Default RE: Shaft Coupler - Good/Bad Idea ?


ORIGINAL: larry@coyotenet

It's a question as old as the hobby. Scale looks versus non scale functionality. After having planes crash due to problems associated with trying to look scale and seeing dozens of others bite the dust I opt for functionality over looks every time.

How many reports of the RDS system failing are there? I've never used them, but I have read quite a few threads were guys sware by them. Even the DS'ing glider guys who are flying at 200mph + and at heaps of G's have used them??

I guess i'm asking it there is any actual data or just some age old, "it's new, so it can't be trusted?"

Thanks
