<DIV><FONT face=Arial> We were using this
stuff in our wireless network experiments many years ago, and it struck me
that we needed it in our RC radios. But, as always it was too expensive for
toy planes! Much earlier, I had the misfortune to own a 495 mHz aircraft radio
when they were tried in the UK. It was very directional, which was not that
bad, but it also would just stop working without warning. No PCM so it was
'Crunch and go home time!"</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial> I spend a lot of
time looking at the new radios that are coming out. None IMHO have addressed
the weaknesses in our radio link. The latest Futaba radio, for example, is a
wonderful piece of engineering with all the knobs (interchangeable-knobs at
that!) and whistles that you could ask for. The Graupner MC-20 had a plug
selectable switches knobs and sliders with 30 Model memory. The Multiplex was
softer programmed and very flexible. But and it is a big BUT, none of them
improved the connection to the receiver like this DSM in either of its
concepts.</FONT></DIV>

I would sell all of my JR Radios to buy one very expansive radio if it could
reject interference from outside or other radios. The safety feature
alone is worth the big bucks. I am guessing that you could put this RC
car radio in a plane and it would work. For example, in all the "electrics"
that we are flying in barns and b-ball courts?</FONT></DIV>

I hope I live long enough to get a radio with DSM or
equivalent.</FONT></DIV>
