That must have taken some thought, Crap and Wrong. No explanation as to why
you think this,
You must be one of those GURUS who knows everything, and we should just
follow what you say without question.

That's becase I don't "think" it is, I *KNOW* it is.

I don't agree with most of the settings for the various flight modes,
and don't see the usefullness of the tool since I can see my curves in
my Tx just fine, but it's semi-interesting to see..

It was interesting to me too Kev, but not because it was accurate or
informative.

Well, I'm a few minutes from the maiden flight on my Trex 600.  I hope
it doesn't crash 'cuz I didn't use that chart when setting up my
pitch/throttle curves...  :)

Welp, it went just peachy.  Tracking was dead-nutz on and it didn't
need any trim at all.  The only bad part was the wife coming and
trying to give me a hug when I was on the 2nd battery in a 10' hover.

Things got a bit "wobbly" at that point.

I take tea in the morning. High caffiene tea though, coz I'm a MAN :)

I've got a pal coming over next week (he's a tea drinker too:-)  to stay
while he converts to Enstrom heli's. (Turbo 280) He's been an instructor
with his own R22 for the last few years, but now he's moving to Enstroms, so
it's looking like I'll be playing in one towards the end of the week IF the
f.cking weather behaves itself. Not looking promising though, I have to say.

Mother Nature is a bitch when it comes to mixing weather and fun...
What's he gonna do with the 22?  Donate it to an affable young lad in
the US?

Always bone china, but leave my pinkie out of this.

He recently sold it to a woman (really). He was assured it'd be well cared
for, but from all accounts, that's not been the case and it's looking
decidedly neglected. I don't think the 22 has flown since it was sold.

Yeah, me too. If all goes well, I'll get to see it this coming week if it's
still there. I'll get a pic or two if it is and post it on th' binary group.

According to its previous owner, he thinks it's probably rotted away through
neglect. Some peeps really DO have more money than sense.

At least if it was wadded up, it went out flying instead of corroding
away....

But rotting away meant it went to its doom on its own, taking no-one with
it.
