For P.J. Barnes ... How did you get the Transmitter to work??

If your tank came with instructions it should say how long to charge the tank and check your batteries in the transmitter. Then look at the frequency of the transmitter and the tank and make sure they match. See if that helps.

No transmitter. You have either use an iPad, iPhone, or the unit does work with any Walkera Devo Radio.

I hope this is the issue I'm having. I've already had the technician out last week to replace the main board for this problem. The remote seemed to have worked for 5 minutes, like you said, and literally as he was leaving my driveway I tried to change the source and the remote didn't work again! I was so frustrated, and thanks to you I will be geared up with this information so perhaps he can fix it this time!

How did you get the battery pack to work? The two I bought wouldn't fit my radios. Only thought I would have is not making enough contact and not enough current to power Tx.

I have the same problem. I can sometimes adjust the transmitter power to get around it. It's a good case of "you get what you pay for." It's a cheap meter--cheaply made.

I know this post is super old, but I am sending mines back tomorrow. I heard something rambling around when I got ready to use it for the first time. I didn't think anything of it. Although, it was a little hard to connect. THAT SHOULD'VE TOLD ME SOMETHING WAS WRONG RIGHT THERE. Then, recently, I picked it up and it fell apart. I found all the pieces, and put it back together. I was still having trouble connecting. Then, it dawned on me that the spring was missing upon arrival. I thought I could live with the faulty transmitter...but I can't. Hopefully, they send me a better one.

I haven't lost the transmitter,so I have no answer for that. Please get in touch with DEBBIE,who you bought it from..I am sure she will give you the right information.

Someone used velcro to secure the transmitter. Took about ten minutes. See here: http://podophile.com/2006/07/14/

Set everything up (flash connected to NPT-04 receiver, everything turned on), and then hit the test button that's on top of the transmitter. Does the flash fire? If it does, then the transmitter is talking to the receiver, and the receiver is talking to the flash. So the problem is the camera isn't talking to the transmitter. You didn't say what camera you're using. On my Sony cameras, "wireless" is for using the pop-up flash to control and fire other flashes. You can do wireless TTL, and use the pop-up flash to be the "commander". That's what "wireless" flash mode is. Obviously that's not what you're doing. So change it to rear or fill flash mode, and see if that works.

Hi, I had ordered 4 of these radios and had to return one for the same reason you describe. You may just have a bad one. All the others work perfectly and simply . . . Just turn it on. Be sure you are setting the ON switch to the middle position. It takes about 2 or 3 seconds till you hear the broadcast. Be sure the volume is adjusted high enough on the left side. If nothing works, return it.good luck!

Just to cover the obvious, you have the cable connected from the receiver, to the camera? (Not just mounted on the shoe.) Also, there are dip switches under the batteries; the settings need to match on both the transmitter and the receiver. Hope that helps.

I had the same problem and I read the book and did as recommended and took it apart and cleaned it. I programmed it correctly and it still didn't work. A lot of money to spend just for one summer, so I'm very disappointed.

Try pairing with your phone. If it shows as a headphone or receiver then you got the wrong product shipped to you. I purchased this and they shipped a receiver instead of a transmitter. Still trying to get my money back from this so that I can get a transmitter from a more competent vendor.

Same problem here. The receiver has trouble keeping connection through a sliding glass door less than 20 feet away from the transmitter. Door open, no issue. Door closed, constantly dropping signal. Tried fresh batteries, no joy. Complete crap.

To troubleshoot:Make sure you put batteries in the recievers (the two bigger ones).Make sure they are On.Have them all on the same channel (the little white switches)Click the button on top of the transmitter (the smaller one) and see if it they work.Now install on your camera's hot shoe and see if it works.

I bought my transmitter/receiver set on ebay so you may want to check there. Or check in with Creative Labs. Good luck.
