Hi Jim, The coupler I assume is a male and female plug that your antenna solders to. If the connection is good the receiver won't know the connector is there. Thermals, Art [Original Message] From: Jim Prouty [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 9/15/2004 12:14:44 PM Subject:

Looks like Ivan is coming to see me. Power co. says power may be out 3 weeks! Wonder how many RCSE messages I'll have when it comes back on. If the eye makes it to my house I'm going to try flying hand launch in it! Wish I'd bought a kit to build. Richard Mertins Milton,FL

Seems to me that this battery is delivering more than rated energy. It should be fine. I wouldn't hesitate to use it. Ed Jett - Original Message - From: Stefan Smets [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 14, 2004 1:18 PM Subject: [RCSE] Battery life ? Hi

I put a Dean's whip antenna on my Zagi Fixx and have been flying it higher and further out on every outing. So far no apparent range problems (and it does look sort of cool). Has anyone pushed this antenna to its limits and what were they? Jim Deck RCSE-List facilities provided by

Jim: One solution is a tape on tow hook. No, this is not a joke. I've been flying 3 meter planes with the tow hooks just taped on with strapping tape. I've never had one pull off. I make up a base out of fairly sturdy shim brass that is curved to fit the bottom of the fuse. It's about

Okay, I'm trying real hard not to laugh. That would look very kludgey on a $2,000 plane. I have taped on a tow hooks for my HLG and Flying wings, but only so I can remove them. Would never consider it for an unlimited ship. You know there will be up to (and possibly more than) 200 lbs of
