The new Fortress works after all.Sorry FMA ! !
As Steve suggested, I had the modulation shift wrong. I think my error was
being new to the Stylus.
I don't remember my JR allowing me to get the shift wrong... if I did the
servos didn't work, and certainly not 5 work and one fail.

I have been following the Schulze thread with much interest as I am

and won last year. It's also flown by approximately half the mas

With all the "publicity" about FMA over the past year or so,
a quote from P.T. Barnum springs to mind.

Something is seriously defective with the last two FMA Fortresses I've
picked up.
I got one yesterday, and out of the box channels 5 and 6 (flaps/Stylus)
were very jittery with lots of noise. So I returned and the kid behind the

Mike,
Go with the Javelin.
The Javelin handles and flies like a true HLG. It flies MUCH better than
the 1-26 in flat out performance, but it's not as durable as the 1-26. The
Javelin will reward you if you build it well, the 1-26 doesn't really care,
as long as the wings aren't twisted.

I use an Edwards high vacuum pump and use 29.85 inches of vacuum (1 torr) on all my
foam core wings then put 120 lbs of lead on top
of the cores. I estimate the total load on the the cores to be about 2500 lbs. I've
never squashed a pink foam core. Anything
over 15 inches will probably do.

My friend has ordered two Esprits in the recent past and the service has

The Mueller product is supreme.
I would not hesitate to order from Aero-Model.

I've been using some of the newer, less expensive servos for a while now in
HLG's, electrics, and 2-meters.
Some are really good (hs50's, cs25-30's...) some not so good.

For using quantities less than the amounts the pump delivers there is an
