[Koenig, Tom]

Good morning fellows,

Thank you for the replies...I will keep in touch off-line regarding this radio.

You guys have me a little spooked!   BUT...I can tell you this. The radio's release in Australia was delayed due to some 'receiver issue'. I have heard it was hardware related, then in the last few days I have heard it was software related. I have NO idea which!!!!
Strangely enough it was held back only a week or so. Maybe you guys figured out a problem with it, just in time for my benefit??

I can tell you I have flown the radio just this weekend without ANY problems. I am slowly figuring out SOME of it's capabilities, now I just have to figure out how I can best apply it to F3A!!
I have also tried the 1024 reverse capability, no problems so far but had to make sure that the ATV's were set at 140% max as in the W/C...otherwise none of my expo's or AFR's measured up.

Thanks for the input and keep in touch

best regards

Tom

Eric
Can you elaborate on the "Be sure to have the throttle at Idle before Switching on"?
After using mine for a couple days, I started having problems with the throttle.  After dealing with all the trials and tribulations of trying to figure where the problem lies, I finally figured out that the receiver was going into lockout on the throttle channel.  During the switching receiver on process, I noticed that the plane "appeared" to turn on, but until I moved the throttle stick, nothing else would work.  I placed the old R149DP receiver back in, Switched to 1024, and everything worked like it should.  I bought a new receiver and will get to check it out early next week.
I'd be pleased to hear any and all that others have found to be different or just weird about the dealings with this new radio.
