Because it's a big stretch that he might have multiple machines on the same network that might benefit from a high speed connection between themselves.
I must admit that's the first time I've ever seen that phrase used, and actually thought it was somewhat funny, instead of just wanting to punch the person who came up with it.
Many of the very experienced pilots in my club (who can program a computer radio in their sleep) don't own laptops, and for the most part have no interest in learning how to use a PC. Nor would they want to lug one out to the field (they already have enough stuff to carry just in the plane and support equipment).
I realize you're probably joking, (at least I hope so), but in case you weren't, I think you'd be kicked out of the club and/or off the property pretty fast if you started messing with peoples very expensive airplanes like that.
I don't think this would be my (or anyone else's really) choice for a sailplane radio... At least I seriously doubt that's the intended target market.
I'm sure Futaba is marketing this thing to people doing serious aerobatics,3d flying, and helis. Applications where you would never come close to flying for an hour.
If a "higher-class" radio like this doesn't do as much as their previously "highest class" radio. (mixing, sequences, v-tail, whatever...), then someone needs to be fired.
I think it's safe to assume this thing would do anything any of their previous radios would do, and more.
As for servos, I doubt it would come with anything, since at that class of equipment, modelers tend to be very picky about servo sizes, torque, etc.
On the large photo of the transmitter there's 2 sticks, just like on a standard r/c plane or heli transmitter... I'm sure you still actually fly the thing with those.
I'm pretty sure entrapment would only be applicable if there was legal punishments involved, not just simply shutting off access to something you never paid for and don't own.
Bet you it's not long till someone makes you pay 50 cents per play for something, just like we used to in the arcade. They'll probably even try and make it cute by making you drop "virtual quarters" into a slot in the steam (or whatever BS client they're using then) each time as it deducts that from your account or credit card.
The article only states that Microsoft dominance will last at least two to four years more, it does not imply it might wane after that point. Only that it is a lock until then.
Taken straight from the top of the artidle:
Microsoft's dominance in operating systems will continue - though only for the next few years.
You're right...it doesn't imply that it might wane...it implies that it will.
Not that I agree...I think microsoft (unfortunately) will be dominant for a lot longer than that.
Hmmm...so say someone buys doom 3, opens it, copies the cd's, writes down the serial number, then smashes one of the cds, return it, get another copy, with a new key... suddenly you have 2 copies of doom that work online.
Think maybe that's why most places won't take software returns after it's been opened? I bet it is.
It does mine... I watch some hour long shows sometimes in 15 minutes (but usually 30 or 45) because I can skip through all the crap I don't want, and just see the part I'm interested in.

Seems to me they made a connection between OSS and *fighting* kiddie porn, not getting it.
The band say so, but what does the record company (and RIAA) say? That's where the problem is.
Dude...he was talking about McDonalds insulting their employess with low pay, not making people fat.
Yeah...who does my boss think he is?!

Ask whoever wrote the DMCA
Tell that to my wife and 4-month-old son.
I have to think that if I was keeping porn at work I'd suddently have a lost job too. :)
Who cares what he's building? The radios primary intent (if not only intent, I haven't looked to see what frequency band it's on) is Aircraft.

I'm not a physics guy, so I didn't realize that.. Now that you mention it, I get "opposing force", but what is a "blue shift" in scientific terms?

Tell that to my World of Warcraft guild. I think they would be surprised.

I achieved that feat playing with Hot-Wheels when I was 8 years old.

I never thought I'd see a statement like that on /.
He might, but I'm scared that so will Hillary...and she'll get the party nomination...
