[NSRCA-discussion] JR and Flight modes

[chuenkan at comcast.net]

Stuart, 

I am sure the programming on the JR is as alien to you as the Futaba is for me. Moreover, the new JR DMSS system is just as alien to me, being a Spektrum user for ever. OTOH, once you lean it, it is inherently easier and more intuitive than Futaba. That is from Futaba users who have watched me program my Tx's and they volunteered that comment. When you are up to your armpits in Futaba, you have a lot to unlearn before you can learn the good stuff. ;-{) 

I would suggest talking to Mike McConville @ Horizon Hobby, or one of the techs in their tech support center. I have had outstanding help from both the tech and the customer support centers. As I said, once you learn to program it, and get used to the feel, I think you will really like the JR. I started computer radios with Futaba, then went to JR and finally to Spektrum when JR & Spektrum got out of bed with each other. 

BTW, tell Keith what he can do with your receipt -- or you can do it for him! lol

I have been flying Futaba, transmitters for pattern since, well forever. 
I decided it was time for a new radio and just got a JR 28X. I have 
been using Futaba flight modes mostly for Spins and snaps but can't seem 
to get the programming on the JR to behave the way i want. 
The default airplane program has 3 flight modes on the switch that I 
would want, but I really can't get it to control anything. 
With Futaba the flight modes are like a different model where everything 
can have its own settings and it takes priority over dual rate settings etc. 

So far for the JR I have been unable to get it to work that way. For 
example I have three rates set up for Elevator on one of the switches. 
When I change to Flight mode 2 (Snaps) The dual rate is still active 
and controls the elevator curve. I am trying to get a different throw 
for the snaps and spins and I expect to have Aileron and Rudder affected 
by the same switch. 
Any suggestions to make this work :) 


Thanks, 
Stuart
