Hi,

I have a tiger 1 R+S version. When the sound is on the control range of the tank is limmited arround 3 meters. With the sound off its OK, 20 meters no problem. Also the smoke generator has some effect on the control range.

Is there anyone facing the same problem I have? Or someone who has an idea of solving this problem?

I think ,the Problem is the distance between antenna cable and Speaker.
Lay the cable in larger Distance.
This shouldt solve your Problem.

Hi Mike,

Tanks for the reply. Its a good idee to separate the cables of the antenna and the speaker. The problem in my case is that I replaced the antenna to the right side of the tank (as the origional). So the antenna is next to the speaker.

Still i find it strange that there is interference from the low frequency sound system in the antenna. Maybe shielding of the speaker cable helps to?

Greetings,

I had the same Problem!
-maybe you can translate it-
To solve the Problem I fixed the Speaker in a larger Distance from the Antenna/Antennacable (in the Center of rear).
After this change ,the Tank run without Problems.

I have to do some testing. That is part of the fun (when the result is good!). I hope replacing the speaker does the trick because I also put the volume control in the loaders hatch (very handy). This means that the cabels of the control go nearby the antenna.
Futhermore replacing the speaker isn't simple. I glued a better speaker to the body of the tank en closed al the other hatches. Change is always possible so....we wil see.

bye,
Robert

I wonder if it is possible to just shield the antenna cable fromt eh speaker. I don't want to have to move the speaker from it's current location. I already had to grind the corner of the speaker box some to accomodate the antenna being moved.
