Authorized FrequenciesThe following are the only frequencies allowed for ground use in the U.S.A. per the FCC. Usage of Aircraft and other frequencies is strictly prohibited and shall not be tolerated at AMYA Events. Aircraft radios and receivers must be converted for ground use by authorized repair facilities. 50 & 53 mHz are legal for Air and Ground and can be found in both Stick and Pistol Module radio systems. Contact your radio's manufacturer for details. See also "Spektrum DX6 Features & Setup for RC Sailboats (PDF) from MODEL YACHTING #142.
Q: Is it dangerous to be around R/C transmitters with a Pace Maker? A: (from the Futaba site) 1- All frequencies and transmitted power information are STRICTLY controlled by the FCC, and each system is "type accepted" prior to legally being sold in the United States. The FCC Acceptance number is printed on each transmitter. 2- Transmitted frequencies used in radio controlled products are: 6 in the 27 Megahertz band (potentially very limited use), 6 frequencies in the 50 to 53 Megahertz band, channels 11 through 60 in the 72 Megahertz band, and channel 61 through 90 in the 75 Megahertz band. 3- Transmitted power is limited by the FCC to 0.5 watt for our transmitters, and we can provide the individual model design power level for each transmitter if given the specific model number of that transmitter. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
