Its pretty neat.

You have to do this voodoo thing with buttons and LEDs to bind the RX to the 
TX which takes like a minute, once done its done for life for those two, or 
until you decide to do the thing again for some reason...bored I guess.

So the first thing I did was warm up a cup of coffee, then remembered the 
post about the stay away from microwaves, so put the RX all around the micro 
wave oven to see if something went whacky...and it did.

I forgot that I had already had my coffee hot, and it boiled over, but I 
doubt its because of the Xtreme RX and Module/9303 being next to it.

Yes nothing happened, not a buzz. Not that we have a lot of microwave ovens 
at soaring contests anyway.

Next its gonna be my Cell phone! No not in the microwave oven. Next to the 
system. By the way I have it all on a 3 cell DLG pack...but for you really 
speedy servo guys it will work just fine up to 30v.

Next its gonna be inside the Deadly Pike Giant fuse with wings and 
everything Batman!

PS, Daryl made me do it.

I took a Supra nose cone, carbon kevlar weave, dropped in a 6cell pack that 
I had laying around (little guys), dropped two Micro Maxx Xp super high power 
servos in behind it, all with full length wire leads, then stuff the Xtreme 
10channel RX out of the case, yep its naked!, in behind those, then two more 
MMX Xps with full length leads stuff in behind that, and kind of pushed it in 
like loading a cannon. 

This was in the basement, with florescent lights blaring and the washing a 
machine and my cell phone dialing next to it all. 

Then I went up and outside the house and had the cat sitting next to it. I 
moved the sticks fast and the cat jumped and the nose cone rolled some, so I 
am figuring its still working.

Next the Oatmeal test....more later...I have to check to see what the smoke 
was from wafting out of the nose cone.
