RFFS100 Answers
Hi Everybody,
1) JR/Airtronics-Clarence says that, based on preliminary tests, he believes that he can provide JR/Airtronics compatible systems. His tests have been strickly "lab" tests with "electronics wizard testing stuff" (my words), but results look good. He does not yet have access to a JR or Airtronics transmitter to do "real world" tests.
2) 36mhz-he is planning tests soon to accomodate those R/Cers "down under" as long as they are on FM type transmitters.
3) Ailerons: The RFFS100 can control an aileron/elevator airplane by using two "micro servos" in parallel on the ailerons plus one on the elevator.
4) The first batch of the new series of crystals (some channels-but not all yet) have arrived and "work perfectly".
5) About half of the first run of populated PCBs have been shipped to Clarence's secret workshop (in a motorhome-somewhere deep in the sunny south) with an ETA of next Tues or Wed.
6) The Micro Servo coils manufacturer is still saying "end of January".
7) Both AFF and DU will be stocking the recommended KP00 geared motors & U80 props. Motor/Prop Comb price: $18.00
8) AmericanFunFly co's website has been updated in the the last couple of days-check it out. (please be careful where you step while there as there is a lot of stuff "still under construction".
7) Bob (and any others who need to know) - Did you receive our intro letter with instructions as to how to place an order, yet? If not, let me know at:

8) We have deposits for close to 60 systems as of today.
Thanks for your interest!
