My DX6 went up in smoke not long ago too.

How did you manage that?

Because I swapped the charging terminals round so that I could use it with Futaba chargers. When i put it back together the port in the back wasnt in properly, and came loose inside frying most of the wires inside.

You muppet Grant!!:wink:

that said, I also managed to totally fubar a DX6 back in January.. I had just finished testing a machine, put the TX on the floor behind me to remove the link from the machine, stepped back and stood on it. I crushed both joysticks flush to the front panel, split the LCD display and snapped the main board from top to bottom!!
:sad:

And i thought me snapping the antenna of my DX6 in half was bad.

so far ive solved it the roboteers way, Ductape.

Ive ordere a new antenna, so i am ok. The antenna does work just as well as before so it is more a cosmetic thing than anything else.

What a waste of good peanut butter.
Now, if the bloke had covered himself up in ductape and then walked around the campus... that would have been something to see and talk to the grandkids about on long dark cold wintry nights...
