New TX for me

Picked up my New TX today.



Specs can be found here - http://www.graupner.de/en/products/1d80881f-8353-4c86-8a6d-2ebefc64e1c1/33116/product.aspx

Seemed to pass the field inspection tonight and the built in telemetry got Andy all exited.

More soon

M

Looks well mate....
Loads of Spekky receivers be on classifieds soon then

You should be glad I couldn't get the telemetry voice to speak to me in German, I would have had a little accident I think.....

Andy (who is busy reading up on Hott stuff now )

Lol I had the german voice playing last night very funny.

I had a look also at the jetti system. seem's that Graupners first crack at 2.4 was using the Jetti system, now HOTT is completly stand alone.

M

Graupners first crack was using the American IFS system that was fundamentally flawed (there is loads of grief on the RC groups forum, look up XPS on there). I've been reading, and it seems the HoTT system is not compatible with the Jeti system, but it is remarkably similar in terms of features and price point.

I'm still quite impressed to be honest. The only issue for me, would be the fact the MX-16 looks like it is going to be the mid end set from Graupner, and as such, it is lacking a few channels. Oh, and there are no sliders available that are easy to access....

I'm going to wait to see what the Jeti transmitters look like when they come out though, I have a feeling I am going to find it hard to resist one of them (especially if it has a voice module with a female german voice.....)

Andy

Well wrong wasnt I, I new the Jetti was similar to somthing lol.

The MX-20 will big the flagship for the time being. Graupner used to use the JR tx cases but have now desided to go it alone so top end TX;s may take a while

M

They could always pretend & steal another idea off someone

Or they could get an old tuperwear box paint it silver , give it a pointless touch screen that fuckes up when you touch it and charge the earth for it!

M

They should stick to gliders, that way you might just have one model to put in the memory

Doubt it dont you remeber what I did to yours Twice!

On that bombshell, I want to get that back in the air, so when you do your tidy to move exercise I'll pick it up

ok buddy will sort that for u

BB

cheers

Right been playing and we now have full english TX words, sexy female english voice on telemetry (have to use earphones) and real time flight logging on my laptop.

wicked

M

will that tell you why you crashed as well in a sexy english female voice

"Altitude minus 3 feet".....

Heh heh....

Heh heh....

Did yours say that when the Delta went minus 6 feet & counting

"woop woop pull up woop woop pull up woop........"

Arses

M

That would be pretty useless if you were inverted at the time....

Unfortunately, the delta was on Spektrum, and therefore no telemetry, no bells and whistle, and I'm 99% certain that there was no Signal being received too....

Anyone want to buy a Spektrum AR500? Perfect condition, very rugged......

the AR5000 i put down to at least 3 crashes its a crap RX

M

Up until now, I have only had good results with it. I've got one in both rocket planes, and the little one has been faultless. I also used one in my old wing, which had many many hours airtime on it....

Maybe this is the kick up the rear I need to convert everything over to Jeti......

Andy

Ill have the AR500 any day - got loads, and none have ever hinted at a problem. What price Andy ( bearing in mind its dubious performance, and crashed, and S/H etc )

I'm not classing it as a crash, just that it was involved in a landing that was at a less than optimal descent rate and angle of attack.....

Dunno about a price though, make me an offer?

Andy

£15

£20 and it is yours
