    JR Loyalty Trade In Program for DSM2/DSMX Radios to new DMSS Systems

    The issue is that DMSS is much faster and many features aren't possible with DSMX. DMSS is also a global solution unlike the DSM2/DSMX based systems. Now, the programming is the same anywhere in the world on all systems, unlike DSM2/DSMX based JR systems. Horizon set the programming for the...

    Scale MattyMatt's Exclusiv Modellbau 50% Challenger II

    The hatch doors are not included in the kit. Like most german kits, they expect you to know how to build and install the gear the way you want. I wanted to have access to the servos. So, I made the hatches out of 1/16" ply.

    Nice quiet Christmas! Hope everyone is enjoying the day. I'll be spending a few hours with the challenger today. So, next is to setup the elevator servos and install the control surface horns. The plane was designed for two elevator servos each, but that was when the JR8411 was king, with...

    JR Loyalty Trade In Program for DSM2/DSMX Radios to new DMSS Systems

    New JR Loyalty Trade In Program just started with JR Americas. This is a great way to get into a new JR XG series system including the 28X. The new DMSS based systems are 100% JR, unlike the previous shared technology with the previous DSM2/DSMX systems. The program information is here...

    JR Americas has put out a notice, and in general what it says is JR found a component that wasn't to their quality level and has delayed the release of the 28x until February. If you had one on backorder they will be giving you a 712bx reciever.

    F3S - Jet Precision Aerobatics

    Attached is the FAI sporting code for all of the rules. Also attached on it's own is the sequence... notice, no cross box, no rolling circles, no snaps/spins/hammers. It's like 1987 turnaround pattern!

    F3S - Jet Precision Aerobatics

    Hey Ya'll... something new is starting in 2015 for the USA, and that is F3S. Most people are familiar with F3A (pattern), F3C (Helicopter Precision), F3K (discus launch glider), F3P (Precision Indoor Airplanes). These are all FAI classes under the F3 classification for Radio Controlled...

    Glassing and Painting techniques

    hairspray is just a clear lacquer spray... at least the cheap stuff! Great thread... I just saw this, and agree with most of the stuff said. For the hobbiest, especially painting a few small parts, a water separator at the compressor and a descant filter will work fine. If you spray a bunch...
