Letters: Voice of religious should be listened to in economic debate
Letters to the editor
Published 08/07/2014 | 02:30
What is significantly absent in recent debates about the measures required to get the country back on its feet is the voice of the churches, having silenced themselves through fear of being accused of unwarranted interference in politics.
The relationship between church, particularly the Catholic Church, and state has never really recovered from the infamous involvement in the ill-fated Mother and Child Scheme, opposition to it arising from a neurotic fear of socialism. Since then, any hint of involvement by the churches in informing government policy is aggressively cut off at source.
The notion that church and state could ever be separable is absurd. It rests on the assumption that there are two domains, the sacred and the profane.
There is but one, the domain of the human search for a way of life that works to the advantage of all. The institutional church has been its own worst enemy in failing to project a real concern for people in their worldly circumstances – an issue close to the heart of Pope Francis. It is as if the life of the golf clubhouse was more important than the game.
Irish people, be they secularists, humanists or atheists, to varying degrees believe in the basic tenets of Christianity. By this I mean that they seek to live in accordance with the spirit of the Sermon on the Mount.
The fact that the current programme for the recovery of the economy hits the poor hardest of all, amid the continuing shameless self-administering of exorbitant and unearned salaries, pensions and severance awards by members of government, raises key questions of justice that are central to Christian and secularist thinking.
Questions of justice should be at the heart of the ministrations of church and state. Differences between churches are irrelevant in the context of current human needs but differences in how seriously we take the plight of the poor are radically significant.
JobBridge is really working
In light of the recently publicised JobBridge scheme of a 30-hour week picking potatoes for €238, it should be pointed out that the frequent attacks on JobBridge represent nothing more than unfair, political point-scoring that often backfires.
Look at what the initiative actually entails. An unemployed person, whose official title is job seeker, is given reasonably paid, non-exploitative work that, in 60pc-plus cases, leads to follow-up permanent employment. Even if it doesn't lead to permanent employment, the individual can put on their CV that they were willing to work.
All these things add up to a solid government initiative that is shrinking the dole queues, and in the right way, at minimal cost, and without the burden of extra taxes on the wider population.
We can take heart in the fact that high-profile people who blindly denied those realities, and based their entire platform on that denial, failed at the last elections – both local and European.
I'm sure, though, that in such people's current unemployment, JobBridge could turn up an internship they'd enjoy, if only they'd swallow their pride.
Leo loses his roar in office
Speak up, Leo.
In recent weeks, Jimmy Deenihan, Phil Hogan and Pat Rabbitte have appointed several government cronies to state boards. These appointments have been defended by Enda Kenny, who said they brought a "wealth of experience", and by Richard Bruton.
One person that has been quiet on the subject is Leo Varadkar. Perhaps this is because in early 2011, with Fine Gael in opposition, Mr Varadkar lambasted the Fianna Fail/Green government for doing exactly what his own colleagues are engaging in.
On his website, regarding appointments to state boards, Mr Varadkar stated that "these and other positions are hugely important positions which should be subjected to considerable public scrutiny. Unfortunately, based on past experience, outgoing government ministers will use their remaining time in office to pack these State bodies with political appointees."
This is just another blatant example of the hypocrisy that has been the hallmark of this Government.
Both parties made numerous promises prior to the election, particularly with regard to ethics and the manner in which they would go about their politics. Since they have taken power, however, this Government has proved itself to be one of the most devious, cynical and untrustworthy in the history of the State, arrogantly standing over an extensive list of broken promises.
Residents should strike a deal
I remember some years back when Bertie almost got his way regarding building the 'Bertie Bowl' – I just thought how lucky we were that he didn't get his way in the end.
We have something so unique in this wonderful city of ours – two fantastic stadiums located bang in the centre of the city.
How brilliant is that? It means that visitors can walk from their hotels to the event, be it sport or music. They can also arrange to meet friends easily before or after the event for drinks or food – it just works so well and creates business for numerous people.
The residents of Croke Park were right to object to five concerts in a row, it's just too much. I know because I live close to Lansdowne Road.
I accept the consequences of living close to a stadium, but to be hemmed in for five nights in a row is not on.
What was even more right was that they were heard, which makes it great to know that people power still works. I hope that this a lesson for the two organisations.
But when you look at the economics of it all, it would be suicide for tourism in Ireland if the fourth and fifth concerts were not to go ahead at this stage – it just makes sense for the residents to allow them to go ahead, especially at this late stage.
The times they are a changin'
Tom Farrell's daughter told his granddaughters to "go and play with your tablets" (Letters, July 7).
Yes, Tom, they are mini-computing devices. God be with the days when you were told "go outside and play" cowboys and Indians or whatever. No imagination needed nowadays. Technology takes over.
Progress? Not so sure.
Enda needs to sort out this mess
Dear Enda, there are times when you remind me in looks of the late JFK. So with that in mind I have this to say:
Garth Brooks is from the USA supposedly coming here to sing for a few days
Young and old fans all over the world look on in disbelief
Those that have paid their hard earned cash and so far what have they got?
You said, he said, she said, we said – and we still have not solved the problem
You know Enda, if it were JFK he'd find a way
Be the man and get it done you'll be a hero to everyone.

