[RCSE] 2.4 IRCHA

2007-12-28 Thread ivanbrian
I see in MA that there were 712 flyers at the chopper event, and only 150 on 
72, but I do not see any mention of how many flyers were allowed up at the same 
time. Any of y'all hear? Thanks Brian Smith
 
PS I'm sure Gordy is wondering too.  ;o)

[RCSE] IRCHA and 2.4

2007-12-28 Thread Jim McCarthy
There were 17 active flight stations.  Someone else will need to comment how 
they controlled who turned on and when. One assumption in all of this is that 
since they did not impound 2.4 TX's they could have had a huge number turned 
on.  Think about how many people would be setting up and tweaking their models 
in the pits.

RE: [RCSE] 2.4 IRCHA

2007-12-28 Thread John Diniz
Brian, All,

There were 20 flight stations at IRCHA. 

The point about IRCHA is that you had 550+ transmitters in the pits and on the 
flight line and there were no issues reported regarding interference or linking 
up and no crashes due to radio hits on 2.4 - Spektrum, Futaba, XPS. The IRCHA 
organizers (not Spektrum or Futaba or XPS) are the ones saying that the reason 
for the record number of pilots was due to 2.4GHz.

It's about safety where Spektrum is concerned. You will not be shot down by 
anyone turning on there transmitter using Spektrum DSM2. If you turn on and the 
"magic number" is already on (40 for DSM2) your system will not link up. No one 
who is already on is affected. And unlike hopping systems DSM2 will not slow 
down when the band is populated with transmitters. 

Finally - We have, and continue to do extensive testing internally and with the 
AMA. I believe that Futaba has as well. JR/Horizon and Futaba are working with 
the Japanese modeling authorities and 2.4 will be approved in Japan next year. 
Horizon and Spektrum have also been working with the UK governing bodies there 
as well. It's not "marketing BS". Fact is 2.4 works and its there if you want 
to use it. It's safe and you can ask the guys that are using it if they can 
feel the difference on the sticks and in peace of mind.

Thanks,
JD

17 - 20 somewhere in that range. There was also a testing area for
hovering and setting up helis back behind the main flying area.

[RCSE] Best 2 meter for NATS

2007-12-28 Thread eschlitzkus

OK here we go, what is the best 2 meter for the NATS??? I know you guys
will say the Duck, but you can't get one. In the past my super light,
thin cord home brew(26oz)did not do very well. I had my  :censored: 
kicked on launch do to 300 winch line. I was thinking something with
more cord and mass will do better.
