I fly indoors with a couple of really hot heli guys. Guess what, the best of them and I think he is really good tells me there maybe a tad difference but he is not really sure, at any rate it will not matter for a newbe heli guy like me. BTW, really good to me is rolling circles one foot off of

I understand that some of you will have skepticism in regard to the increase in performance from the 2.4 Spread Spektrum Systems. The first time that I flew a my 9303X 2.4 system in a glider I got the feeling I was better connected to the glider. I did some high speed dives and pulled the

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? On Fri, Mar 7, 2008 at

A far cheaper way to increase 'response' would have been to get digital servos. and a 5-cell RX battery pack. RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News. Send subscribe and unsubscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please note that subscribe and unsubscribe messages must be

The lag argument is well...goofy. I have heard the Heli guys say they notice a difference, which actually makes some sense. The Heli is far more susceptible to lag than perhaps any other radio controlled device. I have also heard the IMAC guys say they notice a difference. Maybe they do...but

I will add this and leave it alone. My flying went from constant correcting of over correcting to having the plane respond the way I wanted it. And nothing, not practice, faster servos, expo, dual rates, speed, etc... improved the 'smoothness' of my flying like the spektrum. If you guys don't
