RE: Twin Screw Question

So, while this thread is kicking, is the rotation "design specific"? Tugs go this way, ocean liners go that way or is it individual boat specific? I'm working on a Darby with my father and we were...

RE: When failsafe does not work...new thread

It's interesting what you said about the wavelength and reflectivity. My 10x is on Ch17 (lowest I could get for that radio).

RE: When failsafe does not work...new thread

Very nice writeup Lee, thank you.

I think Dave said that his Rx was an R2000 (?). I could be wrong , but it's pretty likely that the firmware differences are minute between the two.

I am...

RE: David Shulman crash at Joe Nall?

If you're referring to the red haze around the airframe prior to it impacting, please read POST #233 (above). It's from the camera zoom coupled with the speed of the aircraft and me tracking the...

RE: David Shulman crash at Joe Nall?

I stand corrected. I just got back from the delta quad and haven't had a chance to brush up on the new specs.

RE: David Shulman crash at Joe Nall?

The red you see is from the zoom on the camera and not it coming apart in flight. But then again, it might have been a midair with a romulan cloaked pigeon.

RE: David Shulman crash at Joe Nall?

A system is only as strong as it's weakest link. Sadly, this is often the human component. I was flying at a club a couple of years ago and was nearly shot down by someone who didn't check the pin...

RE: David Shulman crash at Joe Nall?

If it hasn't happened yet, it probably never will.

So with that in mind, would converting the 10x to spectrum eliminate the faulty FS in the stock JR gear? Or would it be better to just get a...

RE: David Shulman crash at Joe Nall?

Dave,

Thanks for the R&D on the radios. I fly a 10X and do appreciate the info very much. Condolences on the airframe, and I hope to see you at Nall 08.

RE: David Shulman crash at Joe Nall?

To me it looks like there is a 6 frame spread (from #6 to #12) that shows the reaction time. #6 being the input of stimulus, to #12 being the reaction to the stimulus. 6 frame = 200ms, which is the...

RE: David Shulman crash at Joe Nall?

The video is 30fps. The pitchover actually starts in frame 6. 8 frames later is impact. That translates to .27 seconds.

Nice avatar JAS.

I heard the same story from 2 sources after the incident about the landing gear issue/landing.

RE: David Shulman crash at Joe Nall?

The raw frames are much clearer than any of the video I've posted. From what I remember, the nose looks fine all the way. There was a 2 frame pitch up before it nosed over, and right at nose over...

RE: David Shulman crash at Joe Nall?

Is that from the slow-mo, or the very last full speed clip? Don't trust the slow mo, it's time recompressed and is interpolated.

I'll try to post the raw frames later (this dang work thing...

I was trying to update one of my earlier posts, the edited contet didn't work, but it ended up creating a second post (the one I asked to delete). Double posting = bad, ergo please delete.
