Default RE: A Long Time Coming

It good to see the interest and support of my peers here. Had the system out agine this morning (with the Hitecs) and agine it was flawless with a different student. Which I knew would be after these many many months of waiting and Watching my bud (fellow instructor
as well as his students) enjoy the benefits.

OK all my effort has been to how this system could be adapted to Hitec systems so my knowledge of the original Futaba system is not perfect but here goes as I believe: First Yes Chucksolo The Tactic system is capable but it is not the same as the orginal futaba setup and the one I have borrowed and used, The hardware may be different.

The original set up is compatable down to at least the 7C 2.4 versions and may go down to the 6EX 2-4 . I will be able to confirm that soon anyway as I obtained a 6EX to experiment with as I want to be capable with the Futabas also and have three more small Rx's coming to experiment also with crossing futaba and Hitec student boxes.

Oppose yes there are eight channel versions of these itty bittys that should work as well and two the ones I have on the way are that one. As far as doing the same for Spectrum or JR I have no interest only Hitec/futaba so will leave that to others.

I am convinced this will be almost as close to the original impact on flight training as the introduction of the first buddy cords
