[RCSE] JR 9303 Software Version
I just purchased 2 JR 9303s, one new, one used. How do I tell what version of software is in them? It doesn't seem to tell on power up like I've seen on other mfgs units. I understand there was at least one upgrade from the early 9303s. Thanks, John in Denver
RE: [RCSE] JR 9303 Flap Programming Question
OK to set the Trailing edge in flight modes all you do is switch to the FM you want and push the little trimmers on the top face of the 9303 the direction you want the ailerons and flaps to go in that FM. These are the ones on either side of the JR logo. That's all there is to it. Once you switch back to Cruse mode the TE will return.

[RCSE] JR 9303 Set-Up Help
I just purchased a new JR 9303 Radio for sailplanes. Or should I say I got the sailplane manual. Anyway I was told by a friend he remembers seeing a quick or easy set-up guide for the radio online. I sure would like to see it if it's out there. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

[RCSE] JR 9303 rubber duckie antenna
A friend wants to buy a particular type rubber duckie antenna for his JR 9303. I bought one for mine but forgot who I bought it from. I know the antenna is sold for the Stylus transmitter. The antenna does not have a quick disconnect. You have to unscrew the antenna from the transmitter. I bought the base loaded antenna adaptor (Don't by the base loaded antenna. Horizon will sell the adaptor without the antenna) from Horizon and it screws into the radio after you take the back off of the transmitter. Once the adapter is in the transmitter, the rubber duckie screws into the transmitter and it is a perfect fit. Who sells this antenna now? Thanks !

[RCSE] JR 9303 reverse diff?
Trying to figure out if I want to keep my new 9303...there are some shortcomings, one of which is I don't see a way to program reverse differential when the flap stick reaches a certain point. I don't use 'landing mode' so it's not something that can be enabled with flight modes. Anyone figured out a way around this? Tom RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

RE: [RCSE] JR 9303
JR transmitters are positive shift. This is not the transmitter module, but it is in the encoder before the module. You can actually modify the JR transmitters by adding a phase shifter. I have done this for my 8303's. MD is mode 2 (the normal way we fly these days). -Original Message- From: S Meyer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 14, 2006 4:33 PM To: Soaring@airage.com Subject: [RCSE] JR 9303 Have a couple questions for the JR guys.

[RCSE] JR 9303 setup help
Hello, All, I have a JR 9303 with the standard 6 servo Glider setup with the JW 4 flight modes. That being said the landing mode is on the throtle stick and is always on. I wanted to see if there is a way to make the first 1/4 stick or so inactive so when moving the rudder I dont have the flaps move down a bit and no know it or always have to keep checking to see that the throtle stick is in the up most spot. Any help / pointers would be great. Thanks, John Fruge

[RCSE] JR 9303 question
For someone that does sailplanes and dlg, are there any advantages due to switch location on the heli version versus the airplane version of the 9303? This was the case with the 9C, so I thought I'd ask before investing. Any input on the different versions would be appreciated.

