    not a problem at all Kork, the next time someone cruises through and see this thread they might find their own problem or at least feel comfortable asking about it themselves. glad you found the problem.

    Sorting Classifieds listings! Thanks to AeroSheldon!!

    you can close the ad and change the thread-prefix to SOLD i'm researching a better classifieds system but you'd be surprised at how few options there are. even on V-bulletin there is one option but they force you to charge a fee per ad. if i had a multi-million dollar software company and a...

    Radio brownout - Lost another pair of underwear (and confidence in the plane)

    yes for a particular set-up. if you put them into a higher load situation then yes the amps go up but you might still run lower amps then on a lower load with lower voltage. it's been a while since I tried to measure amps through servos. might be a good project for the website to demonstrate...

    after market ignition

    i was just reading through the manual for your engine and figured i'd copy/paste this as it's good info for someone else surfing through from the DA-60 user manual, Ignition System; When making electrical connections to the ignition system, use the same gauge wire (or larger) as used on the...

    Radio brownout - Lost another pair of underwear (and confidence in the plane)

    an overlooked detail in all of this is that as system voltages go up, the amp/current draw goes down making power management systems even less necessary. if the receiver is limited to 10 amps and you're running 9 at 4.8 volts, bumping the voltage to 7.4 actually makes the total amps draw less...

    Wanted JR 8711 and 8411 servos

    i'm going to pass for now as I have three 8411's and could use one more so I'll have two sets of two. I can also use an additional 8711 for a rudder. thanks for the reply though! if anyone sees your post and would like to buy them from you i'm all for it! :)

    Place to Fly Near Cape May, NJ

    Wee just got back from Cape May last night, there is an aviation museum at Cape May County airport but I didn't get a chance to check it out. I think it is associated with a warbird restorer down there. Let us know if you get a chance to do some flying. We did a dolphin watching cruise and got...
