RC RADIO SCAM ?

[Houndpup Rc]

I've been setting up all my new aircraft with ELRS receivers. I think I'm up to 8 now. I'm pretty partial to the ER4 using SBus into a HobbyEagle A3S4. Do have a few that are just running the ELRS receiver straight to the servos though. Now that I'm getting battery telemetry on all my new stuff, it pains me to fly my older models with AR630s and such.

The Gen2 Lemons are still tempting though. I like the idea of a panic button, available with the HobbyEagle, but I can't remember the last time I needed it. If I could get myself away from the idea of needing it, the Gen2 Lemons would be a great fit...and cheap.

But still ELRS seems to be the future for now and it's fun to be able to configure stuff via a web browser.

Yeah, when I have stabilize in my planes, I forget to use it....Until after I crash!😂

I always use a neck strap, just about really screwed up one time had a gasser that quit taxing out to the runway. Bent over to flip the prop not thinking my radio swung right into prop, thank goodness it did not start first flip. Now anytime I start a nitro or gasser my transmitter is laying on the ground .

That could have been bad!😬😅

I have a throttle cut/Arm switch on everything. Throttle bumps can be bad.

I really wish I could make a drone or an airplane and drop stuff like watermelons from it but I unfortunately cant because it's highly illegal where I live. According to the laws of the country I live in u cant strap a dropping mechanism on any drone or airplane.

Oh and also does anyone here have a radiolink ? And if so how good are those radios ?
