Re: [RCSE] Jack Benny is 39 and 2.4 is 38? Thanks for the 'assurances and guesses!

Steve Kaluf's employment at AMA was terminated last August. They are currently 
seeking a new Technical Director per their Now Hiring area but the ad states 
they wanted applications no later than Sept 28th. Not sure if they have a 
replacement yet.

I would expect the spektrum limit and what happens when the channels are 
occupied was addressed to the AMA's satisfaction.  Perhaps asking Steve Kaluf 
is in order.  He's the AMA tech guy.

basically...the mixing systems shouldn't be any issue.  The Futaba systems 
represent momentary narrow band emissions and as such will not interfere with

radios on at the same time, then number 40 will not be able to achieve a lock 
with the receiver.that one won't be able to fly till one of the other ones 
is turned off...none of the other ones currently on will be affected by the 
40th one..the Futaba and JR systems use VERY different Spread Spectrum 
systems...the Futaba frequency hopping system basically uses a narrow band 
signal but change the frequency across a wide spectrum..the JR/Spektrum 
Direct Sequence system literally spreads the data packets across a wide 
spectrum.the great part about this is when the receiver puts all of this 
back together.the direct sequence system reduces the background 
interference to a minimum..

[RCSE] Old Old Servo Arms needed :-)

  Wanted old servo armsPosted by:  
vh4143 [EMAIL PROTECTED]  
  Wed Dec 26, 2007 2:56 am(PST)   G'day 
all and all the best for the new year.
 
 My old KRAFT gear is still going strong and is OK for gliders and some
 power models. So from time to time I have inherited some old but good
 stuff over the years. Some as spare parts and some useful.
 
 A project that is in the wind I will need to buy a new wireless set.
 Even my JR is approaching its 21st birthday.
 
 I have 2 KPS-30 servos and very few arms.
 
 Would any one have any servo arms to fit these oldies.
 
 I believe that were made by Multiplex and re badged by KRAFT. They
 have a black case, quite different from the KRAFT mustard.
 
 The spline output on the servo measures 4.86mm.
 
 If any one has any to trade or sell I would like to hear from you.
 They are not the usual JR splines
 
 Cheers and thanks in advance jq

Can't help. Only have the old square ones. They are old enough that I don't 
know if I'd trust them not to be brittle.

[RCSE] Ralph Gustafson

2007-12-27 Thread Craig Allen
I thought I would repost this here as our soaring community in not just local 
to SVSS Sacramento Ca. For those of you who have attended our Spring Fling you 
might remember Ralph as the white haired tireless sole who ran the transmitter 
impound.

Ralph Gustafson passed away on Christmas Evening at the age of 60.

Ralph was an all around nice guy and gentle sprint who is going to be
 missed by many including myself.. I'm still in shock and can't believe
 the friend who was always so so supportive and had such a positive
 influence in my life is gone.
 
 He was taken too too early dammit.
 
 I'd like to tell you a short story about Ralph that many of you
 probably don't know
 
 Some years ago my German friend Jochen came to visit and brought a
 small EPP speed 400 racer with him that would fit into a suitcase...
 Jocken asked me what I thought...Should he sell this plane or not? I
 said it was EPP, it was Speed 400, it was crap So the next day we
 meet Ralph at the field and Ralph goes crazy over this plane... I had
 to admit it did fly nice... But Ralph was so supportive Jocken gave
 him the plane before he left...
 
 Jocken emailed me after his return to Germany and told me to look at
 this link
 
 It was a link to the EPP plane... And what was its name? The Mini Ralf
   When I asked Jocken about the name he laughed like not many
 Germans do and said he had to name it after my friend Ralph because he
 was such a great guy
 
 Jocken went on to sell several thousand of the Mini Ralf until it was
 discontinued just this year
 
 Very few of us will ever have a plane named after us Ralph was
 just that kind of special guy.  I'm sure their is probably a Mini-Ralf
 flying some were right now in honor of Ralph Gustafson :-)))
