David,
Are you using it with Windows Vista? I looked at the manual and it indicated
it would work with Windows 2000 or XP.

I actually tried the XPS system in my 2.4 friendly Supra and had some problems.
The receiver was placed between the ballast tube and servos. It was going into
failsafe at about 100 yards or a little more when I was going away. Maybe I
should have tried putting the receiver in the nose.

Gordy, you have a good point. The reason I posted on RCGroups is because I
could attach the pictures. Here, for everyone else, is the data I collected
today.

I just posted some actual data logger results for my Spektrum installation
in a carbon Pike Perfect. I had 4 flights today (3 with the data logger)
with no issues visible from the ground. It is not exactly where I want it
yet but it is close. The thread talks about what I will do next.

I flew the whole contest with a Supra that had a 2.4 friendly fuselage with
a 9303 2.4 GHZ and 9 CH receiver. Never had any kind of problem and, like
Gordy, never had to wait for someone to bring back the pin. It was
fantastic. I had tried an XPS system with this configuration previously but

I got a 2.4 friendly fuse from Barry. I have the original in very good
condition (never crashed). The pod is yellow and the fin is blue. The push
rods are internal to the boom and have very low resistance. The parts for a
new fuse cost about $380. I will sell this one in Phoenix for $330.

The 700 and the 549 are spoken for. I still have the 2 perfectly good JR
610M (it should have been 610M instead of 600M in the first post). These are
very small, light full range receivers. Thanks.

Like SmokinJoe I am moving over to 2.4 GHz. I have 4 JR receivers so far
that I have taken out of gliders, electric gliders, or other electrics.
- 1 - JR 700 7 CH $40
- 2 - JR 600M 6 CH $30
- 1 - JR NER-549X 9 CH $45
Among the 4 receivers I have 4 crystals: 2 - CH20, 1 - CH40, 1 - CH55. First
I tried to respond to Jack Iafret's posting but got bounced by the system so
I am posting this separately. I agree with Jack that the Profi has very
powerful programming. However, I traded mine for 2 - 12 Ch Evos because, for
me, the programming is even easier, although with a few less options (mos

I mounted 94761 servos on the ailerons of
my Supra up against the spar with the lugs removed and glued them in. There
might have been the slightest bulge in the cover, but you cannot see it now. On

I have a new 195-Opto controller that I was going to use with the same motor
