Thanks Dave I would appreciate that. Typically I am seeing a lot of folks on the Powerbox Support Forum who write in with questions and then never follow up after getting advice, bloody bad manners if you ask me
I am being dragged kicking and screaming into the world of telemetry. I have also seen a lot of very nice airplanes crashed needlessly in the last few years due to systems confusion and system operator errors, not all of them model aircraft either. It's a slippery slope.
A lot of these sensors, temp, rpm, etc. could probably be moved on to the next aircraft after establishing a correct set up too.
I'd like to give a little shout out for you personally here, I love your column in the Jet International Magazine and especially the way you try to simplify and instruct, it is the voice of reason and often common sense in an increasingly complicated hobby. I always read the beginner and how to columns. I'm still learning. I soldered together my first radio in, I think 1976, a Heathkit. I am from the world of "look for good advice and take it". But when I offer advice it is often disregarded, by young or old newcomers to the hobby, is instructing now insulting? So now I actually try not to! We have beginners to the hobby that are just learning to fly R/C, and they want to do it with jets, and they don't want advice? Crazy... Keep up the good work!
P.S. That rant was NOT directed at anyone on the forum, anyone here is likely trying to learn.
