you set the servos in fail safe mode, the ship is still gonna go in.
Huh? I thought PCM meant just that, Pretty

remember we have had PCM receivers in the line for 20 plus years. They did
not go bad overnight just IPD is better.

From a practial point of view, if you have a molded model that only does
45 degrees, you probably won't get 90 degrees out of it. Shoot for 75
degrees. That is far enough for things to start to be effective.
You want to get over 70.
If you want to save the nice wipers, the best way is to slice
Here we go again
The 2M Super V seems to be the standard of
comparison as far as launch.
This is again a VERY subjective viewpoint! Ever see Joe W. launch his Maple Leaf
Image? Ever travel to Europe and see some of the Euro molded or foam core/bagged 2
meters launch and fly? I hate to
How is IPD better? Can you have two Tx's on the same freq. and
not have problems?

Please let me know your source on this as this is completely at odds with
everything credible I have ever seen on PCM.
Even when the PCM is in failsafe, as soon as one good packet comes through
the servos are sent the good data. There is no waiting, no 'lockout'.
What looks like lockout is just
The misunderstanding in in the meaning of "fail safe."
Fail safe does not mean no crash, it doesn't mean that everything
will be OK, all it means is that in the event of loss of signal the
system can be programmed to go to a predetermined position.
How safe is the predetermined position?
That
While I agree that the trims don't mix this is not an insurmountable
problem. If the model is straight then the amount of trim required will
be very small so just one aileron moving will certainly make the model
flyable until landing. Once landed measure the amount of deflection of
the one
The problem again here is that the Super 7 won't slave the trim of the other channel
to the aileron trim. The surfaces will
function correctly as ailerons, but when you move the aileron trim, only one surface
(the one plugged into channel 1) will move.