Historical Traveler Reviews Birmingham Marriott Hotel
Excellent Staff
We were in Birmingham last Saturday night during the evacuation of the city. Our own hotel was evacuated and the Marriott was fully booked but, nevertheless, the staff opened up the conference room to those of us who were stranded and did not know the city. They provided us with tea, coffee, water etc and, as the night wore on, with blankets so that we could try to get some sleep. In what was a horrible situation, the wonderful staff at this hotel made us as comfortable as possible and really went above and beyond the call of duty - especially considering the fact that we were not guests at the hotel. Cannot praise them enough.
Bit of a dump
Used to be great when it was Swallow but Marriott have added their touches & destroyed the upmarket hotel that it was in its early days.
Restaurants have changed, the old bar & lounge have gone to make way for 'corporate' and you could be in any Marriott in the world (and thats not good news!!)
If you need to be in the centre of Birmingham stay at the Malmaison or the Hotel du Vin - much much better options
Solid buusiness hotel in central location
I stayed her in April while on a business trip. Had an excellent large room, well appointed bathroom, comfortable bed. Everything worked as you would expect at a hotel of this class. Good buffet breakfast available as well as 'cooked to order' items. Not a large car park which might be an issue if there is an event at the hotel while you are there. Other than that the location is great. The (in my opinion!) best restaurant in Birmingham, Simpsons, is within easy walking distance.
Good hotel
Stayed for one night in May. The hotel is about 10 - 15mins walk from the centre of birmingham (shops). The hotel is clean and well presented and staff are quite helpful.
The rooms are clean and have the finishing touches you would expect from a hotel of this price.
the only downful in my opinion was the service at the hotel restaurant and bar.
Service was slow and the food sounded better on the menu than in the actual eating.
car parking is limited and is provided at a cost.
A wonderful hotel
Our room was very large and of the standard you would expect from this type of hotel. The restaurant serves excellent food. The bar area was modern and the staff were attentive. It's a good location as it is away from all the noise of the bars along Broad Street, but still within easy walking distance.
Dissapointed and annoyed
We booked a suite at the Marriott for our anniversary and we were extremely dissapointed with what we found.
After 5 minutes trying to get into our room we eventually unlocked the door to find quite a large but uninspiring bedroom. Three of the room lamps did not work and there was a pervading smell of cigarette smoke. When we went into the adjoining lounge we found a used flip chart in the corner, various felt pens scattered around, furniture out of position and a powerful smell of cigarettes and cigars. Upon closer examination we found booking details for a 1st division football team which had obviously used the suite as a pre game meeting room. A lavatory directley outside the suite had been used and not cleaned.
I immediatley asked for another room and was accompanied back to our suite with a very pleasant and embarrassed young man who attempted to show us to another room. When we arrived we noticed a pint glass of orange juice, half empty which had been left outside the room on the carpet.
He attempted to unlock the door with the key card but found it to be impossible, he then apologised and raced off to have the key re-coded. A few minutes later he returned but the door still refused to open. It was at this point that we decided to check out and find another hotel. We ended up at the Hyatt in a standard room as all the suites were booked. Even so the room was much nicer than the suite at the Marriott and it was �120.00 cheaper. Needless to say the Marriott will not be on our future list of Birmingham hotels.
Good smart hotel
Top class , comfortable rooms , nice bar area , would stay again , situated at the roundabout at the head of the main road into the town centre ,
Fantastic staff
Stayed at the Marriot over the weekend with work colleagues as we had a deadline to meet and therefore needed somewhere central with meeting facilities available. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left all the staff were friendly and helpful and went out of their way to accommodate us. They recommended restaurants, booked the tables and taxis and generally looked after us very well. Yes, i suppose it is what you should expect, but don't always get. I would definately stay at the Marriot if i was to visit Birmingham again.
Over-priced, but good staff
Nice enough room, but a bit small. NOT impressed that there is a �2.50 charge added to room service orders, and you pay to park (even on a Saturday) Nonetheless, the staff are friendly & helpful. In future, I will definitely stay at the Hyatt.
Comfortable, stylish, perfect
I have stayed here, even though i live in Birmingham, it was a present from a friend. A wonderful, warm, comfortable stay. The staff were friendly, the rooms are clean and comfortable and i loved it. I would recommend The Birmingham Marriott to anyone.

