Default Sanwa/Airtronics SD-5G/SD-6G!

Hi,

it looks like not only a new 5ch Tx is in the pipe but a 6ch Tx called SD-6G as well.

At least according to the British importer of Sanwa radios:

http://www.ripmax.com/item.asp?itemi...tegory=060-030

How about Hobbypeolple and their Airtronics brand? They have only listed the SD-5G on their page.

...maybe, we should have only one SD-5G thread?

Anyway. The SD-5G looks great! I like it. What should I do with my RDS8000 now that has been collecting dusk since I got my SD-10G?

I would like to get a 5 or 6G buddy box. Sometimes I would like to let friends fly my planes w/o giving them "full control". A new SD-5/6G would make such game much easier.

Ok, here we go:

The all new great looking SD-6G!

It's a digital 6ch Tx with 10 model memory.

It looks like the SD-6G will be the base for a SD-8G as well.

What adapter are you using with Pheonix? Did you purchase one made by phoenix or make a custom one?

I went to buy Phoenix from the local agents here and when i asked him to confirm that their Airtronics adapter was the correct plug he said it wasn't, so i'm still waiting for him to get back to me.

The Sanwa/Airtronics adapter listed on the Phoenix site is the one I got, with the sim. It works great with the RDS-8000. It won't work with SD-10G.

Thanks,

That's what i needed to know.

Is there an adapter for the SD-10G? Or pehaps a pinout diagram so we can make our own?

I've seen a pin-out diagram for the 10G, but I'll have to look for it. The guy who tried it said it worked but was jerky.

Here's the link:

Someone mentioned the S-Video connector shown in the diagram is the one IN the radio, not the one in your hand. Make sense?
