[NSRCA-discussion] Spektrum 2.4

[brian young]

Curious, I was talking with a very good pilot and his opinion of the spectrum was that it felt sluggish as compared to our current radios, although hes flying the 14z.  He refered to it as having high latency...
   
  Can anyone comment on this?

    Has anyone tried the new spektrum in something other than a small foamie?  What are ya'lls thought on spektrum and can we use them at the Nats. 
   
  Thanks Dylan F

  My Dad has one of the new DX7's flying in a 2 meter Arresti III pattern bird and it works fine.  It is designed for all uses, not just foamies.  I haven't flown it yet, but expect to over Christmas.  One big deterrent for me is the fact that it doesn't have a throttle curve in airplane mode.  I looked at using heli mode which does have throttle curves, but there are only a couple of mixes available, and neither includes trim.  Airplane mode has several programmable mixes, a couple of them have trim available, but none have multipoint.
   
  Since it is designed for all uses, there should be no problem at the Nats, if you can live with the limitations.
