RE: [RCSE] JR/Specktrum 2.4 Stuff, Bet You Didn't Know This!
I own (and use) the 9303 in 72 mHz, 2.4 Add on Module, and 2.4 Integrated. The only real difference between the 2.4 Module and Integrated that matters is the model memory. I may be a knucklehead (and I have the 72 and 2.4 Integrated on slightly different models, one on a Pike Perfect, and one on a Pike Perfect Light), but I don't notice any difference in response or in latency. I suspect that if I could A/B quickly back and forth between the two radios on the same plane, that I might notice a difference. Where this feature will pay off is on helicopters and/or 3D type electrics. ** Henry P.

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Fri, April 18, 2008 12:47 pm To: Soaring@airage.com Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have owned an XPS conversion for my 9303 for some time and used it at the SWC in my Woody, the same carbon fuse challenges apply to their system but not much has been done by sailplaners to solve the install to make it work I'm new to the JR Spektrum systems so spending more time and thought on it right nowand like the rest of us, I've been nagging the experts with questions, so to minimize FAQ's I'll keep sharing what I find out.:-) I asked if there was a difference between a dedicated 2.4 9303 and a 9303 with a Spektrum 2.4 module, cuz you knowlike all sailplaners I'm cheap! :-) I had heard some thing on the fields about one being faster or some such so didn't pay much attention, but there really is a reason to get the dedicated 2.4 TX. Take a look, Integrated 2.4 has 2048 resolution and lower latency (faster response time) then the module system which reads the PPM data stream coming off the pins into the module. With the module the speed and feeling is the same as a PCM system. Also the integrated X9303 gives you Model Match (model is linked to the model number in the tx so if you're not on the correct model it don't work) and Servo Sync (data stream is changed so servos on the same surface receive data at the same time: most noticeable on heli collective and elevators on GS models). So there you go! :-) Gordy **Need a new ride? Check out the largest site for U.S. used car listings at AOL Autos.

[RCSE] Contest Format
This topic always brings a chuckle to me. Larry's idea is the only one (other than rolling dice or cutting cards) that gives everyone an even chance to win with no regard for their skills or equipment. If that's what you're looking for, that's the way to go. But who's looking for that? I've been to contests for over 20 years, and the best pilots, with the best skills and equipment usually win, as they should. What would be the point of anything else? Does winning a contest by luck make anyone feel any better? I doubt it. The real benefit of contest flying (to me) is the comradery, the sport, the challenge, and the competition (the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat). I would never throw that away for a win of a luck driven contest. The pilots that are better than I (and there are many), challenge me and push me to fly better. I wouldn't have it any other way!

[RCSE] Inexpensive Power towing
Scott Marnoch and I have been doing some towing with the Multiplex Magister and Easy Glider combination. It is a blast. We have two Magisters powered with AXI 2826/08 with a three bladed 11 x 7 prop and two 3-cell lipo 2200 maH battery packs. It is a real blast. Scott made tow cables approx 60 long, and with the large tricycle gear on the Magister it is easy to get the two up off the ground. With a Castle Creations Speed Controller, you can program the power down to about 300 Watts which is more than enough and keeps up the flight time. You can tow the easy glider quite high and it flys real well, not at all like a foam sailplane. It is lightly loaded (less than 6 oz/ft sq). We modified the glider by building a simple releasable tow hook on it. The Magister has a built in tow release so you can release from either end (glider or tow plane). That came in handy on the second attempt when Scott (flying tow) and I (fling the glider) both realized at the same instant that we had a problem and release both ends simultaneously. That left the tow line free falling and both planes ok. I know that Scott has some pictures of the flying, and I have a couple of the mods that Scott came up with to the Easy Glider for the tow hook if anyone is interested. The Magister is about $110 and the Easy Glider $90 or so. The Magister comes with a stock 680 motor. I tried that first, but its a little power short. ** Henry P.

RE: [RCSE] RES Question
I have two Topaz's and love them both. One has the original airfoil, and
one has an airfoil just like the AVA (more camber and thus a bit slower
with less penetration). I prefer the original airfoil (better
penetration).
The Topaz is extremely strong and durable.
The new Topaz also has a smaller spoiler. I prefer the original wide
spoiler. I fly my Topaz with a Futaba Gyro in the mid section just below
the wing operating the rudder on final approach.
You can get the Topaz from Alberto at Hobby Club.

