Spektrum AR9100 RX <BR>Date: Sat, 16 Feb 2008 15:52:36 +0000 <BR><BR>Yes I
have used it, if only for one flight. It works as advertised, a <BR>very nice
product for current hungry planes. It's also easier to install <BR>since it
does not require as much wiring. If you use A123 or Nimh packs <BR>they can be
wired directly into the receiver, no switch and no <BR>regulators in line.
<BR><BR>As a footnote, when I used it I had two A123 lithium packs, one
powered <BR>only the receiver as "Batt 1" and the other powered the reciver as
<BR>"Batt-2" and also powered the ignition. I have done this mow several
<BR>times with Spektrum receivers with no problem whatsoever. The A123 packs
<BR>have so much capacity it seemed a shame to carry even more for ! the ign
ition. <BR><BR>TF <BR><BR>vicenterc@comcast.net wrote: <BR>> <BR>> Hello
