Well I ended up in the C final and finished 6th. I'm pleased with that cos there were 66 pro stock drivers and very few of them couldnt drive.

I did hit a problem though with interference on one particular part of the track. Despite using 2.4 I found that the system would shut down momentarily apply the brakes and turn sharp left. I walked the track with the car and watched it happen.
Ended up putting in a 27meg module and problem cured.

I am begining to wonder if with so many people now using spektrum which operates on the same 72 frequencies as mobile phones, wireless laptops, Iphones, Blue tooth links in cars etc whether a weaker signal can be pushed aside by a stronger signal. Anyone got any thoughts......?

The way Spektrum works in the 2.4 band is really quite simple, once the initial handshake has taken place between tx and rx they are bonded together, if for some reason it has to hop frequency it will tell the rx where it is going, now if for some reason that stop is not available it will go into a search pattern until it picks up the rx again, if the rx does not recieve a signal within a certain period of time it will go into a failsafe mode.  Now while there is now quite a bit of clutter within the 2.4 band, bluetooth operates within a much tighter frequency band, there should still be quite a bit of room for your racing.  As per Mr B's post the more likely candidate for the severing of the bond is a lack of transmitter power.  

Hope that helps Cam.
