Re: [RCSE] 9303 question
Using the throttle stick for both camber and launch is something you don't have to do. I never ever used it that way. I always programmed a switch to provide launch preset, throttle stick was always for landing with same mix in either switch position, and I use a combination of camber presets and elevator to camber mixing to keep the airfoil working best for the conditions and elevator input. marta zavala wrote: That JR landing mode switch set up can be dangerous.

When I get the Evo going will use the left stick for landing flap and the slider for camber change. Needless to say I am not a big fan of the JR landing/flight mode switch.

RE: [RCSE] 9303 question
Barry,
I just programmed my Tragi into the 9303 this morning. WOW super easy, took about 1.5
hours, 2 minutes of which was moving the servo leads. (Had to break for a cup of
coffee after that chore 8^) The flight modes control things like throws, expo, rudder
coupling, differential and the like. You can setup butterfly to be on all the time, as
is in the basic setup instruction that John Adams wrote. So no matter what switches
you have thrown the throttle stick will give you landing crow all the time.
Did a range check and a few trim flights and I am loving it. Flying off the zip start
was able to hook a low thermal to get a 25 min flight. What is also cool on the radio
are the dual timers. I setup a 10 min countdown watch and also a stop watch and
program them to start with the momentary/timer button just above the rudder/throttle
stick. Makes it very easy to start when you come off the line. Also on the countdown
timer it gives 3 beeps at 30 seconds, 2 beeps at 20 and a beep per secound from 10 to
0, great for landing practice. Also the tones change in pitch as it counts down.
It was nice to finally get my radio into a plane and acually fly it instead of playing
around with it at work. We should have the radios here in a week or so and then they
have to go through QA before being released for shipment, So you should be seeing them
at you dealer in 2-3 weeks max.
Regards,
John

I noticed when looking at the 9303 manual download (thanks Jon), that
the stock set-up has a "landing mode".
Does this mean you have to pull a switch to have the left stick operate
the flaps fully and not camber as in some other JR radios?
