ACE R/C RF module

[j.s laura]

I plan to build the Rf section which came in the varius ACE RC TX ,like the DIGITAL COMMANDER and OLYMPIC V.
The rf board has three coils L1,L2,L3. Can someone please
healp me with information on these coils .I think this Q can be best answered by those who have build these tx.They just need to count the turns. :)

you're talking about the AM deck, right?

maybe check the ACE or MP8K yahoo user groups as there are still a lot of those folks using these decks in their radios.

J.S.,I think I have one of those AM RF decks. Let me find it and I will give you coil information. I might have a 72 MHZ. But you have to tell me what freq. u intend to build. If you give me the schematic of the encoder you intend to use, I can send you other RF circuits, Futaba and Sanwa. If you want to keep your cost low, Sanwa uses two inexpensive final transistors in parallel but with a low resistance resistors series to the emitters to even out the current flow.

Here's a schematic and other doc I have left over from the many ACE kits I assembled many years ago.

I think FMA still sells RF decks for the Ace 8000. Fred designed most of the stuff back then.

RF decks were sub contracted to Mexico.. Fred sold the last batch this summer
