Default RE: In flight transmitter programming.

Every one here has different flying skills... If you don't know your radio and have to use
your bifocals to program it, I don't think programing in the air is for you...

15 years ago I took off a prop plane with reversed ailersons and almost crashed it
but at the last min I pushed rev stick and flew the plane up to alitude with rev ailerons...
Because I knew the radio like the back of my hand, at 1000 feet, with help, I took my eyes
off the plane and rev channel 1 in less than 2 sec...

Now just because I can do it, there is no way I will tell someone else what they sould or should not do...

The key here is to know what you can and can't do.. I like the way David trimed his plane
with the PMix, with a buddy card... That is a good idea.... But the key is David was not rushed
and he knew what he was changing.

I think its more important to not to over estimate your abilities..
