[NSRCA-discussion] Shorting plug with 2.4

[Anthony Romano]

 Hi Dave,

   Like the throttle up idea. Wasn't sure how annoying the brake/deadstick switch would be we is why I called it an experiment. One of those things I will have to try. Might be best to have the brake on a seperate switch.

 

Jim,

 

 Vanquish Fury outrunner 37mm 800kv (iirc) w/ CC Phoenix 45

2m stuff AXI 5330 F3A w/ CC HV 85

 

Chris,

 

 The only down side to the shorting plug is weight and an extra connection point. It would be nice to be safely ready to fly without having to mess with the canopy.

Pos 0 – brake
Pos 1 – slowest idle
Pos 2 - +300 RPM idle for better stall turns and spin entries
 
If you are considering toggling between low idle and brake on/off in the air……I’d have it on a different switch than your “kill” switch….lest you find yourself deadsticking because of an errant switch flip.

 Hi Chris,
 
     Never used one but like the idea. I use the throttle cut function on the SD-10. It is set to a switch so when not flying my TX is always in the throttle cut position. When my caller puts the plane down I flip the switch and my motor starts at the lowest possible idle with the trim centered. If I need to adjust my idle I can do it with the trim.
    Since all of the switches are 3 position my next experiment is to use the idle up function to set the brake on the middle switch position. 
    Has the E-motion flown yet?

What are your thoughts on using a shorting plug with the 2.4 systems. I always used them before, but now with my new system, I'm not sure it's necessary. 

Thanks!
