Latching switches are a type of electronic toggle switch. They turn on continuously when pressed and will toggle off with a second press.
Glossary
The time delay between when an input is changed in the transmitter and when it is acted upon by a servo.
Lateral cyclic direction. Specifies the direction, Normal (—) or Inverse (INV).
Subtrim that provides a linear servo response. With linear subtrim the servo center is halfway between the servo max and min points.
Lithium Polymer batteries are the preferred power sources for most electric modelers today. They offer high discharge rates and a high energy storage/weight ratio. However, using them properly and charging them correctly is no trivial task. There are many things … Continue reading
