Default And there's even an ELEVEN point curve Tx out there...

Dear FlyingJake:

The PIPE here yet again...and there IS a "radio of sorts" out there with an ELEVEN point (including the endpoints) capability out there...the only "catch" is that you pretty much HAVE TO BUILD IT yourself!

The key item here is the Gordon Anderson MICROSTAR computer-chip-based Tx encoder assembly...its home page (here we go AGAIN) is at http://mstar2k.com/ ...and if you've got the FREELY downloadable "Adobe Acrobat Reader", you can view this encoder's PROGRAMMING manual, which is at http://mstar2k.com/programming.pdf !!!

There are FOUR separate eleven point "tables" in that MicroStar's Tx computer encoder setup that can be used, and that SHOULD take care of just about ANY need for a special curve for your needs!

My very FIRST single stick MicroStar based transmitter is just about READY to use...I also have a SECOND MicroStar encoder that will go into another scratchbuilt single stick transmitter this winter...and Gordon HIMSELF built each of these encoder board assemblies up for me, and tested them as well, for only $150 postpaid each!

Haven't tried choppers as yet...but I DO know that the ONLY RC heli I'd like to go with is at http://www.centuryheli.com/products/...nix/index.html ...since it IS four stroke powered, as all the models I fly with ARE four stroke powered!

Don't know if you're "up to the task" of building up your OWN RC radios...but those that DO can have that QUARTET of ELEVEN point tables available to them, when using a MicroStar encoder in their homebuilt transmitters!

Yours Sincerely,

The PIPE!
