Hello,
300Hz is equivalent to 18,000 RPM, I'm not sure what RPM is full throttle, but it's not uncommon to see some kind of sub harmonic less than 1X rotational speed. However, you should see some strong 1X signal in the spectrum.

Ultrasound is 20K hz or roughly 1,200,000 RPM. Ultrasound and vibration are the same thing, same spectrum, different realm. Any signatures that high in frequency will be very low amplitude. I have a hard time believing it could interfere with a flight stabilization hardware. But I do not know flight stabilization hardware....

FWIW

The noise of a jet engine has nothing to do with mechanical vibration of the engine so you cannot simply try to equate rpm to Hz. The noise is made by oscillations in the airflows. Have you never heard the very high pitch screeching of air at the front of a jet engine?

If noise didn’t cause vibration your ears couldn’t work

I didn't say anything about noise. The post was about the vibration spectrum. And yes, Hz can be converted to RPM.

The whole issue has been about noise, not mechanical vibration in the low frequencies shown in the Assist vib analyser which is aimed at airframe vibration in the frequencies caused by piston engines. Perhaps you have not read the thread, all along it has been about ultrasonic acoustic interference of MEMS gyros. The noise is caused by the airflow, not the movement of engine parts.

Jeti USA Press Release!!!

We would like to announce that February 23, 2021 the Federal Communication Commission and Industry Canada, Granted Equipment Authorization (FCC), and Certificate of Acceptance (IC) to Jeti USA (Esprit Model Inc.) for the Jeti Rsat 900NG 900MHz Receiver!!!

All USA orders will go out in next day or two, unfortunately Canada will have to wait till next week.

Please do not forget to Update your Transmitter and Rsat 900NG Receiver once you get it.

Designed specifically for the Jeti DS-12 radio. Your transmitter is securely held with included fasteners (requires drilling) or double side pre-cut tape. Powder coated, stainless steel holder simply bolts to jeti transmitter brackets. Folding brackets with transmitter holder easily fit into soft or aluminum transportation case.

ZB, will this work with my existing DC-24?

PS that is the RSat 900NG

The NG900 only works with the DS12 and DC/DS16 II

I'm reposting the steps I use to build a program for a jet, it can also be a guide to build programs for prop airplanes, I'm doing that at the moment for my 30cc Citabria.

This list is a guide, you can modify it to your needs, these steps are directed to the new Jeti users to give them an idea where to start, to reinforce your knowledge, watch Harry's videos ( we all have ) my transmitter is a DS12.

Hope this helps

Flight report.

I re-maiden my 30cc GP Citabria last week ( was put away for 5 years ) with a 7chl assist receiver, needless to say, all went well, today I programed and made the first flight with the assist turned on, it was a joy to have the assist on ( windy/gusty ) conditions today.

I did an acoustics check before the flight, it was all over the place on all 3 axis, the control surfaces didn't move at all, the gain was turned to 100% + so, I took her up and all was fine, I increased the gain by 12 points, I think it can go up a lot more, this is the first time for me flying a prop plane with an assist receiver turned on.

So far all my experiences with the assist receivers have been a success, including my 3 jets, I also flew a 90 size ME109 last week with a 12chl assist receiver, I have not turned on the gyro on this one yet, my success has been mostly because of the incredible support from the many guys willing to help and of course, Harry's videos which I review now and then to keep up with the latest.

Thank you all

In a few words, I'm very happy with my Jeti system.

Ok
​​​I'm having a timer problem that I need help to figure it out,.

I flew my Turbinator 3 times today, the timer worked fine on flight 1&2, on the 3rd flight it did not started to count down, I landed the jet right away, I checked the timer on all my models and the only one that works as it is intended ( all are set to start with chl 4, throttle ) is the one in my Citabria, as soon as the throttle stick is moved it runs but the other ones don't.

what is it that I'm missing here?

Tks

That's a strange one... In the past I used to use Advanced, sticks/switches to set the throttle stick switch position when used with timers so the timer started when the throttle stick was advanced past 25% and I'm wondering if you perhaps did something like that to your Citabria which may make is act differently from your other models. I recently noticed that by default, setting the switch for timer start to P4 (throttle for mode 2) it wants the throttle to go all the way to 100% to start the timer after which it will continue to run assuming you selected "free running" for the timer type. I'm wondering if perhaps your throttle stick calibration is off very slightly preventing it from reaching it's full 100% so it doesn't start the timer?? Doesn't seem all that likely but it's something to check..
Good luck figuring it out.

Is is possible you assigned a switch to enable / disable it?

I had the timer set up the way you describe it on all my models before, now, the timer runs the moment P4 is moved up past the first click.

Rick
I had the same thought and flip all the switches, nothing change.

I know this is user induced, I will report back when I find the fix.

Tks.

Well, well, the timers are back to normal like nothing happened, I did not do a thing to fix them, no clue as why they stop working and what made them work again 🙄

The important thing is that they are back to normal.
