Re: [RCSE] Vision 3.0 Questions.

Older Visions had a flaw with the strap that holds the pot's output shaft to the radio. This strap often cracked causing the shaft to rotate and cause the problem you are experiencing. The fix is quite simple; just reinforce the strap and tighten it all back down after you re-center the pot

[RCSE] Listserve down time

Tomorrow evening (12th December) from around 5:30 PM Eastern there will be some interruption to all Listserves operated by Airage until around midnight. This is due to an upgrade to our network and internet connection. We will try to keep the down time to a minimum. Apologies for the

[RCSE] HS50 amp draw

OK, at Jon's behest, I have done a more thorough test. For 2 HS50 servos and a Hitec 555 rx, current measured at idle: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] 30.0ma@6v This slight reduction in drain at lower voltage actually coincides with what Don Stackhouse mentioned to me. The reciever alone

RE: [RCSE] Antares Sailplane; Darn You SEM

EMS in Germany markets 1/5 to 1/3 size up and go sailplane electric system. The engineering is done for such a system. I don't know if he will sell it separatly from his plane packages or not. See the scale soaring page for a link to EMS on the index page, and a hot link to the Antares site.

Re: [RCSE] HLG setup

Stefan, I guess you could have that much down throw, but I don't see the point. On my HLG I have equal throws. I have the travel volume maxed out (or at least close) but to handle the extreme control I use 100% exponential with my computer radio. I get the fine, soft feel of small throws

RE: [RCSE] Help with AutoCad

I never tried it, I don't know for sure if acad13 can accept bmp files, but I would think so because it can do rendering. It can accept dxf files. Unfortunately I lent my manuals out and drafting is closed right now. I'll see what I can find, but there are some Acad heavyweights out there on the

[RCSE] Re:AutoCad help

Thanks for all the help and advice. I have to reveiw the processdures and try them. I have two local fliers who have offered to walk me through the proceedure and I will be contacting them as well. If I need any further help i will post to the list(s) again. If I get this to work I will post a

[RCSE] Contests and LSF Levels

Gents, To all those that either don't see the point of having competition goals as part of LSF, or don't think they should have to compete and SUCCEED in competition as part of the LSF program, I have something to say. Don't get involved in LSF in the first place if you aren't willing to play

RE: [RCSE] Contests and LSF Levels

We are not saying that we expect it to be easy. By all means make it harder. I am sure that the Level 5's would like another challenge (just ask Mal Pring who is doing it all again)! It can be made harder without the need for contests. Perhapes we need to leave the existing levels alone and add

Re: [RCSE] Antares Sailplane; Darn You SEM

Guys, I've been looking for an answer to this problem for a while as well. I am presently flying a 5 meter Duo Discus planformed electric on 16 cells. Climbs well, weighs about 10 pounds. I'm getting about 1000 watts out of the Aveox system. That's all you can safely pull for any period of time

[RCSE] Servo Identity Puzzle

OK, guys.last week there was a question about using different servos with different receivers, and what wiring adjustments must be made. My question is along the same lines but more of a puzzle. I was given a scale Grunau Baby with servos already installed in the wings for ailerons and

[RCSE] Servo-savers

I'm putting together a combat foamie and wanted to use servo savers. I want to try micro servos in the wings, but am not sure if the Kimbrough servo savers will fit on Hitec micros (hs-80/81/85 size). Should I just go with full size gear and servo savers instead? Anyone had any experience

RE: [RCSE] Original Crystal Question

I think the answer here is that JR (probably from complaints) believes their (JR) receivers on channels 11 - 14 are 'at risk' from FM channel 56 - 60 Txs (any make). Thus they have stopped supplying the Rx crystals - channels 11 - 14. Question: Do they sell TX modules for channels 11 - 14?

[RCSE] CONTESTS and LSF LEVELS

Paul Ferguson posted to Jim Thomas in regards to 'Contests and LSF Levels,' "Perhaps we need to leave the existing levels alone and add parallel 'non-contest' levels with more challenging tasks." SOUNDS LIKE!! LSF AWARDS with a nasty " * " attached to me :-) !! Maybe, Paul, as a
