To put a finer point on this, as 2.4 continues to capture the (sour) market
it opens the opportunity for continued infiltration of RF-based toys without
any policing. In other words, not only is this (lower) bandwidth
unattractive to anyone other than it's original intent, the controls that we

Probably a long time. But they're a governmental agency, so who
knows?
Our channels are too small for FM voice tra
As populations grow and expan into formerly rural areas, land suitable for
use as flying fields is becoming increasingly scarce. And having to keep
fields at least 3 miles apart to ensure no channel conflicts reduces the
possibilities even further. The biggest impact of 2.4 is that flying fields
I don't know what all the fuss is about 2.4 GHz and carbon fiber fuselages.

Well
Does anyone know Dan Stang of RTS Soaring Works. He is a builder in New Jersey
and I and others have been trying to get a hold of him for over a week. His
cell phone will not accept anymore messages. Any help would be appreciated.

Bubba does not have unlimited resources, nowhere close. Bubba choses to
expend some of the resources he has on toy planes. If Bubba did have
unlimited resources he would be arriving in Muncie in a small jet full
of toy planes and renting a nice convertable to fly XC with this year.

You guys can feel the difference from faster servos, servos with higher
resolution, see or sense the slightest bubble in lift, detect the slightest
change in the air, feel the air temp changes yet the fact that spektrum is
measurably faster is somehow lost on human senses?

Paul,
In the case of the Spread Spektrum systems you are absolutely correct. You
will also not be able to take advantage of the Global Unique Identifier that
the allows the dedicated 2.4 systems to recognize a dedicated binded model
setup. Larry

One area that makes this fuzzy is the 2.4Ghz add on module.
If the module plugs into the back of what was once a 72Mhz system it
will not gain you any
lag time advantage. It may actually increase the lag time.
As the 2.4Ghz module is reading the pulse stream from the 72Mhz tx
and then sending
So now that 2.4 Ghz is emerging in force; how long will we continue to have
FCC approved access to the 72MHz band?

The increase in responce is comparable to using fast servos. I can without
a doubt tell the difference. I fly planes with fast servos and rearward
C.G.s I also fly planes fast as well as slow.
But you do have to realize that ths latency is before the servo. So whether

I would expect a heli guy to be able to tell a difference.
But to be honest, I think it all boils down to a quote from one of my favorite
movies...Bull Durham.

I don't really care if all the claims for future function are true as long
as I have solid control.
They do have a offering for the Profi 4K

Pretty please. Anybody?

For those of you selling off your Stylus, or Styli (pl) due to 2.4,
Airtronics will have a 2.4 module and receiver very soon. I can't nail
them down to a date, as they're also working hard on our new 10 channel.
XPS also sells a module for the Stylus, and I have been using it in my
BumbleBee Supr
The big deal for me?
Because of the huge surge to go with 2.4. There is a lot of discontent towards
the old 72 MHz. And pilots are selling off the 72 stuff everywhere...
I am enjoying the low! Low! Prices on Stylus radio's and radio accessories!
I think it's all good! It's a win, win situation.
Well said David!
I totally agree with that!
What we do is so amazing. Most folks don't get it.
But I still wouldn't change what I'm using right now.
If I was to buy a radio it would be a Graupner MC 12 or 24(JR).
now, I would guess that could be 2.4.. I'd still have to see or hear of
better re
$229.95 for Airtronics RDS-8000, 8ch Tx, Rx and battery
charger combo.
