannot guarantee it will help yours).
Cheers, Alan.
