Default RE: radio help

ORIGINAL: fusebmx13

Dude if you guys would read, he has an e flite blade cx2. It has the spektrum type radio. It comes with that radio. He is asking if he can switch from that heli and put it into a foamy. Would it perform the same? You guys arent being very helpful at all. and eating breakfast has nothing to do with the subject. Sure he isnt very smart flying in the street but who cares its not his video. Just answer the questions, its not that hard, we dont need your snotty comments.
He has this radio
It would help if you lightened up a tad.

First of all, perhaps some of the replies came from people that have no idea what a Blade something or other is and could care less. The question was about the receiver, which is clearly a Spektrum receiver. And, most people know that a Spektrum receiver is for use with a Spektrum transmitter, no matter what the label is. So, the basic answer is YES. And, it was answered several times.

And would it perform the same? Well, if the Blade something or other is a helicopter.. then you figure that out. There are some very basic differences between a helicopter (ummm rotary wing..) and a (fixed wing) foamie. The helicopter will perform as a helicopter would. A A fixed wing will perform as a fixed wing. And as I said, it (the radio system) will most likely work for both applications unless the radio transmitter is specifically designed for helicopters and the controls are different... but I doubt that.

The "ADVICE" about the video is for the kid's sake, not yours. If you wish to fly on your street.. knock yourself out. Just don't go to the AMA or some other organization except your homeowners insurance for help when you break someone's window, or smash someone's head (perhaps for that, you may wish to also contact an Attorney). It's just not a good idea to fly on a street like that.

Sarcastic reply? Sure. But, no less than yours was. Lighten up and realize that, as Ozmo said, the question has been answered and some valuable advice given.

As for the breakfast.. the eggs are good, the bacon is a tad high, but if only one or two slices, then that's ok. The oatmeal toasts.. yum! Even with butter! I think I'll have that this morning. Thanks, Irish.

And, since we're being critical this morning, stasoccerkid, that's wOndering not wAndering: To wonder: Jee, I wOnder if that Spektrum
receiver will cause my foamie to wAnder all over the sky.
