[RCSE] Catapulting a 3 m

[John Roe]

I use a catapult-like set-up for my 3M planes.
It consists of 50' of red hobby-lobby 1/2" rubber-
DOUBLED and a 25' piece of 200# test monofiliment.
Some of you might have seen me using this at Phoenix.

Subject: [RCSE] Servo wiring question


Is the signal line coming from a receiver and going to a servo usually 
the
same between different manufactures?  For example, can I take a servo 
with a
Futaba connector, clip the connector, and attach an "old" style 
Airtronics
connector?  Of course, I realize that I have to get the ground, 
battery, and
signal pins in the right place.  In other words, I understand that the 
PPM
signal polarity is different for various manufactures but is this 
polarity
difference carried all the way to the servos?

[RCSE] Zagi Alternate Covering

[wmaloney]

I have recently purchased a Zagi which happened to come with Orange 
colored covering tape.  Does anyone know of an alternate source for 
tape which would have a wide variety of colors, possibly even 
fluorescent to replace the original.

Thanks,
