Borrowed a DX5e off a friend and bound it to the Orange RX in Binky... same problem with the armour on. Then bound it to the original RX that came with the DX6i... again no more than about 4 feet...

Also unplugged one of the TZ85s incase it was getting to much power... same results.

This seems to rule out both the RX and TX which can't be right. Just ordered 2 AR 6110's which david suggested.

I have no idea what is going on or how to solve it... ideas?
