    Just a TQi!

    I ordered my TQi Friday and it is coming in Wednesday! I am so excited! Is there anything that I need to be aware of? Thanks!

    The TQ LINK can do that too.
    Whatever it is I just said... I could be wrong.

    http://traxxas.com/products/parts/tr...traxxaslink2ch

    "The exclusive Traxxas Link™ automatic model recognition software is a breakthrough in "model memory" that makes it easier than ever to enjoy multiple Traxxas Link enabled models without juggling transmitters or scrolling through complex menus searching for model names. Each time the transmitter is bound to a new receiver, it saves that receiver in its memory, along with all the model settings assigned to that receiver. The next time that transmitter and any previously bound receiver (up to 20!) are switched on, the transmitter automatically recalls the settings for that receiver. Just power up the transmitter and the model you want to drive, and the settings for that model are dialed in immediately! Up to 20 Traxxas Link enabled receivers and 20 Traxxas TQ 2.4GHz High Output transmitters can be cross bound together making it possible to grab ANY transmitter and ANY vehicle from the group, switch them on, and start driving. It's perfect for when you have lots of vehicles you want to drive but don't want to have to keep up with which transmitter belongs to which model. Traxxas Link does it for you, seamlessly behind the scenes."


    The main functionality of both the LINK and the TQi are the same... even the programming tree is the same. The only real difference in the software is the telemetry.
    Whatever it is I just said... I could be wrong.

    The visual setup and menus are a welcome step,for me at least. The count the flashing light made me feel like I was having a test/experiment done on me.lol

    Yeh, if you want it to last, make sure you never plug an ipod or iphone into it!

    Some people have had problems with the radio going dead after upgrading the firmware, and you can't use an iPod/iPhone without upgrading the firmware. I have 4 TQi radios though and have upgraded all 4 without a problem though.

    I did that and am having tiny problems with binding with my TQ link receivers... It works but it takes a few tries...
