Re: [RCSE] Spektrum - is it really glitch free

[Born2RC]

I am running mine on a electric helicopter, haven't gotten a glitch yet.  I was having major glitching issues, when I was using my JR radio on the same helicopter.    Specking it out is not an issue with Helicopters because of orientation problems.  But I was just curious to get your input ...   Thanks ...

At distances of up to 1500-2000 feet I have not observed any glitches.   The Spektrum receiver contains two separate receivers, each of which has its own antenna that is approximately three inches in length. Ideally, these antennae should be oriented 90-degrees to one-another. If one antenna extends lengthwise in the fuselage, the other should extend across the fuselage; most sailplanes do not have a fuselage three inches wide, which makes correct installation rather difficult. J   What I did was to run one antenna down the fuselage and shape the other so that in runs in a roughly circular path around the inside of the fuselage. This is not an ideal orientation, but it was the best I could do. I’ve only flown the plane three or four times and have not speced it out, but so far it appears to be working OK.   Regards, Bob Johnson Fond du Lac, WI   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 12, 2006 12:26 PM To: soaring@airage.com Subject: [RCSE] Spektrum - is it really glitch free   Hello   How has your experience been with Spektrum radios?  Is it truly glitch free ... when the ship is only a spec in the sky?   Thanks in advance ...