RE: [RCSE] Can I. . .with the 9303??
The best switch setup is to slightly moddify the radio and move the Elevator dual rate switch to the right front panel (where the thermal/cruise/speed switch is located), move the launch/cruise/land switch one place to the left( where the elev d/r switch was) and rotate it 180 degrees, and move the thermal/cruise/speed switchh (that you took out in the first step) over to the remaining hole to (the right of the launch/cruise/land switch). This will let you operate all of the flight modes with your left thumb. There are instructions (in pdf format) with many pictures on how to do this at www.rcsoaring.com under documents and tips - JR9303 Sailplane Switch Modifications. It taks around 45 minutes, a small soldering iron, and a 6 piece of hookup wire to do the modification. -Original Message- From: Harley Michaelis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 19, 2005 7:37 PM To: soaring@airage.com Subject: [RCSE] Can I. . .with the 9303??

Will the throttle trim tab then effect both flaps? Can I bypass flipping any switches? Is it simple to get rudder mixed in with ailerons? Is it easy to program for Dual Rates on elevator and ailerons? What kind of running time are you getting on the standard battery pack? That's all I need to fly the Genie, the LT/S or the Genie Pro. The other things can come later. I have no time now to deal with them. have rudder mixed in with ailerons. Question. Will the throttle trim tab then move both flaps?remain The other stuff can come later. Would it be a simple and sure programming procedure to do those things??? Also, does the radio allow independent programming for throw and neutrals of each aileron.of each aileron? (1) use the throttle stick to move both flaps to the full down positioonindependently get each flap to a full down position on the throttle stick? (2) Would the throttle trim tab be functional to simultaneously effect up or down movement of both flaps? (2) dial in down elevator compensation with down flaps? (3) independently program each aileron for throws and differential? (4) Mix rudder in with ailerons? RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] 9303 Sailplane Modification
After using it for around 3 months in the conventional way (way it was intended to be used), I modified my JR 9303. This was also prompted by the way Joe has set up his 9303. He programmed the Elev D/R switch on the far left to be launch mode on/off (toward you or down is on), and he programmed the Land/Cruise/Launch switch to be Thermal/Cruise/Speed. I think he also had to change the wiring on one of the switches, or turn it around. This allows all of the various modes to be accessed with your left thumb so that you can keep your right hand on the stick where it belongs. My solution was slightly different, and required a tiny bit of easy rewiring and relocation which is very easy on this radio. The total modification took around 45 minutes including figuring out what to do. The result is that my far left switch is Launch/Cruise/Land switch moved over one position to the left and rotated 180 degrees so that Launch mode is toward you (down) and Landing Mode is full up or away. The three position switch from the right (Thermal/Cruise/Speed) is then relocated where the left three position switch was located (requires one longer wire). The Elev D/R switch that was on the far left is now where the Thermal/Cruise/Speed switch was located next to the Ail D/R switch. The radio front panel switches are now located as follows (from left to right): Land Speed Flap Trim Aux Trim Elev D/R Aile D/R Cruise Cruise Launch Thermal I will be modifying another for a friend and I will take some pictures of what to do. If anyone else is interested just email me direct and I can send you the info on how to do it. ** Henry P.

RE: [RCSE] nagging 9303 issue
I have programmed my 9303 to do all of what you need. There is no need to have a landing switch that allows the throttle stick to provide flaps/crow/elevator comp. I do reduce the diff with the landing switch, but never have it turn the throttle stick on/off ... it's on all the time. -Original Message- From: Glauco Lago [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 29, 2004 12:02 PM To: Jon Stone Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [RCSE] nagging 9303 issue I flew with a Futaba 8U for several years and forgot to activate the landing switch only few times but now I'm a happy owner of a 9303 and decided to try something different. What I'm doing is having the landing flaps and flap-elev mix always on and assigned to the throtle stick. The right lever sets the amount of launch camber using two linear mixes with the Aux 4 channel. The left lever is used to camber changes during the flight. So right now I have only one switch to change from launch to cruise (I'm using the top right switch behind the trainer switch). If I wanted to actually use a landing mode to change trims and expos it still could be done but the way it is if I forget to flip the landing switch most of the landing functions would still work.

