How to set up for RPM sensor Please give pics for a Spectrum radio. and what RX to use. In Q/500

The sensor fits in the backkplate of the motor. I take off the bracket and silicone the sensor in the backplate. You have to use either a 6600T, 7350 or 9350 Spektrum receiver.

What Mike said with a picture...I've had success with zap a dap a goo.

I know we've talked about this Mike, but without a magnet, what's the thing reading? Some magnetic field off the crank pin? If so, wow! What technology!

There is a magnet built into the sensor and it senses the crank pin rotation.

[delateurj]

Its an "active" hall effect device. The crank pin disrupts the magnetic field and the sensor senses this.

This same setup is very common for nitro RC helicopters, is been used for many years on their RPM governors

[RCjunkie]

thank all, how do route the wire?

[MLH]

Route the wire through the firewall to the receiver.
