Jared, I don't know if you figured it out, but I don't want to buy, a charger, I'm selling one. I don't know what's up with you people, hijacking a for sale thread and saying to go somewhere else and buy it cheaper. Would you stand in front of Costco with a sign and tell people to shop at Wal Mart for something you could buy cheaper there? I think your convoluted ethics stink!

[RCSE] Foamies versus Glass Slippers
What's the world coming to? POS foam almost wiping out my Visalia hero, if one comes through the windshield; you'll have to resort to using your cape. With all the air traffic, somebody's going to have to paint white lines up there. Back in my day it was just Godzilla we had to worry about, smashing' planes and before that it was King Kong doing the same damn thing. I can even remember way, way, back the time a Rodent almost knocked down the Golden Gate Bridge. Ahhh, things gotta get better. Fly safe Big D, you're the only one we got.

Re: [RCSE] RE: Airtronics new digital wing servo
John, In the past 15 years I've flow all the in servos. It used to be Air. 141's or JR 341's for ailerons Futaba 3002's for flaps, and various servo's for rudder and stabs. In the latter years when the new generation of servos came to the fore and Mann Tau started to import the blue Volt's, our eyes were opened to the new upgraded servo. Then Carlton brought in the red servos. JR started to improve the market with the great Didgal 368 with fantastic centering. Each time people flocked to the improvement. Now Airtronics has again raised the bar. and I say Lead on and they have never given me one servo, ( all the rest of the servo companies haven't either) I don't fly well enough to warrant a promo. Now my thoughts on service.. VOLTZ I've owned about a dozen Voltzs over the years, and I sent back seven or eight for repair ( I have another one for you Gordy, I'll bring it to Visalia) so I felt I was field testing them for Michael. JR flown many, many JR's, I sent some 341's back to Horizon after I called and they said they would repair as needed and a couple of weeks latter they arrived back on my doorstep with a note from Horizon stating they were not repairable. With no explanation, Multiplex Never used Airtronics Flown hundreds, Best service by far over the last fifteen years. I still own four Vision radio's, (They work for me and I'm too old to change radio's in mid flight) the service is prompt and personal. You can talk to service and Jack the Guru Tetchy for probably the last twenty years or more for any software program-related problem. But if they, can't fix servo or radio, their policy is to send you a new replacement for half the original price if the item is over the warranty period. What a deal! and that's my 2 cents worth. And if I stop by the Airtronics booth at Visalia and they give me a hat, I'll proudly wear it! Is that the way to suck, D ? and if D gets a servo once in a while, he's no threat to you, cause he can't see any more and he's still gonna go to hell anyway,, right BoZo You only get the servo you deserve Ron Widel RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] AMA the Nats. Radio Policy ?
This is a question to any contestants at the Nats. or attendee's I know the AMA's offical radio policy is, that no non factory post radio modifications are allowed. I know many modifications take place and seem to go un noticed ie. battery MAH's, Switch modifications, computer prom changes to add more model memory. But what I'm really interested in is the change you can really see and that is the deletion of the factory whip antenna and the replacement of the Rubber Duck type of antenna. Well back to the question, do any of you there see any ducky type antennas and AMA just turns a bind eye? Thanks for any info, Ron Widel RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] Davenport ISR
I just got back from the ISR MOM slope races and it was awesome. Wind averaged well over 30 mph and gusting to over 40 mph The lap speed were up near record times. The caliber of pilots, the best, ( th who's who of slope racing but the air was very turbulent and I've never seen more mid-airs and crashes at one event (I lost count after 8)and I left about half way through. The landing also were extra challenging as the rotors were terrible. A sight I'll remember was Walter Lynch body surfing in the Pacific Ocean to recover his errant sailplane. The sun was out, the wind was howling and Davenport was the place to be this Saturday. With all the carnage I never heard one word of complaint or whining. it was slope racing in all it's glory.

See if you can pass the test! Now, scroll down (but not too fast, you might miss something.) Think of a number from 1 to 10 Multiply that number by 9 If the number is a 2-digit number, add the digits together Now subtract 5 Determine which letter in the alphabet corresponds to the number you ended up with (example: 1=a, 2=b, 3=c, etc.) Think of a country that starts with that letter. Remember the last letter of the name of that country. Think of the name of an animal that starts with that letter. Remember the last letter in the name of that animal. Think of the name of a fruit that starts with that letter. Are you thinking of a Kangaroo in Denmark eating an Orange? I think you might have not won a AVA, let me think about it!

Some time later in a conversation with long time Airtronics technicitian Jack Albrect,he mentioned than a gentelman was still installing an upgrade PROM in the older Vision's. Regards, Ron Widel So here's that information if anyone needs an upgrade in the future. If you can, remove the battery, antenna and RF module to save shipping costs. Price is $80 plus $10 S/H/I.

[RCSE] Airtronics Vision/Stylus the #92778 receiver, Finally Solved!
Hi Again, Well I finally have the non working, new Slimline 7/8 channel Airtonics #92778 receicver, working, here's the secret! Turn all your plugs upside down. Yes, turn all your plugs over and even the battery plug. Airtronics say's this is the only receiver in their line with this unique feature. My guess is that the plastic molder reversed the process and put the teenie chamfer on the top of the servo plug slot, instead of the lower portions. Of course the colors are reversed from left to right and from right to left. I think a small sip of paper highlighting this process with the receiver would forwarn people to this one change to one receiver in the entire Airtronisc line. Also a note on this change and or picture on (Airtronics.net) web site near the Z-connector page, om this change would be very helpful. If you don't understand what I tried say about the upside down part, please contact Airtronics at (714)978-1895 and maybe they can expain it better.

[RCSE] Airtronics Vision and the #92778 receiver Solution!
Hi Again, The solution at this time, is still no solution! First let me say, I have four Vision Radios and will probably always fly the Airtronics Vision radio. Well I have tried every combination of mix and match and still no results. A few weeks ago I purchased the 778 receiver and crystal but couldn't get it to work, so I sent it back Airtronics, and with Skip Millers help a brand new receiver and crystal was on my front porch, 2nd day air (Skip, yer da man), anyway, same thing again, I couldn't get any response from the servo's, not one twitch, dead! So, I pulled out my friends Stylus, and again no luck, not a movement, then I pulled a new 92186z out of the box and the Stylus made that work fine. Conclusion? none! Thank everyone who took the time to write me and try to help solve my problem, I tried every suggestion even if I may have tried it before, because, you never know.

[RCSE] Airtronics Vision and the #92778 receiver Help!
To all the helpful responders, The Vision is set on PPM as the 92778 is a FM receiver. I've tried it on both Airtroncs and Futaba shifts, on both 7 and 8 channels, with no response at all. At this point I've tried everthing that all the responder's have suggested, to no avail. I hope it's a simple solution and not a software or hardware problem.
