Re: [RCSE] Help - 2A2FER(V-tail) Infinity 660

I think that the new JR Matchbox will fix you right up. End point adjust and servo reversing plus some other features. Pricey, but better than having to cough up money for another TX. Available from Horizon Hobbies and other distributors for $69, if I recall correctly. Maxx Products has a wye a

Re: [RCSE] RES plane ?

If you look at the Laser Arts Majestic, you should know of some Mark Drela designed mods to the Majestic that are supposed to greatly improve thermal turning, reduce chance of tip stalls and improve high speed L/D. They are found in the files section of the Yahoo! Groups group Allegro-Lite. If

[RCSE] E-Zagi OR Wedgie?

I'm considering getting either an E-Zagi or a Wedgie. Any opinions on either? BTW, I like planes that have low speed authority. I like to do stupid maneuvers close in and at the lowest possible speeds. In other words, top speed isn't important. Quick recovery is. So, which one do I want? Bill Sw

[RCSE] She's a beauty!

RE: [RCSE] Help - 2A2FER(V-tail) Infinity 660

Been there - done that. NO - you CAN'T program it for flaps on 2 channels - read the manual! What you can do is get a servo reverser for the other flap and a Y-connector. Another thing you can't do - Have BOTH launch flaps and landing without using an alternate model and now HALF of your model m

[RCSE] Help - 2A2FER(V-tail) Infinity 660

I can't find a way to activate the second flap! I can gang them together on the same channel but then I have to mount one of them asymmetrically (i.e. facing the same way). I really don't want to hack an larger hole in the wing to do this. Come on guys, somebody must have figured this out. Phil

On second thoughts (while looking at the Majestic from Laserarts), I might consider others then ARF also ... :-). I guess that broadens the choice a bit too. Thanks, Stefan. - Original Message - From: "Stefan Smets" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2

[RCSE] RES plane ?

I'm sure the question has been asked before, but when looking in the archives with the search-term "RES", there are a few more hits then I'm ablte to handle, to say the least ... So, I'm looking for a RES-plane for next year, ARF (not much time to build), max. 3 meter span but over 100". Since I
