[SPAM] RE: [SPAM] Re: PCM lock out servo mvt

[Dean Pappas]

Hi Nat,
You mean a Pattern ship dethermalizer?
Has anyone gotten their 3-D ship to Elevator hands-off? By
hands-off, I mean absolutely no rudder or aileron corrections needed in order to hit the ground flat.
I haven't seen it yet.
Regards,
	Dean

Eric,
I find it impossible to acquire three desired flight positions and press 
store.Had'nt thought about doing it in the air. Will try and report.Thanks.

It's neat to watch 'em soar like a buzzard. A very low and slow descent rate 
and might even save an airplane.   Nat