Check out some of our customer testimonials and see why Hurricane Power blowers are the best!
So what are you waiting for? Contact your local Hurricane Power dealer today and become another satisfied customer! Please check out all of our products and feel free to contact us with any questions!
I finished all my cleanups in no time thanks to my new Hurricane X3. Acorns this year were at an all-time high and the X3 moved them with ease!!
Now that we have a Hurricane we couldn't imagine clean ups without it. We could never go back. Lots of time saved
This is quality at its finest! The Hurricane Blo-Vac is the most efficient leaf blower I have ever seen. It removed leaves from my huge yard in less than 10 minutes. Customer service is also a 5 star. I would recommend this product to any lawn care business.
We can now finish up two loads of leaves by noon. Without the shredder vac that is equivalent to 18 loads of unshredded leaves! We are hoping for 2 more loads today! Productivity is sky high with our new Hurricane Blo-Vac!
The ONLY problem with a blower this big is not enough leaf work. It cuts your time in half. What would usually take us all day to do is finished by lunchtime.
Realistically, you can probably do 10-15 leaf jobs in one day with one of these. At $100 per job, give or take a few bucks, it pays for itself in less than a season and will last at least 10 years or more if you take care of it! It only takes you about 20 minutes to do an average yard with a Hurricane, so its almost crazy not to have one in your fleet!
I love my Hurricane Blo-Vac, it is very well designed and rugged. Besides the obvious power I can now go places that I couldn't with a push blower.
After using my Hurricane Blower for an hour, I contacted my dealer and bought a second one the following day. Our company reduced labor costs by at least 30%

