Hi all..
Hoping some1 can shed some light on this for me.
Just got a futaba2pl (10 channel memory).
Anyway we went for a session today and the other savage is running 29.745.
mine is running 29mhz as well but no mater which of the 10 channels i pick it still stuffs up the second savage..
Ive double checked the manual on mine and im changing channels aok..
What the %^&$# is going on.
thanks all.

I think you'll find its "10 Model Memory" not 10 different frequencies.
You will need to change the crystals in your radio and receiver (matched set) I think 29Mhz crystals go for around $25 a set

Well you can, but it won't work.

You can store the trim/DR settings of 10 different cars on the transmitter. You have to change crystals but you dont have to change the setting everytime you change cars.
I like it because I have a few cars that I have to reverse the throttle or steering on and it takes ~1min to do it on my controller

10 set ups for savage...
1 - landing on nose setting
2 - landing on roof setting
3 - landing on a revo setting and making it cry
4 - landing on side setting
5 - landing on ass setting
6 - landing on a small APC and making a dent
7 - landing on a small child and making a big dent
8 - landing on another continent (requires large jump and 3 speed)
9 - not landing at all... just waiting
10 - landing back in the shop and buying an XS-3 like you should have
