saturday 8.8.15

Great afternoon/evening at the field
Nice to see it busy.

Also nice to finaly fly the P47 without somthing breaking. The boys flying well too which is prety cool.

My day was good. How was yours?

Brill

Mine too, had a good few incident free flights with my chipmunk

Great afternoon. Gave the Glens Extra 300 it's maiden flight. Lost an aileron due to losing a locknut on the linkage. Second flight all OK. Roll on the next dry day!!

Good stuff seems four of us had a good day then

Set up a Bavarian Demon Cortex in the S Bach, first impressions are good probably needs a little fine tuning on the gains

Intresting. What made you go with that over the powerbox igyro

Just read several good reviews on the Cortex so jumped that way to be honest reading the specs on both they're very similar both in specs and claimed performance and both can be tweaked on a PC

Yeah they seem that way. Be intrested to hear your findings in the comming weeks

Is this the next big thing

Don't know really Rich, lots of the jet jockeys are using them, it would be a great cheat tool for IMAC holding lines is a doddle

I'll be doing plane checks at the Nationals!

It's a very small unit and it would be easily secreted away, you would however have to create a longer wiring harness than the ones supplied to stash it away from sight

Alot of the show guys use the igyro from pb. I also had a long brief with andy ellison on his at tmfc a few weekes ago very clever systems

Another give away certainly with the Cortex is that when you power up the model you have to leave the model stationary on the ground and don't give any inputs on the tranny while the giro initiates itself once it has all the servos give a couple of blips and you're good to go. The unit itself does have to be mounted centrally in the model somewhere close to the C/G but not necessarily right on it.
