I haven,t spoken to my wife for over 6 months,cos i don,t like to interrupt her!! we always hold hands ,if i loose she goes shopping.In the beginning ,God created earth and rested, then created man and rested,then created woman since then nobody,s rested.I take her everywhere, but she keeps finding ...

Your welcome Pete,it seems that some require down ele,some need up, and some none at all,my cessna 152 is very neutral,flaps up or down, but my 185 required alot of down ele when using flap,it is very much a trial and error situation, but great fun trimming it out! In my experience up to 30 degree f...

Morning Shane,re info on gear installation etc,i must have suffered a memory lapse,quite common these days :oops: There already exists a most comprehensive and informative booklet by Doc Keith Mitchell which imo says it all! To many of us it is our reference"bible" .perhaps if you ask nice...

Hi Rob,with regards to refuting Reds assertions,i cannot,my tests and others seem to agree with Reds findings, however because of potential problems that could occur,on my models i,ll stick to proper backer systems,imo. Now then Rob,have a look at the spektrumrc.com/community/installation pages they...

Good suggestion on the radio topic idea,Pete,if enough posts are received maybe Robin will oblige ;) personally all this navigating around our forum is improving my "confuser"literacy :lol: cheers,Roy. ps ,to Shane Lewis,----Shane,whatever,just ask!!!! the LMA members answers will impress ...

Good evening Pete, i fly "throttle right" and found it awkward to use a slider/rocker/rotating pot etc,but useing the 3 position switch on my DX7 (up/1/2down/ full down-flap),1/2 down for takeoff, full down for landing, works very good for me---just needed to add a touch of up or down mix ...

Hello again Rob,to try to clarify things, may i submit the following,for many years i have used two ports at either end of the rx,ie,batt and channel 8 to even out the power distribution,(like a household ringmain circuit), useing 2 switches but 1 battery,i have had switches go faulty,but have been ...

to add to my last post,it appears that correctly maintained systems and meticulous pre flight checks useing direct parallel wired packs should not be a problem, but in the real world if it can go wrong it will,then the cost of 2 diodes ,or a good backer system could save your model at the very least...

Hello Rob, apologies for lateness of reply,I have just completed a test using 2 1800mah 4.8 volt sub c nicads, 1was fully charged(5.2volts)the other was discharged to 4.4 volts, when connected in parallel with a ammeter in circuit the initial current draw between the two packs was 500ma dropping qui...

Yes Stuart, later rxs had short tubes integral with the housing to help support the ae,s, the destructions do advise supporting the ae,s with adhesive tape etc,i use a cocktail stick stuck to the case with 2 blobs of evo stick,and 2 small o rings to secure ae,s, works for me.-------Safe flying,---Ro...

The rd921 rx has dual battery ports, left hand port is labelled---"batt 1/bind. right hand port is labelled batt 2/data, please note,the positive pins of both batt 1 and batt2 ports are connected together, as are the negative pins,therefore the use of 2 batteries(without diodes/batt backer syst...
