PE Pro & Ion Cube
Does anyone know if the Ion Cube from Fromeco can charge both batteries (common ground) at the same time using the Smart-Fly charging system or must each battery be charged separately? Thanks.

RE: programming 4 aileron servos on 9303
[quote]ORIGINAL: LearnedInUk Hosea's will work fine. It is the same method I used in my 94" Lanier Extra. To clarify the steps I used System> Wing Type>Dual (select AUX3 under ALIE) I can trim left and right side individually. Once you get them mechanically right there really should be no need to independently trim each servo. On a side note regarding programming the 9303.... I have a smoke pump on Aux2 and have it mixed with the throttle. It works fine EXCEPT when the plane is powered off and then back on the only way I can get the pump to work is to go into SYSTEM (turn on radio with ENT held down) then device select and change AUX to INH then exit System and then go back into System and reset the AUX2 to ACT. All while the plane is switched on. Any Ideas? I will also post in the proper forum Try taking that question to this site: http://www.team-horizon.com/ [/quote]

Why would an AD suddenly be missing from the classifieds if an offer was accepted and why would it not be located when using the reference number and or not show up in the "sold" area?

RE: hobbycity.com
Thanks guys i read all the FAQ's and support pages but fail to see anything addressing how a canceled order is dealt with....that's why i was providing a heads up on store credit...it's that simple. I since have discovered that PayPal (although an option) is also the CC processor and that proved to be confusing in trying to sort things out. Fortunately (this is not really a big deal in the scheme of things) my CC company is going to credit my account even if the shop does not provide a refund to them.....it's just nice to be aware of policy when doing business and their policy is not visible to potential customers that's all.

RE: Lanier Yak
Hi guys just wanted to pass along somewhat of an update. A friend who has a couple of these yaks allowed me to fly both of them. One was "radically" lightened to 17 1/2 lbs and the other built basically standard (one servo per ail on both planes) with each powered by an Evo58. Both planes were equiped about the same. Neither plane was really setup completely for various reasons but comparing equal stages of setup the model built closer to standard flew noticeably better IMO....maneuver for maneuver. I'm not sure of the actual weight of the standard plane but i thought it was interesting to note and pass on for what it's worth!

RE: Oxai Zeque
[quote]ORIGINAL: ual767 I put in 2 flights today before the rain started. The wind was dead calm so I had to run out and take advantage of the perfect trimming conditions. I can tell now that over all the Zeque is the best plane that I have flown to date. It does pitch to the belly slightly with left rudder knife edge and a little bit less to the belly with right rudder. Not bad but similar to most other pattern planes that I have flown. There is also very slight proverse roll coupling in knife edge. (roll in direction of rudder). Both easily mixed out. The aileron throw was reduced to 10 degrees and I like it better than before at 12 degrees. The ailerons start and stop very positively and cleanly in roll and the pitch control is equally positive. Vertical lines are very good and the thrust line seems extremely close to perfect. Due to the low clouds, I did not take it up to do spins today so I will reserve comment on that until next time. The Axi / Castle set ran great with tons of power. 10 minutes from take off till touchdown required 3200mah returned to the packs. The best way to describe the plane is that it presents extremely well. That is very difficult to quantify but it just looks great while going through the maneuvers. [b]If only my skills were a close match for the plane's capabilities :)[/b][/quote] Chris no problem all you need is a regular schedule, regular meal times, consistent sleeping schedule, drink plenty of water and practice while you are alert.......the rest will just fall in place...simple enough!
