Loosing it I seem to be loosing it and most of my possessions lately This was foretold by one of the lesser prophets "And there shall in that time be rumors of things going astray, and there will be a great confusion as to where things really are, and nobody will really know where lieth those little things with the sort of raffia work base, that has an attachment…at this time, a friend shall lose his friend's hammer and the young shall not know where lieth the things possessed by their fathers that their fathers put there only just the night before around eight o’clock... But later in The life of Brian we have this little song
Perhaps if I took more time and put things in there right place I would not
have so much trouble.
Buddy boxing the Taranis I have a buddy lead to connect my Taranis to my Turnigy TX To set up a buddy system on a Taranis you need to configure 2 pages, it could be configured to regain control by moving the elevator stick to save holding the trainer switch by using a custom switch, but is a bit complicated Below are the two screens you need, throttle would need to be from zero to the max thrust the student needs and the other values to suit depending on how clumsy they are Hit the cal button to zero any off sets The Turnigy turns on when the lead is plugged in This is on You tube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYVLNMBMI1E Page two radio set up, only ch 2 is configured inthe image
Page 7 model set up It would also be useful to set up alarms for height and decent rates to alert the instructor it can also be configured with a wireless\ system I have not tried connecting a JR or spektrum I have my Easy glider set up with this, you can try this on the flat or on the slope, just phone I am about most afternoons Taranis wrinkle |