Historical Traveler Reviews Branson's Best
Welcome to branson
stayed at bransons best 3-17-05 thru 3-20-05 , check in was quick and and staff very nice . and helpful front desk was allways helpful and and made us felt welcome everytime they seen us. loved the icecream and pie, rooms clean, and cleaned them every day when we were out . and gave us pleanty of towels each day. the beds hurt my back as they were uncomfortlbe, water didnt stay hot as maney were taken showers. but still agood place to stay and not pricey. was to far to walk to 76 strip from hotel as i was told it was a short walk.
One of the Best
I discovered this hotel on the net last summer looking for one night and wish I could have stayed several more. The room was perfect and the service top notch. Then came BREAKFAST! The best I've ever had in a small hotel such as this. Breakfast and evening sweets too! All included in one low price. Their title is well deserved. They are also located in a less traffic area which makes it quiet at night and easier to get in and out of the parking lot. Great stay, I will be back.
I stayed at the Branson's Best Inn on March 11-13. It was my first time. It was excellent. The room ( a junior suite) was great. The breakfast was hot and great. And the ice cream wasn't cheesy like I thought it would be. It was hard and cold. Not soupy. They had cookies out to die for. The walls weren't paper thin. The beds were firm and comfortable, and the service was the best I have experienced in my 4 years going to Branson. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to everyone who is staying in Branson. And the price was cheap. You get much more than you pay for.
Loved Branson's Best
We enjoyed our stay at Branson's Best. It is on Green Mountain Dr. The rooms were neat and clean. The staff was very helpful when we had questions. They had plenty of ice cream and cobbler after the shows every night. The breakfast had all kinds of items. If you wanted something light or a hot breakfast, they had it. We will stay there again. The price isn't bad either.
Great place to stay!!!
Branson's Best Motel was a great place to stay. We stayed for 2 nights and it was a wonderful visit. The location was the best part. If you have been to Branson before you know the traffic on 76 is a nightmare, Branson's Best is located on one of the alternate route's so it made it very easy to get from place to place. The motel itself was very very clean, which is what I look for. The bathroom's were immaculate. The outside property was cleaned several times a day, there were staff outside sweeping the sidewalks and parking lot all day. We had a room with two queen beds, and with two smaller kids it was a little cramped, but no big deal since we were not in our room much. The pool was clean. The breakfast was a typical hotel breakfast, but saved us from eating out and wasting an hour to eat out. Overall this was a great place to stay. VERY QUIET!! Would highly recommend.
Branson's Best, great for the price!
Just got back from Branson. We stayed at the Branson Best Hotel for 3 days/2 nights. The rooms where very clean. The pool was kind of small and only went to 5ft. But the kids seemed to like it. It was open from 9am-10pm. They served a nice breakfast of biscuts and gravy, fresh donuts and bread, along with eggs, waffles, and cream of wheat, and cereal. Along with coffee, juice and milk. Breakfast is served 6am-10am. Try to get there early to get early because once it runs out that is it. Nightly they served apple and black berry cober with ice cream. YUM!! Best get it when it is first brought out or you will only get ice cream from the machine, they do not bring out anymore once the first serving is gone. They also serve fresh cookies.
Check out was fast and friendly and the maids were very attentive and friendly. This hotel also sits next to a restaurant called Dockers, which is a big showboat style. They have a big buffet. It is easy to just walk there than drive, and up the hill about 300 ft is a gas station and liquor store.
I would stay here again. I was most impressed by how quite and safe it was there at night. Before I foget, the beds and pillows where very soft and we slept like babies at night.
The rooms where average size, clean and well maintained, even the bathrooms where spotless. We had two queen size beds in our room, hair dryer, iron board/iron and plenty of towels. No coffee maker in room but it was served 24/7 in the lobby. Ice maker, soda and water machines outside by main office. Soda and water cost 1.35, coffee free. If you want the daily paper it is also outside by the main office in a paper machine. There was T.V. and it had local channels and a few channels of HBO, CNN, weather channel and ESPN.
I will return here again. You can email me if you like.
Branson's Best is really the Best!!!!!
Great location, breakfast, and oh yes the ice cream and cobbler each evening!!!! Great staff. Have used their tickets service, always getting great seats. We have stayed there about 7 times. Their 3 day package can't be beat!!!!!! Been there once this year and going back in August.
"The BEST"
This motel has become the standard by which we judge all other motels. It is by far our favorite motel anywhere.
Loved the extra's
I stayed at Branson Best Motel for 3 days. We had free cobbler and ice cream every evening. It was a delicious bedtime snack. We enjoyed the excellent breakfast. It was better than going out to eat, there was such a variety of food offered. I needed extra pillows and blankets.
The ladies at the front desk were very helpful and with a real smile. I enjoyed swimming in the pool. My room was very clean and tidy. My stay at this hotel was wonderful!
Branson's Best Motel was the best!
We stayed at Branson's Best Motel. It was the best motel we have stayed
at to date. Clean and very affordable. Their free breakfasts were
better than some we paid for! Always pleasant and helpful, the coffee
was always on, and the ice cream and cobbler every evening was great.
Will stay there again.

