Radio - Futaba FASST > 10chp not recognizing tm-10 module

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Has anyone else had trouble with the 10chp not seeing the tm-10 module? Mine will come on in Pcm/Ppm mode with the module plugged in. I can wiggle or tap the module, turn the transmitter off and back on and then it might see it. If it doesn't, I can repeat the process until it works(sometimes 10-15 times). When I finally get it to see the module, if I lay the transmitter on its back it will beep as soon as the module makes contact with the table and control of the heli is lost. This is the same beep that you get if you unplug a module with the transmitter on. It seems as if something is not making good contact in the back of the radio.

Update 11-2-2009: Hobby services sent me an email(see below). I'll let everyone know what they found when I talk to them on the phone.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Email Krysta at Hobby Services again and ask her for a phone number so you can talk directly with her or one of the technician's. Something doesn't sound right here and it should be taken care of by Futaba Service.
