If there is more than one Radio Controlled (RC) devices operating on the same radio control frequency operating in the same proximity - there's going to be an issue for one or both devices.
Simple, inexpensive RC devices operating on the same frequency have no way of being "paired" (like a bluetooth device to a phone) to a particular controller (more expensive devices and controllers have sophisticated ways to get around this limitation by setting codes that allow the device to respond to only the matching controller). You would need to have both the control and device on a new frequency that is different from other RC devices to retain control of the device - otherwise once the device gets close enough to the other controller - it will begin responding to it instead of yours.

In order to use your RC device, you'll need to remain closer to your device than the other controller is. This makes your controller's signal more powerful and should overcome the more distant controller signal. Keep in mind that your range of control will be reduced as the signal suffers from interference from the other controller - much like driving in your car listening to the radio that has 2 broadcasters on the same frequency. While close to home, you hear your local station clearly - but as you get further from the local station, there is an area where the signal from the other station overlaps with your local station - making understanding what is being broadcast by either station completely unintelligible. You have to tune away or shut off the radio until you're closer to one station or the other. Had there been no second station on the same frequency - or had been travelling in a different direction, you might have been able to listen to your local station for the whole trip. The same holds true for your RC device. In an open area alone - you may have control for 200 feet. But in an area with another RC controller operating on the same frequency as yours, that distance may plummet to just 50 feet. The more distance there is between RC controllers and devices competing for the use of the same frequency - the better the experience will be.


I hope this helps and good luck!

I bought a full function radio controlled toy car 27/49MHZ and it does not work. I've put all new batteries in it and it still does nothing. Can you help me with this problem

I don't understand the 27/49 MHz reference.
Most radio control is 27 MHz.
Licence-free personal communication is 49MHz and in the real world the two frequencies are oceans apart.

Dual frequency band might be a good idea for a full function toy car but usually, considering a manufacturer doesn't often make something better than it needs to be, a radio control tends to be either one thing or the other and not both.

If the cars are available as either 27 or 49 MHz, don't ignore the possibility you might have a radio control that doesn't match the car.

Such toys are rarely built to anything but a mediocre or low quality and faulty goods are far from unknown. It would be wise to know something about what you have and how it works and reading the instructions thoroughly would be a good start.

Don't assume the batteries are all good and test them before fitting them. Ensure the batteries are fitted the right way around first time - the wrong way around could cause terminal damage to the electronics even if only for a few seconds.

Does it matter what crystal i use

Yes. You need to have the same color in both your receiver & your transmitter in order for your RC to work. Both crystals needs to be set to the same frequency. Each color of crystal operates on a slightly different range of the 27 Mhz frequency so the signals don't interfere with each other. That way you can drive your 27 Mhz Rustler with blue crystals and not be affected by your friend who is driving his 27 Mhz Slash with green crystals. Although, if another friend comes along and he also has blue crystals, you won't be able to run your RC's at the same time. The crystal in your receiver will pick up the signal from your transmitter and his since they are the exact same frequency.

LOST MY MANUAL TO MY UNIDEN BEARCAT BC142XL CAN I GET A FREE REPLACEMENT

The manual isn't online to my knowledge however I did find a guide on how to program it.
"Turn it on. Push the "MANUAL" button to stop it from scanning.

Push number 1, then push "MANUAL" again. This should leave you on
channel one.

Using the keypad enter the frequency you want to monitor, then push
"E." Press "REVIEW" at anytime to see what frequency is programmed
there. If the review button flashes 000.0000 on the LED readout
display, you might be entering an invalid frequency. Refer to the list
of acceptable frequencies in the Frequency Range Bands below.

Push "MANUAL" to step to channel number two. Enter the frequency. Push
"E." Push "MANUAL" to step to channel three. Repeat this process until
all the (10) channels are full, or you've run out of frequencies to
enter.

Push "SCAN" to start automatically scanning the frequencies. The
radio will stop when it hears someone talking, and resume scanning two
seconds after the conversation has stopped.

Frequency Range Bands:

20 to 29.7 MHz (10 Meter "Ham" Band)
29.7 to 50 MHz (VHF Low Band)
50 to 54 MHz (6 Meter Amateur Band)
136 to 144 MHz (Military Land Mobile)
144 to 148 MHz (2 Meter "Ham" Band)
406 to 420 MHz (Federal Government Land Mobile)
420 to 450 MHz (70cm "Ham" Band)
450 to 470 MHz (UHF Standard Band)
470 to 512 MHz (UHF "T" Band)"

At times, one controller operates both cars. How do I fix that and prevent it from happening? Thanks Scott

Look at your radio and or the cars. They will be marked with the radio frequency in which they operate. If both are the same, say 27 MHZ, you will have problems trying to operate them. There should not be any problem if the cars are on a different frequency.

Lost remote to the HUMMER H2 - will any 27mhz controller work , or does it have to be from FASTLANE?

Any 27 mhz controller would work in ur TOY! Just check the exact frequency of the CRYSTAL in the board of the truck and the controller, they must be almost the same frequency or adjust the tuning in either truck or the controller!

Hi ihave brought helicopter ftw 730 but the remote control was not its own .the helicopter ftw 730 remote control frequency is 40 mhz but the one i have is 27 mhz so how can i make as 40 mhz remote...

Unfortunately you can't. You will need to change the receiver or the transmitter so they are both the same frequency range eg 40mhz or 27mhz. Then you will need to check the crystal is the same frequency for the Transmitter and receiver eg 40.25mhz. NB. you can't put a 27mhz crystal into a 40mhz set or vise versa it won't work.
