Default RE: A new KNOBBY box RC radio "recommendation"...

The Pipe,

I didn't pick up on your personal requirements for a single-stick transmitter from your first post, but after seeing your last post I understand. Until then, I thought you were just advocating the single-stick arrangement. Ed Moorman writes for a magazine that reviews flying hardware, and I doubt he would intentionally offend you.

I use Mode II, and own a Microsoft Sidewinder joystick for video games. Mode II suits me just fine at the field. On the simulator, I can't seem to get the Sidewinder rudder to work for me, and I wind up assigning rudder to a couple keybord keys. I thought it was really neat when I bought it (years ago, it was the first version they offered) and quickly found out I'm not wired for twisting the stick for rudder.

I'm glad it works for you, though! Happy flying,
Dave Olson
