[RCSE] 2.4 Questiion - Antenna Radiation Pattern
What kind of a pattern does the 2.4 tx antenna have? Is it sensitive to orientation like a 72 Mhz tx? In other words, do you have to point the antenna at the plane or hold it broadside to the plane?

Re: [RCSE] War contractors making military models a royalty pain - was: ...Killing the Kit Business
Quoting from the article, "The company wants to ensure that the models are accurate, high-quality and safe, Adams said.". (Adams is a Lockheed Martin spokesman.) Notice the last word, he says "safe". They don't want to get sued as a deep pocket when someone gets hurt by one of their "unapproved" models. Make the royalty high enough and no one will sell the models. Therefore, all models made are unapproved and Lockheed Martin has no responsibility. Follow the big money.

Re: [RCSE] Need some help winding up my hi start.
George, Would you please list some of these planes you are recommending below? Dee Smith George Voss wrote: Well, Stan, a friend of mine suffered a similar fate when he found he needed some heart work. Walking back and forth to chase the 'chute, set up and tear down were too much for him to handle alone. He went to electric sailplanes. There are several planes you can get that weigh less than 80 ounces ready to fly. They have quite spirited launches with their brushless motors, and land slow and controlled with their flaps and ailerons in the 'crow' position. I know that doesn't directly solve the rewind problem, but I thought I'd throw this out to you. gv RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
