Default 3pk fail safe question....

will the fail safe on the 3pk pcm reciever kick in when the reciever pack is low? or does it only kick in if it doesn't get a clean signal from the Tx?

thanks,
sinny.

ok...i read the manual and i think it said the failsafe will give you a warning on your radio if the receiver pack is low...not sure if it will activate your failsafe or just give you a warning which i think is cool!!!....can anyone verify this or clear it up for me?

thanks,
sinny

i know that there's a warning for the Tx batteries....but does the failsafe warn you when the Rx batteries are low?

thanks...

No, there is no two way communication. The receiver can't tell your transmitter anything.
