<p>Nope!!!!!! Just trying to simplify the judging stress by a more universal
presentation.
<br>Great hearing from you!

the radii size and line length is not a judging criteria unless there are
geometry issues that require same line lengths. Power of one model is not
a criteria over the lack of power in another model as long as geometry

Don,
<br>Thanks for taking the time to respond. It was not expected, but appreciated.
I have your responce printed out for reference.
<br>I also received an additional help from another concerned individual
who sent me an article from Horizon on programming the 10-X which just
happened to be 35 pages in length, but I was unable to print it. It activates
a non-accessable dialogue box. Duh!
<br>Regarding switch assignments: E-F, MD, LD, MX, AU, GR, SNP, STK,......I'm
aware that MX refers to the mix switch, GR the gear switch, SNP the snap
switch, and STK the throttle lever, but am in the dark regarding the rest.
Could you define E-F, MD, LD, AU, .......AU sounds like it would be an
Auxilliary switch, but which one? Also, is it possible to assign anything
to the Flap Switch (not the flap lever), the one that says "elev and land"
beside it?
<br>Thanks for explaining "Normal, Include, and Origin" .
<br>I'm using the Elev D/R switch for activation of my flight mode which
prompts me to ask, are you flying mode one or two?
<br>On the subject of the mousse can, the one I had on my Schmooze is going
on a new airplane this season so I have gotten more longevity from it than
I originally anticipated.
<br>Oh, while I've got you, that #10 maneuver in F-03. I got thinking about
that the other nite and it occurred to me after drawing out several variations
of the maneuver that if the loop portion of the maneuver is sized so that
the bottom of the loop is at the same altitude as the entry line, then
the vertical up becomes the absolute center of the maneuver no matter what
size you make the overall maneuver. Makes it very easy to judge the center
of the maneuver, for both the pilot and the judge. Troy's probably going
to jump in here and complain about too much detail, but as a judge I feel
every maneuver needs an absolute standard to be judged against.When there's
too much subjectivity allowed everybodys personal bias gets thrown into
the mix and interpretations run wild.Draw this out at a few different scales
and you'll see what I mean.
<br>Thanks again,
<br>Georgie

<blockquote TYPE="CITE"> <font size=-1>Georgie,</font> <font size=-1>I'm
really sorry you are having difficulty with programming, I'll be happy
to show you next time we see each other. Never having done
airbrake before (if you mean both ailerons up like when landing), I just
turned it on and programmed it with the following:</font> <font size=-1>With
the airbrake coming on at low throttle like when landing, here are the
following steps (assuming you have wing type set to flaperon):Pick a mix
(I used 51) select throttle ---> flap. Go to "ORIG". then page
back and hit the offset (I normally give it two clicks of throttle) then
enter the percent mix (that you want the ailerons to go up). Ooops,
wrong direction ailerons are going down, just hit the "turn" button.
Done! Want to turn it on/off with any switch? Just hit the page button
and select one. BTW, "ORIG" is used so that if you have to
make trim changes to throttle, it won't effect the mix, just takes the
raw stick movement. Norm, is normal stick and trim and INCL adds
in everything you have tied to it (like mixes).</font> <font size=-1>Don't
want associated airbrakes with throttle stick position? Then just do the
same 51, and mix gear to flaps (or any free channel to flap), and you're
there. Bump up the % to where you want it. Done. In fact you
can assign this to most any (gear, aux 2, aux 3, aux 4, aux 5) switch/lever
by assigning therefore, and then going to your favorite code 17, disactivating
the (master mix channel).</font> <font size=-1>Switch assignment- mixes
can be assigned to any of your switch/lever of choice (E-F, MD, LD, MX,
AU, GR, SNP, and stick position).</font> <font size=-1>Its harder to describe
than to just dive in and program with the touch screen.</font> <font size=-1>The
5 flight modes that are available can be used for different setups (if
you want to experiment trying different combinations during a flight for
example) Its an incredibly potent radio. BTW, To get the extra two
rates, go to your favorite function 17 and select "extra" and you'll see
FM3 and FM4 appear in your Dual Rate/Expo (Code 13).</font> <font size=-1>I've
set up 5 flight modes before. For example on my TOC plane I have normal
flying (F0), 4 roll circles (F1), One roll circles (F2), 3D/ Freestyle
(F3), and alternate 3D/ Freestyle (F4). Note for the back right switch,
it gives you F0, F3 and F4, so you can always go back you your baseline
F0 with just one switch movement. Transmitter beeps if you turn it
on and switch rate position is other than F0.. Useful if you don't
want to take off in 3D mode.</font> <font size=-1>I will say, however,
its up to personal preferences. For example, on my pattern plane,
I prefer just one switch (the aileron D/R) for changing all (Ail, elev,
rudder) rates from low to high. I make the centers the same (double
expo on high) so I can switch rates during a maneuver, in fact even during
a (loose) loop radius, and it will have the same feel and not "jerk" when
I change rates. If I could get by with just one rate and no switches
at all, I would. Chip does. Some pattern plane designs are already
there.</font> <font size=-1>BTW, still have the double moose can muffler
(as a spare)that I made from your great idea in case the multi $$ ES pipe
fails.</font> <font size=-1>Don</font>

<br> I feel compelled to interject at this point that my experience
with the JR 10X programming has not been the piece of cake that others
seem to find it to be.</blockquote>
