<DIV>Here is a link to a column I wrote in the Kfactor a while back. It talks about the 1024 resolution on a Futaba radio. Very similar to what you just said.</DIV>

<DIV class=plainMail>I'll try to explain this as I understand it. With a 2048 system you get 2048 TX step outputs through the entire stick travel only if the electronic throws in the TX are set to Max. Say that's 150% Travel at 100% Dual Rate. Those numbers vary amongst the brands and models but this is a start. Any reduction from there will reduce the 2048 by some percentage. Let's say Travel is set to 100% and Dual Rate remains 100%. You have just reduced the number of steps by 33% so now you're down to around 1350. If you reduce the Dual Rate to 80% from there you're now flying on 1080. If this started out as a 1024 you would end up at 540. I guarantee you'll feel the difference between 1080 and 540.<BR><BR>I always try to maximize the electronic throws and set the mechanicals to get the surface travel I desire. But some things are inevitable. To get the model to properly break in a spin takes a lot of elevator deflection, so I end up flying with DR
set to 50% or so for normal flying. The higher 2048 system makes a difference with this sort of an example. And I do believe the better servos will respond to this fine of a command.<BR><BR>Hope this isn't too confusing.<BR><BR>TonyF<BR><BR></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></DIV><BR>-----Inline Attachment Follows-----<BR><BR>
