No it wasnt uninformed speculation. Go look around, all you have to do is look at the available info and put two and two together. As for system compatibility, Nomadio has already reverse engineered Spektrum stuff, even if the Futaba system wasnt based on their technology there is no reason to think they couldnt do the same. And in the various forums XPS and Nomadio have commented that they would both be open to a mutually beneficial licensing arrangement to make the systems compatible. I doubt you will ever see that from Spektrum or Futaba given the history of things.

And if you would like to read it for yourself, here are some links..

I dont know if this qualifies as evidence that Futaba and Nomadio are NOT the same stuff, but the spread looks different imho.
Here is Nomadios stuff: https://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/prod/oet/cf/eas/reports/GenericSearch.cfm

Hi!

I just had an idea for an other feature: The flight mode toggle button.

When performing a high-start with an F3B or F3J plane, one usually has to switch between 3 modes during the start:

- start mode on
(throw plane)
(Plane starts to maximum altitude)
- start mode off
- speed mode on
(Plane accelerates and finally shoots out of the line)
(Plane goes to normal speed while rising further)
- speed mode off

I think everyone can understand that it is fairly difficult to concentrate on the normal control functions during such a high start, but I find it extremely difficult to locate the switches and flip them right in time additionally, without looking down to the TX.

So it would be nice to have a momentary push button, which can be reached conveniently with the index finger, that toggles through the flight modes. The number and sequence of the individual flight modes should be custom programmable.

With such a button, a high start would look like this:

- enable push button sequence
(throw plane)
(Plane starts to maximum altitude)
- push button
(Plane accelerates and finally shoots out of the line)
(Plane goes to normal speed while rising further)
- push button


After the programmed sequence of flight modes has been used, the button is automatically disabled for the rest of the flight, and the flight modes are only accessible through the normal flip switches as usual.

What do you think of this idea?

Cheers,

Julez

ORIGINAL: Nomadio_Sales I put a 4ch react board in a MPX Pico case no antenna exposed out of the case it works Just as a proof of concept


Hi Karlton:

It would appear from the above sentence things are now waiting on mfg. turnaround time. Have not seen anyone ask about firmware and how it is being packaged. Remembering how some "Basic" got in the way of the Evo's evolution time line is what makes me ask. I like what I read, I am even more intrigued with what is tickled by your sentence above. AKA retroing Evo-12's ???

Everyone wants an arms length list of features...the benefits are obvious for most of them. IMHO most should be pretty obvious if the EE's really listened during the marketing data reviews... ;^) Knowing how those things go I hope to see some superior performance (read as stable and managable electronics without customers becoming EE's) married to logic which could permit motion across time while coupled to multiple channels with "individual" functionality. This to reduce the number of individual programmable layers (servo, rx, tx. That alone would amount to being a giant killer because it can be used in so many ways for so many functions.

Looking forward to adding a Nomadio column to our online Flite-Metal & 2.4 SS evaluation at:
http://004edc4.netsolhost.com/FM_and_2.4_Radios.htm Hint, hint, hint... ;^)

I've been to the Nomadio forum, and it is pretty quiet regarding the stick radios there as well (almost nothing).

Inquiring minds want to know - any updates on avaiability of the various models, features, etc.?

Looking for any beta testers? The North American Big Gun Open, our nationals, is right after July 4th, and we would be happy to combat test a unit for you and send it back with comments. Ho9wever, if the RX is not waterproofed, we whould want to take the liberty of waterproofing it with either Scotchkote or a silicone conformal coating.

If this unit is as BAD as the REACT ... have a bag of many spare parts!!!

I Sent it back and got it back with the same problem ... BEWARE!

Seriously - so far *MY* NOMADIO REACT has caused several bad crashes and one personal injury. NO JOKE.

I have serious doubts about NOMADIO products - so should YOU!

Y'all need to know this stuff - keeping the BAD from the good just shows bias and violates the "Freedom of Speech" act.

Thanks

First, there is no such thing as the "Freedom of Speech Act."

Second, what you are probably thinkin of is the 1st Amendment to the Constitution.
- if so, I suggest you go read it again, because you certainly indicate an strong misperception.
A private forum is certainly free to restrict content that it is paying to host.

Third, are you sure the problem was the React and not something else. We have a guy in our R/C Model Warship Combat Club that swears one of the other battlers EMP's his ships when he gets too close due to noisy ESC's. We are always pretty amused by this assertion, but, whatever helps him sleep at night. And, the guy with the "EMP" ship doesn't have to worry about this guy attacking him, so he doesn't complain about being maligned either.

I can't count the number of guys who have hooked a 15A rated ESC up to 2 motors that draw close to 100A each at stall, and blame the "crappy esc" when the poor thing dies after being jolted by over 10 times its rated draw. Of course, some of the same guys try to hook the same motors up with Cat5 wiring they had laying around - and wonder why their ship caught fire. Or use the Cat5 to carry servo signals and power, becaues, after all, it is 8 wires and is nice and neat. And they wonder why they get glitches. Granted, people this clueless are few and far between in our hobby, which requires a modicum of tech smarts, but it happens.

And, last, calling names and saying something caused damage does nothing to inform people who might be able to help you. If you really want to help people (and, by doing so, get help for yourself), explain what happened, in detail, and why you suspect the equipment you blame. That also allows others to analyse your facts and see if you indeed, have the right explanation or may have missed something.

Since we have no details as to what your "problem" was, I have to presume "operator error" for now.

Cheers,

Wreno
