RE: Can JR advise re US sales of XG11?

OK, so you have restated the obvious advantage to the XG-11, but . . . . . . .

RE: JR12X replacemnt??

At least you *get* the choice! Horizon decided to drop the modular here . . . apparently, they didn't think we had enough mental firepower to master the process of choice . . .

RE: JR12X replacemnt??

Considering that the 12X was not designed by JR as a DSM system, but rather a modular system, that logic makes no sense . . . It was Horizon that asked JR to convolute the US 12X into a DSM only...

RE: motor smoking

Oh a heli, it's very simple . . . if it's too hot, it's too lean, and the power you are getting does not matter! Heli engines are not tuned for peak power like airplane engines - they just don't...

RE: motor smoking

Exhaust smoke, or ? ? ? If you don't have a smoky exhaust, you are likely way, way too lean, and overheating your engine massively . . .

1-1/2 turns is the *STARTING* point and has exactly...

RE: Futaba GV-1 governor set up

Enable StSw in the GV-1 . . . that is what is required to have the GV-1 drop offline based on stick position (StickSwitch)

Without that (which is the default) it ignores stick position once...

RE: JR 50Mhz Rx. compatible W/ 53Mhz crystals ?

Try to coordinate a repeater on one of those frequencies and see how "suggested" it is . . . it just ain't gonna happen!

This is *THE* band plan for the US . . . and while not law, HAMs are...

Were hatt actually the band plan, then I would agree, but it isn't . . . RC is still clearly designated on the *actual* band plan, found at http://www.arrl.org/band-plan-1. Much...

RE: JR 50Mhz Rx. compatible W/ 53Mhz crystals ?

The bottom line, as I recall, is that the initial freqs. used were on 53, and due to confilicts, the band plans were modified to give RC use access of a "protected" set of freqs, and thus the 50MHz...

Has everyone forgotten the inverse square law? The band plans? Physics? Common sense?

RE: JR 50Mhz Rx. compatible W/ 53Mhz crystals ?

It's obvious . . . 50MHz is an exclusive allocation to the HAM community - you don't get the dribbling idiots and kiddies you get on 72. And on 50, you don't have all the shadowing and other...

RE: Looking for a new Transmitter.

Myself, I would absolutely never give up modular . . . it's just too limiting down the road! Modular == "future proof", and non-modular == locked in with no options . . .

RE: Which New 2.4 Transmitter Would You Choose?

If the 72MHz single freq modules work, then the 50MHz module should - same circuit, different tunings in most cases . . .

But it still sounds like it needs a bit of hacking - IE Hitec decided...

RE: Which New 2.4 Transmitter Would You Choose?

If this was directed at me, note that Hitec is also about the ONLY brand to not support 50MHz, which is critical to me . . . If a Futaba module would work in a Hitec, then maybe, but the loss of PCM...

RE: JR 12X Battery problem

And making the same mistake twice in a row can blow the fuses in both packs quite easily . . . The good news is that the fuses are cheap and easy to replace . . .

RE: Which New 2.4 Transmitter Would You Choose?

For me, it's really a hard choice these days, since there is pretty much nothing on the market that fulfills my needs/desires as well as the older stuff I have:

RE: DSX11 vs HITEC AURORA 9