[RCSE] JR 9303 - Jojo lost his virginity
Ok I am not a virgin.. But in JR terms I think I am. All my model life I have been playing around with MPX Tx's (Though my first was a 2ch Sanwa). I have had Sprint, Combi 80 (still have this one as trainer), Royal, 2015, 3010, 3030, 4000 and currently own 2 EVO's THEN I was going to the Nats and needed 72mhz (we have 35mhz here in Norway) so I spent some bucks on a used crystal EVO and got GREAT service from Polk that sent me a synth Rx. But I realized I needed more Tx crystals and turned to a friend I met at the WC F3J in Canada. John Diniz at Horizon Hobby ( http://www.horizonhobby.com/ ) proposed that I should try the JR 9303 and would send me all I needed. Wow! Now I could check out what JR feels is the best. And since I know some of the best have used it I felt confident that I might have a good thing going. You see - there is one thing I dont compromise on. I do not come to a competition unprepared. Since I cant use 72mhz on a regular basis here in Norway I will have to return the stuff but if I feel the 9303 has an advantage over my EVO I might do the switch. We will see... Anyhow it seems that JR really takes us sailplane guys serious and do step up for us when needed. So over to the shiny case I got in the mail today. It took only 7 days shipping to Norway so I started fidling with the switches and put it on charge while I surfed thru the airplane manual (seems I have the "A/S" version. airplane/sailplane). After 1/2 hour and some dinner I had to start fidling with the on/off switch also so I fidled more and took out a sailplane from the cellar... I took the worst one out there. At WC the South African team had got new Graupner MX-22's (same case as 9303) and strugled with programming. I bought one of the planes (Shongololo a copy of the Swedish Racemachine) they brought and discovered that it was NOT properly set up. So here I have a model with servo horn in all strange directions and a new radio that I have been fidling with for just 20-30min. Well to make a long story short the model is up and running and the timer says I did it before the radio had been on for 2 hours. I now have all the setup I need for F3J with 3 flight phases, camber control on the slider and a countdown timer on the training button. Even the name on the model is correct ;-O I have a qualifying competition this weekend so I dont think I will dare to use it this soon - but hey It sure does work and also: It seems to do what I need both for sailplane competition and I can fly my electric planes. Only thing I need to work out is how to use that training button to start my electric sailplane motors... Dont expect me to read ALL the messages on this list if you have any comments. But as always I try to keep up and enjoy the reading ;-) Hilsen (Regards) Jojowww.grini.no
[RCSE] JR-9303 musings
A week or so ago, I post the email (below) regarding the JR-9303 and got almost no response, so I thought that I might try again. Specifically, is there a way to implement reverse differential in landing mode? One of the responses that I did receive, said something to the effect, "if you need to turn that much on final and you don't know how to use the rudder, landing may be the least of your problem...". I really appreciate critical humor and have been known to practice it a bunch myself, but as I said, the plane is a 60" with no flaps, using spoilerons for glide path control, and the v-tail only supports pitch (one servo driving both surfaces). Further, I also mentioned that the pilot is new to gliders, so I would really like to provide him with sufficient control when landing. Thanks! Hi All, Although I'm a very BIG Airtronics Stylus fan, I have also been flying JR since the X-347's debut. Along the way, I purchased the X-388, then a couple of 8103s. I have used my JR radios primarily for handlaunch because they are lighter and have longer run-times than the Stylus for the same sized battery. Consequently, I came up with the modification for the 388/8103 (http://www.silentflyer.org/articles/8103-launch-switch.html) or (http://www.hoopesdesigns.com/) because of their lack of "free-form" switch assignments as found on the Stylus. The JR radios (10X excluded since I've never bought or owned one) have never measured up to the capabilities of the Stylus or the Vision for multi-servo wings, in my estimation. One of my biggest complaints was that the JR radios lacked the side sliders. Instead, two functions (landing and camber) were placed on the flap stick resulting in potential pilot "overload" by requiring the correct position of the Butterfly switch for the appropriate flight mode. I have switched from the Stylus with the Advanced Helicopter card to the 8103 for electric helis because "I" think that the 8103 has superior pitch and throttle curve mixing and its software has a nicer "feel" than the Stylus. With all of that said, I was anxious to get my hands on a 9303 to see if it really measured up to the Stylus, as some have stated. A local heli pilot, new to gliders, asked me to setup his 60" moldie with his new 9303. I have a mantra that I constantly share with the engineers in my company that "if you have to crack the manual to figure out to power-up the product, it is too complicated". I applied the same test to the 9303 and in a couple of minutes, I was boatin' around without too much difficulty. I spent about an hour setting up the plane so that it had speed, cruise, thermal (aka reflex, normal, camber) flight modes and spoilerons for glide path control with elevator compensation. Certainly, not very complicated. I couldn't see an easy way to add reverse differential when the spoilerons were deployed so I uploaded all of the support documents from Horizon's site. Still no solution. Along the way, I read through Joe Wurts' setup recommendations and was surprised to see him suggesting that one cut and swap the leads on the D/R switch to enable it for Launch mode. A short time later, I found Hank Shorz's thoroughly documented modification information, much of which involved a lot of cutting, swapping and soldering. This doesn't scare me, but I was left thinking of the "average guy" being told to hack up his new $600 radio. Although I spent most of the hour learning and understanding the changes and new additions, this same task would have taken me 10 minutes with the Stylus and I would have had reverse differential on the spoilerons, with no compromises. Why would JR overlook "free form" switch assignments? The Graupner MX-22 has got them (same radio, different software). Why aren't the mixers symmetrical in function? They never have been on JR, for example Mixer "A" or #1 is not the same as Mixer "C" or #3. Further, if a "null" function were added and allowed to be in the Master selection of the mixer, one could easily support presets in every mixer. For this plane's setup, I used FMOD, but didn't get a clear picture whether this would cause other problems. So what do I think? JR has great quality, nice gimbals, desperately needs "free form" switch assignments, match the documentation's nomenclature to the radio's nomenclature, convince Airtronics to squeeze their 92185 PCM receiver to the same size as JR's R770...yea like that'll ever happen ;-) , stick with the nice click wheel, and knock the "sharp edges" off from the software. I didn't get a chance to look at the 9303's heli software and I would have liked to spend more time with the radio than I did. Also, it would be nice to know whether the radio's program memory can be re-flashed through the DSC port or some internal connection for future updating, thus alleviating a potential buyer's concern of being "stuck" with older or buggy software.

