[NSRCA-discussion] JR Propo changing to DMSS

[ehaury]

Jon

I tend to agree. I've used data logging extensively to study various aspects of pattern maneuvers and airplane performance using EagleTree equipment. I've not used their telemetry feature, nor desired to. As you note - there's enough to do flying the airplane without trying to digest data. My current radio has telemetry capabilities and, while a low voltage alarm on the RX pack and/or motor pack is nice, it's not very useful for pattern as we generally fly a sequence and land. I suppose the low motor pack voltage alarm is a good thing for the E guys that fly until the motor stops. For the RX pack data to be useful the connection needs to be made before the regulator, which adds to complexity - again most pattern guys don't push these packs to the limit either.

If the telemetry data is stored in the TX for later analysis I would find it useful - eliminates the need for the ET logger. OTOH - compare ET sensor prices to those of the radio guys. I see the telemetry being offered mostly as a marketing "feature" - nice to talk about but not providing much value.

  I do, and I don't see any more need for it that with a YS. Don't need the distraction while I'm flying.

  If you fly electric you'll understand the need for telemetry  .

    It looks like JR decided to separate from Spektrum by going Dual Modulation Spectrum System.  
    Combination of DSSS & FHSS.

    New XG series 6ch, 8ch, 11ch radio have been introduced.  All became a member of Hasbro Transformers?

    Following the Hitec?  Two way communications (Telemetry built-in).  I am not talking about the AMA rule.  Just curious why telemetry is so important on new systems.  I’ve never had a need for Telemetry capability of Spektrum.  

    Has anyone of the Team JR members tried the new system yet?  Felt any Differences?

    Not sure if it is a wise decision on US marketing purpose.  Not compatible to DSM2/X.  Maybe there is a new US distribution for JR beside Horizon?

    Those of you who went to Toledo.  Did you have a chance to try any of above beside new DX10T, DX18?
