I have 3 myths that I am unsure of...

1) is it ok to pass the antenna over the servos or will that cause any interferance.
I've done it and haven't encountered problems. I do try to route the antenna away from the other wires if possible.
2) do strong earth magnets cause interferance when within 1/2' of the servos, reciever, and antenna?
Several people are using rare earth magnets to hold down boat hatches. In many cases, these are quite close to the radio box. They haven't had radio problems.
Lastly why Can you use 2 st. fuel in a 4 st. engine, why do they create 2 types of fuel if one works on both engines?
Yes, you can use 2 stroke fuel in a 4 cycle engine. Why do they create different types of fuel? In a word, marketing. It seems some people want to buy a special product instead of the same old stuff.
