Putting the Community back in to Radio Control
And just how many times has the RF part of a transmitter failed? I really don't see the advantage here, the most likely part to fail surely are the mechanical items eg the sticks, what so good about dual Tx?J
Transmitter aerial alignment is at least as important for maintaining contact as receiver aerial alignment, and we keep hearing how important it is to have the two receiver aerials at 90 degrees to each other. Dual Tx allows you to do this on the Tx as well.
Does it make any difference in practice? Probably only at extreme range in difficult conditions.
Am I willing to pay for the extra 0.1% security? Yes I am. You probably are not, but I don't see any problem with each person making his own choice .
.........Mmmm, thats a bit harsh, I suppose I get a similar end result by placing 4 Rx's in my Boomerang Jet, money isn't the deciding factor for me. I am happy with my Spektrum system and the flightlog which confirms my signals are being received loud and clear.J
Sorry if it came across a bit harsh - it wasn't intended that way .I was just pointing out that there many ways to get the results we are looking for - there is not room in my narrow fusealage (and expensive!) electric gliders for multiple receivers so I do it differently. Dick
Multiplex in my opinion arn't that great.Ive an Sx 2.4ghz and ive noticed that channel 7 is jittery,ive tried 3 servos from ch7 rec outputand all jitter during operation!! im very disappointed.Also setting up a MPX Cularis with the Sx,so motor is actually on the throttle stick is a bloody pain!Who designs these radio's?Its certainly not by people who have to use them.
Re: A "what is good about Multiplex" thread - compared to spektrumThis, cos you cant drink and fly with any of those sparkly Japanese/Taiwanese sets.
P.S. Just don't spill that coffee!!
it wasn't coffee in there!
No need Frank, the existing tray caters more than adequately for any such requirement.......
It's how I was taught W8, back around the time of the Roman Invasion. Most flew mode 1 at that time.
But I'm glad to see you don't try to defend the archaic practice of using IC engines in models. There's hope for you yet... PDR
