Default RE: Optic vs. Eclipse

ORIGINAL: buzzard bait

Extremely helpful, Mike, thanks.

A couple more questions--these are probably considered pretty standard features, but just to make sure:

1. the Optic feature list doesn't mention a buddy box switch--does it have one?

2. aileron-rudder coupling? Could I put that on an assignable switch?

Last question--I'm thinking about the Spectra module. What do you do on the Tx to change the frequency?

I would only need it if someone who flies a lot joined the club on my frequency. That happened to me right after buying my Flash 5 and it would have been great to just buy a couple rx crystals and switch. But does it really make sense just for that? I could buy a different frequency module for the tx, right? But it would give me some peace of mind to know that I would have the flexibility to switch easily. Just wondering how much people actually use them.

Thanks again, Mike.

Jim
Trainer: Yes, toggle switch.
Aileron-Rudder mix: Yes.
Assignable: Yes.

The Spectra module has two dials on the side to select the channel.

Mike.
