[RCSE] Evo vs 9303
I'm seriously considering either an Evo or a 9303 - opinions? I like the idea of the variable 'digi' mixers on the evo, and also like the idea of any function to any channel. The synth/scanner function would be awesome, as would the battery management features. On the down side, I have a feeling that the programming it is a royal pain - pun intended. Mixers being global sounds like a bummer, too. The 9303 seems to have terrific programming, but lacks all these other things. Given that the 9's cost about the same - which is ultimately BETTER Matt

Not sure which is better, but the EVO is truly pretty easy, very logical to program. I am much more comfortable with it that I ever was with any JR/Asian radio programming.

I've also been looking at getting an evo. I'm not sure that the Global mixer's are as big an issue as the JR FUD department (Fear Uncertainty Doubt - a technique perfected to an artform by microsoft) seem keen to portray. As I understand it the global mixers are frameworks for establishing how inputs and outputs are mixed with each other - so things like v-tail, crow, camber control would be set up as a global mixers. The actual percentages and values assigned to each component of the mix are specific to each model. The Royal Evo tutorial explains the global mixers in detail and is definitely worth reading if your thinking about the EVO. http://www.multiplexusa.com/Support/manuals/radio/ROYALevo%20TUT.PDF cheers Paul At 4:54 PM -0400 14/4/05, Lydon, Matthew (NBC Universal) wrote: Mixers being global sounds like a bummer, too.

Given that the 9's cost about the same - which is ultimately BETTER Matt I have never had a JR transmitter that required programming because I gave up on them long before computer radios. I have owned Infinity, Futaba, and Hitec and never really understood the logic behind their programming. I currently fly Evo and find it much easier to program than the asian radios because I understand the logic behind Evo programming. I was never able to program any of the asian radios without a manual in front of me. With the Evo, I only need the manual to refresh my memory when trying something new. Another advantage of the Evo is the superior feel and balance. Only the Infinity approached the Evo feel and balance. Chuck Anderson RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
