[RCSE] F3B onboard launch video

There is a very interesting onboard video of a F3B launch (Pike) and short aerobatic high speed flight at http://www.f3b.no/index2.htm 13.5mb avi video, it's worth the download time! P.S. It looks like the Norway guys have to plow their field from snow before flying. That is that white stuff o

[RCSE] Airtronics 141 servos???

I simply hate Airtronics 141s, why anyone would use them is beyond me-buuu, unfortunately I have four old ones laying around that were pulled out of an old F3B plane. I want to put them in another old plane I am going to put together "on the cheap" for the Davenport slope races. Many of you

Re: [RCSE] Multiplex Cockpit Development

Maybe we can now stop all this conjecture and wait for things to work out. Karlton never said Hitec was screwing him. It was just a bunch of misinformed reactionaries. In fact, he always seemed to have trouble with Multiplex Germany and this may be better for everyone in the long run. Thanks for

Re: [RCSE] Fixing wing servo covers

I use Scotch #600 clear tape in 1/2" width. It's completely clear and glossy - properly applied to a clean surface and gently rubbed down, it's invisible from more than a foot away. I also use this stuff as a protective layer where the wing sections join, so the colored tape won't lift the p

[RCSE] NiMH/Nicad Peak settings?

>>set the peak detection to .3v instead of .5v 0.5V ??? For a default setting, this seems high to me. I have two older chargers that have no setting for peak magnitude. Yet they both terminate at between 0.1 and 0.3 volts depending on the slope of the particular curve at the time. Bill Swingl

[RCSE] Monster FF to 2M Sailplane conversion.

Monster Free flight to 2M Sailplane conversion. Hi all. I saw the Lanier foam U2 Free Flight Glider on sale for under $20.00 so I just couldn’t pass it up. I figure with a reinforced wing, toe hook, and receiver (ruder/elevator) I could hi-start this monster and have a very light fun flyer jus

[RCSE] Fixing wing servo covers

Hi guys, Are there any neat ways to fix wing servo covers to all-mould wings ? Most people just tape the covers in place in order to make them easily removable when the servos need be serviced. The method is simple and practical but it's not cosmetically great. Thanks, Y C Lui RCSE-List fac

Re: [RCSE] Multiplex Cockpit Development

Hello Tom, I have noted the work you have done and I hope you and I can develop a relationship to move some of your work forward. Please have patience and understand the plan to distribute the Multiplex line successfully in the US through Hitec's Southern California office is a complex and costl

[RCSE] Re; JR610m

I have one of the old and new JR 610ms  There problem with the old one was the length of the antenna.  It was shortened for micro flying and degraded the range.  The length of the new antennas are 36 inches.  This I believe is all that was done to fix the problem. They are not duel conversion.  Bu
