I had no problem finding and adjusting the trim for elevator without taking my eyes off the plane. The action was intuitive. The position is better as far as finding them without looking. The analog trims where centered on the stick, you had to reach around the stick to make an elevator adjustment (or use your other hand, or a friend). <br><br>Bob Kane<br>getterflash@yahoo.com<div><br></div><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;"><br><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;"><font face="Tahoma" size="2"><hr size="1"><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">From:</span></b>

Hi guys,<br>
I got my SD-10 about a week before the Nats and I am really
starting to like it. Switch to the heavy springs as soon as you open the
box. Even set lightly they have a great feel. The resistance on the throttle is
seperate from the ratchet. Mine was very light out of the box. Spend the ten
minutes with the back off the radio and customize it you will be happy you did.
<br>
If you fly fingers the trims will feel very intuitive. The are
right were your hand want to fall. We have all just gotten used
to centered trims after so many years. For me snap timing and 8 -
points changed just much crisper than my Stylus.<br>
One really cool thing on the throttle cut especially for E power. I set
the throttle cut on switch 15 right over the left stick. The great safety
thing is no matter what you do with the throttle stick the motor will not
turn. I feel much better plugging my packs in and my caller handling my
plane knowing that I can't accidentally bump the throttle and
have a problem. Then switch 14 is the idle up set to a negative offset.
This will engage the brake and allow normal throttle response. Switch 13
is normal flight and normal trim settings to set your idle with no brake.
This is for most fly and makes it easier for me to land without
slowing down too quickly.<br>
I will have to RTFM myself. I thought the wall wart that comes with is a
peak detection charger. The light will turn green and flip to trickle mode.
Because of this Global has been recomending the first five charges be for 24
hours to properly break in the pack to give max flight time.<br>
<br>
PS. Bob it may be time for a servo upgrade too!<br>
