Second, let's not lose sight that we are speaking about telemetry and we are speaking of automated functions here, not those that require direct and manual input. The wording is such that engine management systems that COORDINATE (through telemetry and read: automatically adjust) power output (to maintain a speed or anything that may relate to) with model performance, position, or attitude. Honestly, this is no different than a gyro correcting attitude and we certainly don't want to allow that. We simply are trying to allow telemetry that is important for safety and continue to dis-allow anything that automates flying the aircraft. In my very humble opinion and to answer your question; Yes, I think we do want to outlaw something that makes our models fly better IF it is automated and not pilot-induced.<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>On Mon, Apr 23, 2012 at 11:10 AM, James Oddino <<a href="http://us.mc1616.mail.yahoo.com/mc/compose?to=joddino@socal.rr.com" target="_blank">joddino@socal.rr.com</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal>What does it mean?
