[NSRCA-discussion] Futaba FASST module test

[Ihncheol Park]

Jason,
 
Thank you for the posting.  Sounds great.
I just looked at the picture of TM-8 and could read the labeling on dial.
4-positions 
 
position 7 >>7ch-France, 
position 8 >>7ch-general,
position 9 >>8ch-France, 
position 0 >>8ch-general
 
So, I think end user need to select 7 or 8 channel depending on radio they
use the module with.

I believe France is a different power setting, but don't hold me to that.
 
Here's what I've done so far:
 
Radios: 9C and 8U both with antenna's still in, but fully collapsed
Plane: Trainer 
TM-7 module and receiver system
 
I tested the TM-7 in the 9C and 8U in my trainer, although not as many
flights as I wanted since the carb screws came out of my motor. I didn't get
a chance to fly it in the 9Z, but hope to this week. I am certainly not
worried about the range. I flew it up, and way up (like I did on the 6EX)
and it was great. When I was way up there I put the Tx behind my back and
was able to block the signal, but I dropped down maybe 200 feet and it came
back solid again. It was only blocked when it was at the extreme altitude. I
brought it down a bit and I was able to fly it behind my back no problem.
And honestly it was under my rear cause I was sitting down for the test.
Flying to the altitude I was at takes a long time with a 46 powered trainer.
Down low, it didn't matter where I had the Tx. I even flew with some chain
link fence pieces between me and the plane. Seeing as it was only flown in
the trainer, I couldn't tell how the response speed was, but I didn't notice
it to be any slower than what I had been flying. I guess the real test will
be when I put it in my Integral and compare it to my 14. 
 
It will end up in my Integral, I just have to decide if I will fly it with
the 9Z or 9C. Looking forward to the TM-14...

Jason,
 
Thank you for the picture.  Not easy to take the picture of small area
right? :P
What France has to do with the module?
Does it send different signal or change the RX channel line-up?
Which Radio(s) have you tested so far?
