Flight Detent, I'm sure you have no intention of renewing the old discussion of mode 2 versus . .mode 1. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" /> . .. .I feel the subject is best left alone and new flyers left to start on whatever mode they are taught on.. .. .It's a pity the RC manufacturers did not decide on a standard mode right at the beginning and stick with it.