RE: [RCSE] JR 9303 sailplane programming
There are several things in the manual that are not clear, omitted, and poorly laid out for the way my mind works. The radio is actually simpler to operate than the manual indicates. They take you through each step of each entire process for every programming feature and it sounds more complex than it is. I wrote a how to with an 8 servo wing electric sailplane, and point out several ways (of many) to accomplish this. Full trailing edge camber and reflex can be done with simple trim settings with switches right on top of the radio, and be assigned to a three position switch.. If you want to have more complex arrangements you can utilize flight modes. http://www.scalesoaring.net/tips.htm JD Endless Mountain Models http://www.scalesoaring.com email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > -Original Message- > From: Bill Malvey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Saturday, February 19, 2005 8:39 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; rc Soaring Exchange > Subject: Re: [RCSE] JR 9303 sailplane programming > > On 2/19/05 17:26 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > > Has anybody written a full 'How to program' instruction guide for > > programming the new JR 9303 for sailplanes?

> I wonder if this is the same for the JR 9303? No, it is not. The 930-3 has a non-volatile memory in it. No battery required. ~~~ Bill Malvey RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] JR 9303
Would any owner of the new JR 9303 answer my question? I have a Graupner/JR MX22 radio, same physical form as the 9303 but with different software, I think. In the instruction book, there is a mention of a Lithium battery that keep the memory in the tx "alive". The instruction said that lithium battery needs to be replaced very few years or so, there will be an indication on the screen telling you it needed replacement. BUT the instruction also mention tx has to be sent to the service department to have the battery replaced. It did not mention that it is possible to be done by the user. I wonder if this is the same for the JR 9303? Brian -- Brian Chan an Electric Airplane [EMAIL PROTECTED] RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

I put my spoilers on the throttle channel. Then just go into the travel adjust menu and adjust the total travel in each direction. I used a free mix to mix elevator to spoilers (throttle). See page S49 for the travel adjust info. I plugged the rudder into the aileron channel on the 770 (channel #2). Took me about 10 minutes total from the time I plugged in the RX. BTW - the new JR 770 RX is very nice. Very compact ~~~ Bill Malvey RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] JR 9303 Question
I am setting up my AVA with the 9303 and a Hitech 555 rx. Can't get the spoiler travel to anything less than full travel. Any suggestions. Thanks in advance Dave Corven.
[RCSE] JR 9303 Redeux
The flourish of 9303 posts has diminished. Here is one specific example of it's versatility for programming sailplanes It opens up possibilities heretofore unavailable in any radio regardless of price, let alone at a $600.00 price point. I just programmed the LET Sperber 4.5 meter electric with an 8 servo wing. Flaps, inner ailerons, outer ailerons, top spoilers. In this case the outer two ailerons are Y corded together, but if they were not, these could easily be mixed to an aileron or rudder channel, and there would be two mix values available plus the availability of flight modes to select various trim settings in each of these two mix values. If this were a scale ship, to accommodate the use of a retract and tow release plus maybe a brake, you could easily use matchboxes for increased flexibility or a channel expander for switched functions (up to four on a channel). A six servo wing with spoilers sharing a channel would be even simpler. Example: In the Sperber I assigned motor control to the BUTF lever (throttle stick), proportional spoilers to the right slider channel, and then using flight modes I actually was able to assign full spoiler deployment to the landing mode with full flaps. This was set on a second mix switch so it could be turned off and on. The end result was that you could either have independent proportional spoiler control, Flaps and full spoilers on a landing switch, or flaps alone with proportional spoilers for glide path control. All this plus elevator comp in all modes, plus a flap trimmer on the right slider. Wow! By the way, the throttle hold feature is like getting an extra channel. Using flight modes you can program the electric motor to run off a switch or proportional stick/lever and have it become inactive (throttle hold) when in a chosen flight mode. The assigned stick or lever can then have another function entirely such as flap or spoiler control. I am sure there are many other undiscovered possibilities. Also with the addition of two matchboxes on say, two of six aileron flap channels, a whole new range of possibilities become available. Big advantage: Lightning fast programming via the spin a click "cricket" wheel. One finger does it all.