Mining Silicon Valley's Culture
Big Companies Set Up Outposts in Search of New Ideas but Some Falter
In roughly the past two years, Target Corp. TGT -0.35 % , General Electric Co. GE -0.70 % , Ford Motor Co. F -0.04 % , Johnson & Johnson JNJ -0.07 % and other big companies have opened outposts in or near Silicon Valley in search of ideas and exposure to new technologies not likely to be created in places like Fairfield, Conn., or Detroit.
Such companies spent decades watching from the sidelines as Silicon Valley startups developed into some of the fastest-growing and most influential companies of their time. Not surprisingly, companies from around the world—including retailers and old-line industrial giants—ventured to California to tap some of Silicon Valley's culture based on risk taking, speed, innovation and both hypercompetition and collaboration.
Some of the efforts have paid off with increased e-commerce sales, entries into new markets and faster new-product development. But for every company like auto maker BMW AG BMW 0.78 % that reaped benefits from early partnerships with firms such as Apple Inc., there are companies like Barnes & Noble Inc. BKS -1.65 % that have struggled to capitalize on their Northern California investments.
The companies that achieved success learned to insinuate themselves into the region's ecosystems, taking advantage of what others created but also adding innovations of their own. They figured out ways to successfully collaborate and strike partnerships, and, most critically, devised ways to transmit what they learned throughout their organizations.
"We take our ideas and socialize them into the rest of the company," says Darren Liccardo, head of the BMW Group Technology Office in Mountain View, Calif. Members of the 30-strong research group often spend two to three years working in Munich, Germany, so they can exchange ideas with colleagues. And staff from Germany—from rank-and-file engineers to BMW's chief executive and board members—regularly visit the Silicon Valley office.
Companies that have had difficulty taking advantage of their westward treks— AOL Inc., Motorola MSI 0.34 % and Lucent Technologies come to mind—often have had legacies of closed networks or proprietary technological standards, which can weigh on efforts to adapt.
Lucent ended up merging in 2006 with French rival Alcatel. ALU 0.00 % The new company, Alcatel-Lucent SA, said Lucent's old efforts in the area were too long ago to comment on, but that it has successful operations in Silicon Valley today.
Motorola Mobility, now owned by Google Inc., said the recent establishment of its Advanced Technologies and Products Group in Sunnyvale, Calif., make its 10-year-old Silicon Valley presence more important than ever.
An AOL spokesman said that the company has embraced open networks and technical standards and that its Palo Alto, Calif., team is helping to propel growth.
Wal-Mart Stores Inc. WMT -1.06 % in April 2011 acquired a software startup called Kosmix that became the genesis of @WalmartLabs, the research and development arm of the retailer's e-commerce division. With Kosmix and subsequent acquisitions, the company gained expertise in new data, mobile, search and social technologies. The labs helped develop a new search engine for Walmart.com, and the company is now seeing almost 20% more "conversions"—or actual purchases—because of that capability, says Ravi Raj, vice president of product development for @WalmartLabs.
Mr. Raj says Wal-Mart's presence in Silicon Valley has helped the company use social technologies more quickly than it would have from its Bentonville, Ark., headquarters. Mr. Raj oversees Goodies, a new social shopping business that was built from the ground up in six months. Shopycat is a Facebook app of Walmart's that recommends gifts for friends and family based on their likes and activity. The lab also created Spark Studio, which helps customers discover Wal-Mart merchandise that is popular on the social network Pinterest.
Ford doesn't look at its Silicon Valley office as a satellite. "It is organically and organizationally part of Ford's greater global Research and Innovation operations," says K. Venkatesh Prasad, senior technical leader for open innovation, who splits his time between the company's Dearborn, Mich., headquarters and its year-old, 10-person research lab in Palo Alto. "We are one team, working together. There is a portfolio of projects we manage globally," he says.
The projects include rapid, six-week prototyping using 3-D printers and embedded electronics and software. The offices also have worked together on the creation of OpenXC, which helps developers and customers innovate with Ford products. Ford staff in Dearborn have participated in "hackathons," with some scientists and engineers in the Palo Alto and Dearborn labs working together as instructors, according to Mr. Prasad.
Silicon Valley newcomers have helped themselves by creating office spaces for other startups to occupy, as well as forging partnerships with big technology companies like Apple and Google.
BMW, which first came to the area 15 years ago, joined with with Apple to create the first iPod integration ever into its vehicles. "That probably would not have been possible if we hadn't had a presence in Silicon Valley," Mr. Liccardo says. Collaborating with other companies helped the German luxury-auto maker develop prototypes that led to the development of its i3 electric vehicle, expected to enter the U.S. market early next year.
That proximity to startups can be beneficial when companies want to make strategic investments. In April, General Electric invested $105 million for a 10% stake in Pivotal, a new venture created from operations spun out of EMC Corp. and VMware unit. GE's Software Center, based in San Ramon, Calif., will use Pivotal's software to develop new applications that support its vision of the industrial Internet. The Pivotal deal was completed in just 90 days. "You couldn't do that if you weren't here," says Bill Ruh, vice president of the GE's global software center, which was unveiled in March 2011.
Companies that stumble in Silicon Valley are often unwilling to give up their affinity for closed networks or proprietary systems. After Barnes & Noble came to Silicon Valley to develop its Nook e-reader in 2009, it initially limited the apps to its Nook color devices, instead of making them compatible with all apps in the Google Play store, said Ross Rubin, principal analyst at Reticle Research.
That was a problem because the bookseller limited its audience to the small group of Nook users, and reflected the company's lack of understanding about how to take advantage of larger ecosystems. "In the tablet market, it is difficult to make a strong go of it, even when you fully embrace the ecosystem," Mr. Rubin said. Barnes & Noble CEO William Lynch stepped down on July 8 after mounting sales losses related to the Nook were disclosed in June.
Barnes & Noble said it is very proud of the Nook, and that it regards its Silicon Valley efforts as very successful.

