Not DataSafe2. This is PC Data Transfer. Part # JRPA310 through Horizon.
This is a brand new system for saving, manipulating and exchanging data
via your computer with the ability to send
the data in an e-mail. So far it's worked flawlessly. It's version 0.1
so that tells you they may be
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'm flying the Lightspeed and the Vandal on the FASST system. I have my

Hey Guys,
Looks like I have misplaced my lucky Seiko stopwatch - name scratched in
the back is Phil Lontz. I stole it fair and square from the Bozo
humself, Phil Lontz, and it has been around the world with me many
times. Last time I saw it was Sat. in Denver.
If anyone finds it in their bag,
Darwin, I think your answer lies in the unique qualities and general low
numbers of the soaring communities.
INMHO I think the lack of Soaring adoption into 2.4 occurs for a few
reasons that follow but are not limited to:
The standard TX for many soaring enthusiasts is the Sanwa / Airtronics

While I am listed on Ch 17, I had Ron switch me to 2.4. I will be
flying it in my old Encore variant, and my New Spider DLG.
My Original Fuselages are all Kevlar.

Do you have problem with the heat in AZ? The
Futaba rxs have problem with temp above 150°F.
The rx shuts down. There had been crashes in
major events link to rx temperature problems.

If Futaba's system is THE 2.4 system to have why isn't there support for the
other brands? I think JR / Spektrum / Horizon have done a good job in
nudging people to their equipment by offering other brand support. I can
point you towards many happy former futaba fliers that converted to the 2.4
I thought I'd ask this here since the 14MZ is brought up. I've been trying
to work with Futaba service on this issue for a while now and have not heard
anything back. I have 2 of the 14MZ's. The first one I got had the touch
screen problem where it would not recognize at a normal pressure touch.
I'm a little biased being on Team Futaba. Despite the brand loyalty, I've
looked at all of them and find the Futaba 2.4 receivers the most practical for
the soaring application.
Darwin,
I can't fault you for being a little biased being a team flyer and all. But
in all fairness it is
Larry you make a lot of reasonable points as always. I am going to give
Sanwa the time they requested to produce the first stage of the Stylus
replacement (the 2.4 module) and having failed that will be looking at JR. I

You know I love both you guys even though you wear those Orange shirts, and
I have to concede that it is possible to do more with 14 than 12. I want to
point out that the discussion was 2.4 and sailplanes, and I still feel IMHO
that JR offers more flexibility and better
I remember seeing the guys with the orange shirts at our (SC)2 contest

Bill and Darwin,
Good question. Lots of answers.
I'm flying the same sailplane I've been flying for the last 10 years.
(Usually followed by good, go to 2.4. Less chance of a conflict for me).
I have 25 sailplanes. How many RX do I need to replace?
I'm waiting for them to work out all the problems.
Does anybody have two Greening mounts for the JR 241 servos? Craig
isn't answering his email and I need to finish a plane. I don't want to
glue the servos in.
Thanks,
