Default DX7 UK declaration of conformity??

http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=694644


According to this gentleman seems as if the power output of the DX7 is in dispute and is too high for safe EC/UK operation.

I find this interesting since David Gladwin just did a review in RC Jets International and said in the article it was approved by UK BMFA.

I also found it interesting in this blog and links within that Graupner has their own 2.4G module for JR and has the antenna as part of the module,

Perhaps this JR module will work with the new upcoming JR proprietary 2.4G 9303 systems???

If you read the thread you will find that his statement is disputed.
He is a bit behind the times.
The 10mw output was for park flyers etc.
The limit was raised to 100W to give full range (Same in the USA I believe).

The DX7 complies with European regulations.

it is all about max power

in Germany the max output allowed on 2,4 ghz systems (endusers not commercial) is 100 Mw
unfortunaly Graupner has to obey the german laws and therfore can NOT release the 110 mw yet...
since all DX-7,s have more then the 100 Mw.
Spektrum sells them at 100 Mw but some untis have far more then that.
must be logistic horror sitting on boxes full of trannies and cant sell them...[:-]
this is again a stupid law that differs from country to country.
in belgium the max is 10mw..
true they all have CE mnarkings but with a ! behind it.
this means that the system may differ in some country,s...
what happened to the time where Cellulars blow out 8 watt ,you could start TL tubes with your Walkie Talkie

to infinety and beyond...

That was the situation when I was preparing the article and was taken directly from the BMFA's newsletter. (although I live mostly in Australia, I spend about 3 months per year in the UK and I am still a BMFA member) So far as I know it is still correct.

Regards,

David Gladwin.

This is a data sheet for a product my company installs (we fit between 10 and 30 pairs per month!) And if you read the 2.4 GHz unit it is 100mw with a range of up to 40km (with 23db gain antenna) I would imagine that the radiated power from these is far higher than a DX7!!!! I love my DX7, I have 2 sets with 15 receivers and fly them in everything inc. jets and it’s a breath of fresh air. Lets hope all this Boll@x don’t spoil it. I think there is a definite alteria motive behind this, and it should stop. I know of hundreds of transmitters installed that are way above the 100mw limit (most are!!) and it is accepted in the industry and OFCOM turn a blind eye as there is absolutely no way they have the resources to deal with it!!