New Peak Lodge opens todayDecember 27,2013Anthony Edwards / Staff Photo
The inside of Killington Ski Resort's newly reconstructed Peak Lodge is seen on the inside during its opening day Friday.Staff Report
KILLINGTON — Killington Ski Resort opened its new Peak Lodge to the public today.
The ski area held a preview Thursday for holders of season passes.
The 15,000-square-foot Peak Lodge has seating for up to 300 guests, a restaurant, a full-service bar and lounge areas with couches and coffee tables.
Situated atop the 4,100-foot Killington Peak, the lodge offers panoramic views of the Green Mountains, White Mountains and Adirondacks.
The original Peak Lodge was built in 1967 as the summit terminal, the largest support building for Killington's first gondola.
Plans for the new $7 million lodge began more than two years ago. The 1967 lodge was taken down during the summer of 2011.
The foundation, footings and bottom floor walls of the new building were completed in the fall of 2012.
The lodge was designed by Robert Carl Williams of Pittsfield, The general contractor was Engelberth Construction of Colchester.
The venue participates in Green Mountain Power's Cow Power Program, using electricity generated from cow manure.MORE IN This Just In

New transit commission dominated by suburban councillors
4 comments:
Seems like David Chernushenko would have been a natural choice to serve on the Commission. Mathieu Fleury likely would have added some fresh perspective and his ward is heavily transit dependent.
Not impressed so far, especially with the choice of Deans for the chair.
- December 17, 2010 at 1:38 AM
Really astonished at the commissioners comments in regards to the incident on a bus where the bus driver actually told a passenger to shut up - how can that be defended by anyone especially by the commissioner - I wonder if her opinion would change if she was the individual being told to shut up - think about it - a concerned citizen of Canada

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- In a battle between two Big Ten heavyweights and with an opportunity to come up with a crucial road victory, Michigan State fell just short. The Spartans went to Assembly Hall and played well, but with starting point guard Keith Appling on the bench for most of the game in foul trouble, Indiana wouldn't let the upset take place, beating them 75-70 on Sunday.

The end of the week signals the end of the transfer window and their are a couple signings each team in the EPL must make.
Every side has strengthened in various areas during the summer and some may feel they are set up well for the season ahead.
While some managers have said they have finished signing players, we are still looking at every team in the EPL and what positions they should fill.
As the deadline day approaches there will certainly be some deals that could attract some interest and have managers making moves at the last-minute.
Here are some last-minute signings each EPL must make.

Let me know if it works for you, its an undocumented feature and as threads die searches dont work as well I guess. Thats why I humbly documented it here. It works, I've done it a few times. But please read carefully as it could potentially effect every model you have on that radio as far as once you change the stick firmware, mechanical setup gets changes slightly also..

Have a quick setup question:
In general there are two ways to adjust the amount of effective collective available: either using the PIT value in SWAASMIX or using the Pitch curve.
For this bird which is recommended? On mine if I have a full 0 to 100 linear pitch curve I have to set PIT value to around 40 to work to my liking. Or I could set it to 60 and make the curve shallower (say 20 to 80). Which is preferable? I think one is better in terms of servo resolution but I'm not sure which...
Similarly what is best way to adjust AIL/ELE amount? Let's assume 100% D/R and full travel.
Also, for setup some mention setting all SWAASMIX values to 80% or 100% during setup and to reduce it after for easier handling.
The main question I have in both cases is what is best for full servo resolution? Thx!

