 This raises the obvious question of what delays there are at the Tx end, I'm 
thinking particularly of high end sets such as the 9ZAP and 4000 where there 
is a lot of computing involved in calculating each pulse length over perhaps 
9 channels. One wonders how many frames go by before the microprocessor gets 
the information to the encoder. Has anyone detected a delay? Could we have 
some more technical input on this?

I always got a kick out of this pulse response thing, as there is no way a 
human could detect an ms delay in servo response in any of our radios.  You 
can't see it with your eye but more realistically, you can't affect the 
minute proportional surface changes with your thumbs (unless maybe if you 
have the dexterity of a card mechanic or magician).  As we approach 40 our 
thumgs move in graduations closer to 1/8" segements than one-hundredth of 
inches.

The originator of the 'speed' post won't take the care to insure that there 
is no linkage slop that would eat up the 'response' speed advantage.

Lets touch on some reality, the slowest radio system made today is faster in 
all its functions than your thumbs.

So spend as little on the radio as you can, take the money you save and use 
it to sign up for a card dealing or magic school where you will learn 
excercises and drills that will speed up your your thumb and finger precision 
and coordination.

By the way, what plane are you going to fly that needs this 'speedy' system?
