I got two sets of Multiplex incidence meters. I like the simplicity and accuracy is enough for me. It aided me to get my pitcheron Shrike perfectly setup the first time around.
BTW, the meters were not very expensive and well worth it. No need for fancy stuff. Aloha to all on RCSE, Al Battad - AMA #506981 -----Original Message----- From: Paul Naton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 21, 2006 8:21 PM To: soaring@airage.com Subject: [RCSE] Incedence Meters Beware the cheap digital angle meter. The Hanger 9 unit has some problems - mainly erratic readings and low repeatability, which is what you need. There are some threads on RC Groups about these problems. However, the Aero Perfect device may not be on the market much longer. The small company who makes it has had some big increases in part costs lately thus the higher price. This unit was designed for the high end Pattern/3-D market initially but I saw potential for the glider world and got a unit to use in the DVD. As with any product, its marketing, marketing, marketing, and the Aero Perfect guys are engineers, and not promoters. Enough said! They were not selling enough units make money. I gave them some marketing advice and I think they want to try it out before they end production. If you bug them with e-mails, you might be able to get them to build you one, at a price, but this thing is mil spec and will last a lifetime. Sure got my planes digitally accurate! [EMAIL PROTECTED] The angle measuring unit is the expensive part, and I hope some sort of device can come on the market with the accuracy and repeatability of the aero perfect. Love the concept and the unit. Now if the price point can come down for the masses! Paul RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
