    Question? Which wattmeter

    I am planning on going with the Wattsup meter also. Seems like best bang for the buck. I did look at this one: http://www.chiefaircraft.com/radio-control/tools/watt-meters/ast-0101.html and the E-flite. The E-flight comes pre set up with EC3's, so that seemed like a waste to me as all I run are...

    FAQ Setting up and programming multiple servos per surface; programming Hitec servos

    I have, and I will continue to brag up this site! Please consider doing a section on radio programming for various radios. I think there are many newbies, like me, who would benefit from some expert info on programmable mixes and general settings on their 9503 or DX18's. I have often wished that...
