Crystal Confusion

[fleek]

I am using Futaba 9CHP with a 40.xx0 crystal.

My first heli is using a electron 6 RX with the same frequency.

I am recently fixing up my second heli with a Schulze RX now the problem is that the schulze crystals are of 40.xx5 and mine TX is 40.xx0.

Then I searched for Futaba Crystals (since it is recommended for Schulze other than the Schulze crystals) and I found that Futaba Crystals are also of 40.xx5

Now the confusion is that is my TX using genuine Futaba or X brand? If I buy geninue Futaba 40.xx5 crystals for both helis, will the Futaba crystal work on the Hitec (since the hitec webpage says that other brand crystals will not work on the electron 6)

Use Futaba crystal on your TX and for the Rx, Hitec crystals if you are using Electron 6 and Futaba crystal if using the Schulze.
Just remember this, For either the Tx or Rx, use crystal of the make as in futaba use futaba, hitec use hitec, JR use JR and so on.

Hi Frank,

My current issue is actually the frequency availability of the crystals. Unless I am wrong, Futaba only manufactures crystals in frequencies of XX.XX5 whereas Hitec manufactures crystals in frequencies of XX.XX0

So how to match the different TX and RX crystal frequencies?

[Frank]

No they both manufactures XX.XX0 and XX.XX5 crystals.
I have both.
Its just that different regions have crystals of different suffixes.

Thanks Frank, now it is crystal clear. Just have to find a supplier who can provide me with the right crystal frequency.
