The JR XP9303

[AWorrest at aol.com]

I received my JR XP9303 about a month ago.  I finished programming it for my 
Saphir and Killer Chaos.  If you owned an 8103, you will find the programming 
of the 9303 to be familiar. There are differences.  I suppose the biggest 
difference is the availability of flight modes on the 9303.  However as a person 
who seldom use rate switches, flight modes for my power planes may not get used 
much.  There are more options than the 8103 and this makes it more 
complicated to program.

If I have any criticisms, it would be the manual.  It has been rewritten.  I 
prefer the stodgier 8103 style.  The manual could also be more expansive.  
There are 9303 features which are unknown even to Horizon, such as how to program 
the trainer push button into a throttle kill.  I also spent several days 
rewriting the setup sheet.  I'm not sure what the one in the manual was written 
for.  I expanded it into two pages.

The set with a 649 receiver and DS811 servos has proven reliable, as has my 
other JR equipment.  I did have to tighten the stick tensions considerably.  
The tension on most of my JR transmitters was acceptable as they came from the 
factory.  I have no regrets about buying the 9303.

Currently, I'm exploring the 9303 features for sailplanes.  I may find a use 
for the flight modes there.
