[RCSE] "Wait and Wail...NIB Pike Superior For Sale"
This is the same plane I have been flying for the past year or so... Full carbon layup Red Bottoms White Tops Red Tip Accents Yellow Fuse (Mine have Blue fuses but the yellow is easier to see at a distance) I bought two spare, but my number one plane has over 1,000 flights on it, five different countries and DS...and is still my number one plane. I have only test flown its back up..so no need to hang on to the spare third. And its time I get a full blown DS ship :-). $1300 plus $20 return shipping on the Sportube I will send it in.

Re: [RCSE] Futaba Super 8UAPS/8UAFS
As a matter of fact I just sent two of my Futaba 8U transmitters in for servicing today. The repair service that Futaba uses works very well. One of the transmitters I sent in was an 8UA system that some aftermarket user had modified to put the three position switch on the left. Guys do this all the time. I have not done this but it is possible to physically move the switch to the other side and perhaps modify the wiring harness so it reaches the new position. I'm a little hazy on what is involved since I have not done that operation myself. Perhaps a better idea is to send the transmitter to the Futaba service center and ask to have it changed over to "switch mode 1". If you go with the do-it-youself method then you will have a problem if you ever want to send the transmitter in for any sort of repair work. The first thing they will insist on doing is to return the transmitter to factory standard condition before doing any other work. They won't mind putting the transmitter into factory standard condition as a "switch mode one" transmitter but you will have to get that done before any other factory service work can be done on the transmitter, so you might want to consider getting that conversion done from the beginning rather than attempting some non standard modification yourself first. I have been impressed with the service they have offered and it did not seem expensive either. They will fix every little thing on the transmitter that you send them including the replacement of broken switches, etc. It will be just like a new transmitter when they are done. Here is a link to the service center; http://www.futaba-rc.com/service.html You just fill out and print a repair order and send that in with the transmitter. For an extra $35.00 they will give you a two day turnaround time also.

Re: [RCSE] Futaba Super 8UAPS/8UAFS
The question is has anybody modified their radio and switch the switches around on the transmitter? Yes this is a standard proceedure, the switches are mounted on their own little pc boards, so you have to desolder the leads and make new longer leads to route the switch and pc board to the other side. I don't remember if the pc boards are fitted, you may have to actually swap the boards to the reciprocal switches, then extend the leads. Not a big deal though. While you are at it, why not order some better switches to replace them with! Even radio shack switches are more robust than the flimsey things that come with the radio.

Re: [RCSE] Wanted: Multiplex Antenna
The results I got were difficult to obtain. I had to use a poor performance antenna on the receiver with the added noise of an electric motor & controller to see any problems. With this poor installation, the Smiley was unflyable. The Becker did OK but the range was limited to ~200 feet. Then it'd begin to glitch badly. Only the factory antenna worked well but I only flew it to ~500 feet. Though it never did experience glitching at that range. Your 50% approximation of the Smiley's loss of range is pretty good. I'd "ballpark" the Becker at 25%. The theoretical minimum loss to any of these coiled antennas is quoted to be 15%. But I've never experienced that personally. My saying is "the shorter the antenna, the worser the performance". I've never found anything that disagrees with this though I'd love to find one.

Re: [RCSE] Wanted: Multiplex Antenna
I have two Smiley's, a Becker and the factory original antennas. All four work nicely on my MPX transmitter. Each just screws in. No adapters are needed. I think George Voss still sells the Smiley's quite reasonably priced if you're looking for one. However, don't fall into the trap of thinking they work the same. I've experimented with all three and can tell you from empirical evidence that they do NOT. The Factory unit is still the best. The Becker is number 2. The Smiley is number 3. All are fine for a good receiver installation. But there is a difference between them so be aware of it and the possible limitations it COULD impart to a specific plane. Personally, I fly foamies with the Smiley and crunchies with the stock. Though number 2 in performance, the Becker is the coolest.

Re: [RCSE] Wanted: Multiplex Antenna
Well, I already have a smiley short antenna. The thing is, I don't trust that one when flying my scale ship at aero tow events. Has anyone had any problems at all with the smiley? From what I have heard, the range with the smiley is about 1/2 of the OEM antenna, which *should* be fine but I don't like to experiment with my scale glider.
