Futaba calls it 'Grouping'--but I'm not sure how the 1-4 signal works into that. Possibly if you've 'grouped' say channel 1 and 6, one is the master and the second(6) syncs up with that and the signal that would normally drive the second is ignored. It all seems to work pretty well. Obviously, I could stand to do a little more research on the subject...<BR>

They often have 6 and 8 servos in their wing alone, and having a small delay between some of the channels updating creates trimming issues such that they would not be able to take advantage of using separate channels if there were delays. Having such a strong presence in the glider community, they needed to address it. The result is that the new radio updates all 10 channels simultaneously rather than in groups of 4. NO clue how that was pulled off technically (or how they got their speed so high) but both are clearly a result of these types of “threads” and the resulting priority that they’ve placed on latency concerns.</SPAN></FONT></P>

<P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 12pt" class=ecxMsoNormal><FONT size=2 face=Verdana><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"><BR> <BR>The original post was in '05 in that link. He has been updating it as he gets new info. It's worth a read--but takes a while. Some feel the thread has contributed greatly to latency being decreased in radios across the board. As someone pointed out "..radios got pretty damn fast pretty damn fast..."<BR>Regarding Futaba modules--at least on the TM14, the information is sent in groups of four, so you would have minimum latency difference for example between channels 1-4, 5-8, 9-12, etc.. so it would be better to have dual elevators next to one another and possibly ailerons in one of the 1-4 groups if your transmitter has the capability to reassign channel positions. It would also be helpful to those that have more than one servo per surface. It's very important to the helo guys as they need the swash plate to move evenly. Apparently not quite as noticeable in pattern.<BR>I switched from 50mhz/5114DPS to the 2.4/TM14/6008HS combo and the best one word description I can give is "silky"--but it could be additional latency--Futaba says there should be no difference. I think I like it--but I have to--it's what I've got! <BR> <BR>Richard<BR> <BR>PS Anyone need any DPS5114s on 50mhz.?..yeah, that's what I thought...</SPAN></FONT></P>