The point of SWASHMIX is to control how the 3 servos work together to control pitch. They need to be set correctly in order that when also applying full ELEV/AILE and full PIT there is no binding. All servos are different so some might need more or less in SWASHMIX to control the correct amount of travel. Once your SWASHMIX is set to permit full travel without binding you can meddle with the settings without fear of getting into an uncontrollable situation.
You then can mess with your ELEV/AILE/PIT curves to your hearts content to get the desired flight handling knowing that it won't mechanically get tangled up.

Yes that makes sense of course. What doesn't make sense is that the suggested per manual 80% SWASH settings already produce all kinds of binding and interactions. This is when I check it with the RX in setup mode.
So what I want to know is what is the effect if I run the RX setup with those values vs. values that don't produce any binding or interaction? On my heli that is around 60%.
Someone has sad before that the V450D01 head design doesn't allow for as much articulation as other similar heads. I don't know but I'd like to arrive at a setup where there is no binding or interaction and I can still throw the bird around with authority.
I hear a lot of "do the RX setup right and it will calculate what it needs to do" but since it's not a pure mechanical head I'd like to know the influence of the RX in total deflection, pitch, binding and interaction during regular stabilized flight.
I miss the fine control of all parameters as in the BeastX for example where you can be sure that after setting operating limits what is it that the RX can NOT do (to avoid problems).
Hehe, your a funny guy you know that Its good you found the post 30 mins after I posted it for you. I dont know why you ask for help and then when someone gives it to you you do what you want anyway. That makes me smile LOL
Happy flights Dude
Damnit. I recalibrate my 2801-pro and it changed the only FIXED ID i have in the whole TX. So now i cannot bind to my RX, i don't know what the old fixed id was. And i have no way to reset the RX because it didn't come with a plug thing that the 2801-pro manual is saying to use. I'm about done with this bs here.
EDIT: So i made my own plug out of an old servo wire and it didn't do ANYTHING when i plugged it into the battery plug and power it on. Light still flashes rapidly looking for the TX.

The process varies from RX to RX but I think with this one you plug the ESC to BATT and short THRO so signal is shorted high.
If that doesn't work you might have to try by elimination and short the pins high or low until you find the right combination.
I have a feeling the manual was wrong for this one. I'm sure I made a note of it somewhere though.

Not my vid but I hope it does the trick!
So now i tore the RX off the double stick pad that was there trying to figure this BS out. It was wobbling all over so I'm sure that is going to be an issue since all i had was the regular black foam tape that comes to mount 2618V and smaller RX. Its regular 3m black mounting tape but the pad the 2702V was mounted on was 5x thicker than this stuff and really soft. Hopefully it will be fine with this thinner black 3m tape on there now.
Yeah turns out one of my gyros was reversed after installing the new servo, for some reason. I suppose polarization of each servo is different or something and causes reversal of gyros?
Once i figured that out i was able to hover it without any issue. Looks like my wobble is gone, but i don't want to fly it till my 3rd servo arrives. Now I'll have a full set of version 2 09-9 servos. I found a hobby shop about 30 minutes away that actually carries nothing but Align parts basically or better. I didn't see any Eflite stuff but he was stocked up on all kinds of stuff. I was totally thrilled when i came across it randomly! To my surprise he is also a Savox dealer and can get me the MG savox servos for a nominal price, so those will be installed in the coming weeks, maybe sooner if i destroy these. I don't think i can destroy them even in a crash "as is" because the servo arm is reamed out now and only the screw holds them tight. It's kind of like an inadvertent servo saver mod that happened all on it's own in my first little crash. Seems to hold good for normal flight, but i'm not doing any pitch pumps any time soon.

what kind of fondant did you use?
I just used duff Goldman chocolate fondant :) and thank you guys :)
Nice work
My friend wants a Louis Vuitton cake for her birthday! Does this chocolate fondant you used taste good? How did you do the logos?
For the logo I made my own stencil. I bought a stencil cutter and blank stencil sheets and followed a pattern. You can either airbrush the pattern, or paint it on with your pearl or color dust. I'm not a big fan of fondant but the chocolate wasn't bad. I like to use my fondant sparingly with more icing underneath. This way it still looks pretty without losing the taste (since some people do t care for fondant).
Beautiful work! Was it difficult to put the stencilled fondant onto the cake? Did the gold rub off on the hands?
Hi! Thank you :) What I did was use the Wilton color spray. I let it set for a few minutes and quickly put it on the cake. It seemed to stay on pretty well for me.
