Having flown both the Arrow 3 and Turbo Arrow 4, I would opt for the N/A Arrow 3. Its a better performer if you are not operating in the mountains/hot&high. The Turbo Arrow 4 I now fly is a dog! I cannot get more than 300 fpm no matter what airspeed I try.

I would love to go, but that is our St Patrick's Day Parade (Dublin OH). Our local veterans groups lead the parade and I am providing transport for one of the disabled vets that day. Last I heard, the B-25 went to North or South Dakota last week. Maybe it will be back for you to see.

I just looked in my box. I have the manual, but I did not find a Quick Reference Card. The learning curve is not very steep. Play with the menus and plug in some waypoints.

The handheld rubberduckie antenna is going to be polarized to whatever angle you hold it. Nav signals are horizontally polarized. Comm signals are vertically polarized.

If you aren't connecting it to an external nav antenna its not going to give you accurate sensitivity due to antenna/signal polarization.

The distance/speed solutions are simple vector coordinate problems. Speed is determined by the time and position of the updated position with reference to the previous position. Distance is the calculation between two points. Speed is the time between the two points The box calculates the...

But the FX8 costs twice as much and may not be as functional.

Rye grass used to be the preferred seed. I have heard zoysia is now being used, but I don't know how they compare.

Its the unplanned remodeling that makes it unpleasant. Another friend once asked the question, "How do you start a flood?"
