(post # 26)

I tried to post this info about all the problems I am having with the FC Mig29 and the moderator deleted my post 2 months ago.
I cant get the lock valve that was supposed to be in the kit. We did find a way to get the gear to work but it requires another channel and a speed control. The gear will stay down if the motor is constantly running at a slow speed. It requires a lot more electronics but it does work. I got an electronic sequencer from a guy in Japan that I am trying to adapt. I will let you know how it works
On the topic of Superman , does anyone know what happened to Dino DiGiorgio's 2 jets? I never saw him have radio troubles before.


Friday evening, shortly after take off, the Talon went into failsafe, Dean regained control , and was setting it up to land when it went into failsafe again causing it to crash. The Talon was set up with CJM's Radio gear TX and RX. Dean did not want to risk useing this gear just in case there was a problem so he had his personal TX and RX overnighted to him to use in the F-15.

Saturday after noon the F-15 again shortly after take- off went in to failsafe and control was never regained. Causeing it to auger into the ground a total loss.

Now, 2 different airframes, 2 different radios, tx and rx, only connection both were channel 26. I checked there was at least 9 other pilots useing channel 26 and asked some if experienced radio problems with a negative reply, no problems one fella got the pin from Dean right after the crashof the F-15, I ask you, is this coincidence?
