PCM Range check???
O.K.
PCM is supposed to hide out all those "jitters" that are visible in FM. So how do I performe a range check if I'm tranmiting in PCM????
Any thoughts????

Same way you normally do, but have someone look for the ratcheting effect that happens when they start to lose control. They will stop moving smoothly, and if you go too far, they will do nothing, or whatever you programmed the failsafe to make them do.

yep
I agree....Program the failsafe to move the rudder to the extreme right or left on loss of signal, then walk away until that happens...note the distance...
Then walk back towards the plane, and note when the signal is reestablished....
