[NSRCA-discussion] Electric vs. Glow

[JShulman]

I'll wait on the outrunner. We had the brake in France also, but I didn't
have time to figure it out in flight to start using it. I did use it in a
maneuver during the finals sometime, but by pure accident. If I don't want
the brake, I leave my idle up and it doesn't work. I want the brake, I idle
down to a prop stop and it's there. That's enough adjustment for me.
Anything more and I'd have to be an engineer to figure it out...LOL

You need an outrunner :)

Been flying with a break since France....best thing since sliced
bread...no gears, no problems :)

Schulze controller though, and fully adjustable in flight so I can turn
it off if its causing problems.
