Volfy,
I just found out on another thread about tower's mistake! I was mesmerised how "light" it was. I'm probably gonna get a 91 then. I don't know, decisions, decisions

Wolf123, what the heck is a potentiometer?? And how do I reverse its polarity?

simply : there are 3 lead just invert left with right ,don't touch the central.but what type of radio you have.possibly you don't use software reverse?????the potentiometer i simply the pot

My radio can do the most needed mixing, but is not a computer non-computer radio(Futaba 6DA), It has the ability to reverse channels, but I don't know how I could reverse a single servo on a Y-Harness.

on this type of radio you buy a servo reverser
but the edge have the servo disposed that servo 1 is right
and servo 2 is left and i use a y harness

What's the mistake?

Tower has the 1.08(improperly) posted as 23(or something) oz. It actually about 33(with muffler). Thats a big difference. I think A 91 2-stroke *might* be a better choice given the weight difference. Unless, that is, if you have to add a bunch of weight to the nose anyway, it might not matter.

thanks

with the 91fx we had to add 65-70g up front.

mount trottle servo near battery on engine bay and you save 50-60g

wolf123, would you suggest the 91fx over the 1.08? The 91 should have more than enough power, shouldn't it?

I just ordered a Futaba 9C radio. I'm still confused how it would be able to reverse a single servo through a Y connection(if I was using two for the elevator, for example). Or, do you put them on different channels and mix them together?

Yes, You should put them on different channels, the same was you do your 2 ailerons. Its nice that way too, because you can adjust each elevator half independently if you want to.

Tower is having a super deal on 9C radio systems $20 off, $20 gift certificate, memory expansion module, and $30 more off through special flyer discount!!! What a deal!

hi ptarp
nice radio ,91 is just for this airframe 2 or 4 stroke
do you think 1.08 have more power than 91 fx??
remember before mount tt 91fs i fly it with YS FZ63
regards mirco

The specs on Towers website says that the 1.08 has more power than the .91. But who knows.... That might be wrong too.

Keep in mind that OS specifically does not recommend a large dia. low pitch prop for the 91FX. They suggest 13x8 and 13x9. IMHO it will be more than powerful enough for normal aerobatic routines. If you plan on flying 3D and swinging a big prop, then maybe other engines would be better suited.

9C is a wonderful radio and is what I have. With this type aircraft, you can easily program for the dual aileron servos simply by enabling the flapperon mix. This way, you can use the subtrim function of each channel to set the position of each aileron half just right, and also dial in the right amount of aileron differential, if required. You don't necessarily need the flapperon function, but enabling it make programming very simple.

Hey Ptarp,
Where do you get the $30 flyer discount??

Ditto what hyperviper said

I ordered my 9C today and it has already shipped!!! I'm so excited

great radio we use a 9chp/pcm

Holy cow, I ordered the 9C from tower yesterday, it was at my doorstep when I got home from work!! Talk about speedy! (I live in IL)

Thats really good! I wish I lived that close to them.

No you don't, I had to pay $31 tax

Oh yeah, I forgot about that!

Would someone who has one of these please let me know what the bottom of the wing looks like, is it all white? Thanks. Randy

rkrig.........yes... it is white.....i am putting one together now.......how i love santa!........pault
