9X replacement mainboard WANTED

Post by steyve123 »

Hi guys I really am a newbie on here and I am desperately in need of a new/used but working mainboard for a Turnigy 9x. I tried to solder wires on the mainboard to update it but ended up stuffing it up due to my poor eyesight. So all I want to do is just get another mainboard and put it back to stock.
Please please help.

How bad is your board? Could you post a picture?
It may well be possible to salvage it. For some of this close work I use some high magnification reading glasses (x3.5 or x4), sometimes two pairs together!

Hi Mike, I dropped a big blob of solder onto where the chip connects but stupid me didn't notice, then fired it up now it's totally dead so really my choice is replace the mainboard or sell the other bits and buy new. I would prefer to buy a second hand board or 9XR transmitter.
But thanks for your input.

Don't even bother looking for one. Get an AR9x replacement board. It's greatly superior to the original 9x board. And inexpensive.

They've been out of stock but should be available again shortly.

EDIT
I see I'm not the only one who thinks that.

Yes, but i think the guy still exists and might be drifting, so some direction must be needed.
Some sets are out of stock and will be restocked by 14th march.

I guess the discussion of The new version being available shortly doesn't preclude there being some of the original one left.

No, I didn't notice 2015! Maybe it will benefit others.

You mean new version of the Ar9x board? The new stock that is available since a week or two (can't precise) is exactly the same Rev-B board, with the exception of some labels that were wrong on the last batch, I think.. ;)
I have one and I could check if needed :)

It wouldn't be the first time that we didn't realize we are answering a very old post, hence my comment above. :)
It did happen to me already. More than once actually :D
Agree that might benefit others..
