SE Special Edition…And Serious Edge


Take the already groundbreaking features of Spektrum’s DX7 radio system, including the unmatched clarity of DSM2™, ModelMatch™ and ServoSync™…then take it to the next level specifically for cutting edge heli pilots. The result is the DX7se. It’s about way more than looks.

The Search for Speed Stops Here

The DX7se takes Spektrum’s already incredible speed and gives it a shot of adrenaline. Combining an 11ms frame rate with a latency range that’s 50% less than our closest competitor delivers the absolute fastest air radio on the market with the most consistent response. And that low latency range is attributable directly to Spektrum’s unique DSM technology. In the pursuit of even more precise control, heli pilots are looking for an extreme link between their radio systems and control surfaces, and the DX7se offers just that. No other radio system has a lower latency, resulting in a responsiveness that is nearly telepathic without compromising the RF link quality.

This was originally a 72MHz set and has a different switch configuration and software to the MacGregor version. The model number isNET-N239FS, as marked on the front left hand switch plate.

There CE test certification will therefore not apply to these foreign sets. MacGregor sets are marked NET239ES and have a MacGregor/JR label in the centre Buyers of foreign sets are urged to seek reassurance that these sets have been fully tested before they buy and should not just rely on the fact that they have a small CE sticker inside the module recess The BMFA have informed us that their insurer could decline to defend a claim from a modeller using illegal equipment.

At 3D Masters 2006 Jeff Barringer, 3D Masters Contest Director, released details of 3DX, a global 3D format for 3D helicopter competition.

The standard, based on the successful 3D Masters format, will allow entrants to choose 6 Set Manoeuvres from the current set of 30 3D Masters Set Manoeuvres coupled with a Freestyle sequence. The structure also lends itself to Electric Indoor events and employs a peer-judging system at its simplest level, rising to one or more 3D Masters Judges presiding over higher-level events.]]> no_email@example.com (alex) http://www.rotorwash.co.uk/article77.html The Szabos join the Carbon Xtreme Avant Team http://www.rotorwash.co.uk/article76.html
Alan Szabo Jr. and Danny Szabo have joined the Avant Team with Alan Szabo Sr. as the new Team Manager. This news comes as 3D Masters is only a few weeks away. The Szabo's will fly the new Aurora which uses the Avant Programmable Head, first seen in upgrade form and the helicopter is very slim with a low frontal area, which should make it very slippery. The model has been designed with a low parts count, making it easy to repair and maintain.
