Re: [RCSE] Trouble need help
Tom, When you email airage, if the email comes from EXACTLY the same address you subscribed with, then the server puts the email out to the list immediately. If the sender's address is not on the list of subscribers, then the email sits in a queue until the moderator manually approves the email. This step quite effectively keeps spam off of our list. In short, if your friend wants to post to the list, he needs to do so from the same email account he is subsribed on.

[RCSE] Trouble need help
A friend of mine has signed up on the soaring exchange. He reports that when he sends messages to the group that it takes as much as two days before his mail appears on the list. I seem to recall hearing about this before from others but do not recall what the solution is. What is it? Ed RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] Radio's ???? Is there a question????
Jeeze, guys, don't you know that a "StyLIST" is one who uses a StyLUS radio? This should be obvious, especially to those of you who are SO concerned about the twisting of wire. (Twisted is RIGHT!)

RE: [RCSE] Hitec HS-55
I have used them in two planes. They are pretty good, just keep a couple of extra gear sets handy as I have stripped a couple.

I used to do it the way you describe with a 8103. Now I have the slider with the 10x and it is worth it to me. I only forgot to switch to landing mode once (after several seasons of flying), and tried to land with the camber mode active on a relight situation in F3J... that was the last time. (Everyone got a laugh, I lost a lot a valuable time.) No more having separate camber / landing mode on the throttle stick for me.

Re: [RCSE] Which computer radio?
I went with the 8U because it was affordable, does everything I want, has great quality, looks cool, and my buddy had one and knew how to program it. BTW, you can change the frequency by plugging in different modules available from Futaba, or you can get the "Spectra Module" from Hitec which gives you all the frequencies by turning a screw: http://www.hitecrcd.com/Catalog/Air/Other/spectra_72mhz.html Note: a few people have reported issues with the module in the 8U, but the issue means you have to turn it off and then on again before flying. You can also get get an aftermarket campac (8 more model memories) for cheap here: http://www.users.qwest.net/~slickraft/plus8.htm IMHO, the 8U is the best value. --- Adam Till <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > re: > > "Without everyone spending money I don't have, is > there something else > I should be looking at? > > I know there are no unbiased opinions, but let's > hear them all." > > Posted this to eflight earlier today: > > -- Start of Forwarded Message -- > From: "Adam Till" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Mon, 13 Nov 2000 15:15:01 GMT > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [EFLT] Multiplex Cockpit vs Futaba > 8UAFS > > I was in the market for a new radio earlier in the > year myself, and I > looked at the Cockpit, the 8U, and the JR 8103 in > the process.
