i have a really cheap toy car that has a really cheap 27 mhz transmitter on it with a signal wire soldered to the motherboard of the car. is there any way i could get an fs-ia6 on it? if its just the signal wire shouldnt i be able to get something hooked up or no? i know that the reciever there is not the same as the fs-ia6 but i just wanted to know if it was possible. thanks!

I had a toy hummer from radio shack when I was younger. The radio stopped working and so I bought a brushed ESC and a servo in order to replace the electronics for common radio controlled parts. You can try and do that if you want to.

Quote or tag if you want me to answer! PM me if you are in a real hurry!

Unless it's a hobby grade RC car with an independent receiver, no you can't.

Hobby cards don't have a main PCB, they have multiple separate replaceable components.

Cheap toy cars don't have replaceable radio systems.

Even if it is just one wire connected to a receiver, yes you can.

Not in this case though, his cheap car doesn't have an independent receiver.
