RE: CG FOR SEAGULL AT6 TEXAN

One more note. When I wrote the original notes I may have failed to remember that my calcs would be at the 9 inch rib. I'm curious as to where on the wing they said you should make the measurement....

RE: New Radios and AMA

RE: Field charger use on DX7

Ok, seems the problem I had is gone. Charging and using the Spektrum with my Sirius charger many times and all is fine. Unless the problem returns, this will be my last reply on the subject.

RE: Field charger use on DX7

Really good info sigrun. I instructed for years and purchased the Sirius in 1999 for the same reasons. Do you have any comments about the fuse blowing? I want to let everyone know that since my...

Update! I decided to go ahead and take the chance. I reduced the ouput of my Sirius to 500 ma and plugged it into the DX7. This time the green charge light lit and it is charging. I am...

RE: Field charger use on DX7

Dan,

I also meant to tell you that my Serius max output is 1 amp and it was set on that when I plugged it in. I have 3 settings, 250 ma, 500 ma and 1000 ma.

RE: Field charger use on DX7

Dan, Thanks for the fast reply. Yes the center pin is negative. What I didn't make clear was that I used the same reverse polarity connector on my Serius as I use to charge my JR 10X. I'm an old...

RE: YS 63 Leaking Regulator

I replaced the large one with a new 53, 63 plunger. About the spring I just got desperate. I seems like it is not long enough. Or maybe too weak. Since I had to screw the adjustment screw all the...

RE: YS 63 Leaking Regulator

RE: Tiered rates: revisited by Dave Brown

Why not drop the mandatory magazine that I am sure not all of us want. Dues could probably be reduced by at least 30 bucks a year while reducing AMA's costs. That might make all flyers not object...
