    Traxxas link Aplication and Iphone 5

    Is it possible to connect a iphone 5 to the telemetry docking base.
    Iam planning to buy a Iphone 5 and it would be nice if I can use it with the Traxxas transmitter.

    Yes. It's compatible with any apple iPod/iPhone.

    iPhone 5 uses a different docking/charging
    Less pins on the iPhone 5, it's a high speed data connection
    I believe there's an adapter you can buy to use the older style 30pin(? I think) to the new style connector

    I know there is a adaptor, but will that work with the Traxxas parts.
    There are some electronic systems that don't work with the adaptor

    I don't know if it's ios6 compatible just yet. If it is it might work.

    You may want to contact the member who claims it worked.^^^
    I know they're having their break there by your brake drums. No, you're not invited.

    It works ;-)

    Hello

    The i-Phone 5 will work with the TQi docking base so long as you have
    the adaptor from Apple
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD...30-pin-adapter.
    The adaptor pushes the iPhone out a bit though and the first clamp
    does not make contact with the phone body.

    Best regards,