I can deal with the different switch locations, etc. Just as being different. No big deal. The 9303 has many super positive features that I find very attractive. First, let me say I've been heavily influenced by the Airtronics way of doing things, as I have owned a Vision, and now a Stylus for several years. I program the radio specifically to reduce pilot workload. Less things to think of and less things to remember. This has lead me to use the flight-mode switch to control almost all settings. The XP9303 also shares this philosophy. Great! Just what I am looking for. Lots of free mixers too. Seems almost trivial to setup a wing with 6 servos on the TE. I have this one nagging issue about landing mode. I realize the 9303 can have the FLAP - ELEV mixing in all flight modes, so there is no safety issue (ala 8103). When I use crow for landing mode, I want several different mixes. Things like reverse diff, aileron - rudder, etc. As you may know, with the Vision and Stylus, landing mode is automatically engaged when the flap stick starts to be pulled down. This overrides any other flight mode in place at the time. Not so with the 9303. With the 9303, the pilot must remember to pull the flight mode switch to engage LAND mode. This is fine. But... when is a guy to pull that landing mode switch? If I pull landing mode at 1 or 2-minutes to go, then handling will quirky when I'm cruising around. If I forget to put it in landing mode at all, handling will suffer on final approach. Ideally, I think landing mode should engage precisely when I start to pull the flap stick. Not before, not later. There's that pesky Airtronics mentality. ;) To me, this is a serious pilot work load issue, ideally rememberin to pull the LAND switch just as I'm entering my final turn. I certainly do not need one more thing to remember to do during the last 30 seconds of flight. So, JR experts... how am I supposed to do things with this radio? Is a lobotomy required? I'm ready.

[RCSE] Pictures of Agate vaporization
I must say it was quite spectacular! The only one I could think of blaming, was my timer, the ex sparky Lowell Norenberg! Actually the fuse may one day fly again (smoke damage only), but all of the equipment was lost, as you might expect. On a brighter not, so to speak, I was given the fuse from the power line I knocked out as my trophy of the day, and all of my remaining flights in RES class with the Topaz were quite short patterns.
[RCSE] UPDATE!! CVRC RES Bent Wing Contest May 12
Thanks Larry .. Good Choice!
Re: [RCSE] Visalia Bent Wing contest... Got TOPAZ???
Just give them a chance to review it. I cant imagine on what grounds they would make a decision to remove RES planes from the RES class unless of course they change the class to RES classic which would then leave out lots of RES planes. I know that pilots like Art McNamee fly built up wings on an Addiction or Compulsion fuselage. How would that be allowed then? Hank Schorz
[RCSE] Topaz
I finished my Topaz and flew it this past weekend. Very impressive. Mine cam out at 36.2 oz and neede no nose weight. For skegs, I used a Tim McCann V skeg on the rear, and I made a nose skeg from G10 for the nose (although a friend used a Tim McCann nose skeg for his and it worked great). I hooked up the spoiler by putting an HS-85 below the wing on the outside, with the linkage up through the precut hole. The HS-85 jus barely fit, and an HS-81 might work better for this. I also removed the silicon hinge and replaced it with tape and also removed the spoiler control arm, drilled a new hole just over the rectangular precut hole, and replace the spoiler control arm with one made from brass with a longer moment. I then used a standard klevise with a very short z bend rod. One can get a full 90 degrees (although not needed) of easy travel with plenty of servo push. The Topaz flys very well and the wing looks a bit like the old Mirage with plenty of dihedral. It turns well and behaves. IWe all launched on a full 12 volt winch with no problems although pedaling. Good zoomies presented no problems, and there was no flexing on the way up. All in all I think its much like the highly touted AVA (I have one of these as well). It was pretty breezy on Sunday, and the Topaz handled the wind just fine with more penetration that you might expect for 36 ounces. Wing loading around 5.5 oz/sq ft. Hank Schorz

[RCSE] JR8103
I've been using an 8103 for about two years. I love the radio, but only after a slight modification. The standard way to get landing mode (crow) and camber, is to use the left vertical stick and a switch. Very bad idea since you have to remember to throw the switch when landing. I swapped that switch (which was on the front panel) with the timer switch (on the top left rear - where the launch/reflex should be), and replaced the timer switch with a nice push button that can easily be reached with my thumb. Lastly, I added a micro rotary switch to the left side near the top, and rerouted the wires from the right top pot, and assigned this to camber. It really seems natural to have those functions positioned that way (like the vision), and it's a real simple modification. I'd say that after that, the 8103 has more functionality that the Vision, and somewhat less than the Stylus. Hank Schorz RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
