RE: Art-Tech 3Ch Cessna 182 RC Radio Control Plane

Hiya guys - I used to use TPro till I found E-Max 2805/2812/2822 etc - they all use the same backplate mounting, but the E-Max has 4 bolt holes not 3. The 2805 is 2500Kv, 2812 is 1600+ Kv and the...

RE: Art-Tech 3Ch Cessna 182 RC Radio Control Plane

RE: Art-Tech 3Ch Cessna 182 RC Radio Control Plane

Ash - that makes as much sense as a drunken Australian!! Is it something to do with "thanks for the information etc"??? That 99 pounds is what I paid at my LHS Paisley Model Centre, and it doesn't...

RE: Art-Tech 3Ch Cessna 182 RC Radio Control Plane

Gronsta - you won't believe how good even the DX6i is until you play around with the settings. Mongrel gave me some help for my Multiplex EasyCub, and it transformed the plane from a handful into...

RE: Art-Tech 3Ch Cessna 182 RC Radio Control Plane

Ash99 and Mongrel and anyone else with a DX6i etc - that E-Bay website IS cheaper by far for all the Spectrum RX's, except the full range AR6200!!!!!!! Thats about the same as the UK. So the moral of...

RE: Art-Tech 3Ch Cessna 182 RC Radio Control Plane

JohnM - I'll have to check the exchnge rate, but if the Au$ is about the same as the American greenbacks then the AR6200 is the same price as the LHS site I posted earlier. That site was also free...

RE: Art-Tech 3Ch Cessna 182 RC Radio Control Plane

Ash99 - what JohnM (Mongrel) says is right, the DX7 is excellent, but if you are on a budget or want some extra cash for planes look at the DX6i, which comes with the full range AR6200 RX. If you fly...

RE: Art-Tech 3Ch Cessna 182 RC Radio Control Plane

RE: Art-Tech 3Ch Cessna 182 RC Radio Control Plane

Solostu - the problem with the Slow Stick was a sticking rudder servo, giving it a constant spiral effect. Did I hear that right, Mongrel crashed? Nay, never - he's been on the BBQ/beers thread...

RE: Art-Tech 3Ch Cessna 182 RC Radio Control Plane

RE: Art-Tech 3Ch Cessna 182 RC Radio Control Plane

John - but you're not a member of a club when you fly with crawf and the guys, public areas, right? And the guys you see flying there do they all have insurance and I don't mean the BBQ guys?

RE: Art-Tech 3Ch Cessna 182 RC Radio Control Plane

RE: Art-Tech 3Ch Cessna 182 RC Radio Control Plane
