I am looking for C/L Scale builder & flyer user reports of LineMaster 2.4 GHz Typhoon systems

I do not have a LineMaster 2.4 GHz Typhoon.  For now, I have decided to stay with my Spectrum DX5 setup.  I am sure that Carlos Diaz will reply soon to your inquiry.

Hello Peter,
It is Carlos Diaz over here, the developer of linemaster 2.4GHz.
I think I can put you in touch with some current users of the LineMaster 2.4GHz Typhoon.
Let me know if you're interested.

Best regards.

That would cartainly help our intention to promote F4B (C/L Scale FAI) and C/L semi-scale in Switzerland, Carlos. May I suggest you publish my e-mail address peterdgermann@bluewin.ch asking users to share experience?

krgds, Peter

Hi Peter,

I've just posted a message in the LineMaster 2.4GHz development community facebook group asking current Typhoon users to contact you and share their experiences. Hopefully some of them will reach out to you soon.

If you'd like, you're also very welcome to join the community here:

I am interested in the initial setup cost of a handle & receiver for one aircraft and additional receivers for more models.

Hallo Peter,
Here is the case involving carrier action in Almere, Netherlands.
Flight officer Bart v.d. Bossche (Belgium)
42 seconds per lap!
Functions:
Motor controller
Release catch hook



Best regards, Robert

I copied this from the site and need to have things explained to me:

Features
- Compact and lightweight design with excellent ergonomics
- Internal antenna
- Proportional throttle
- 4 Auxiliary Channels (1x 2-Position switch, 1x 3-Position switch and 2x Self-locking Buttons)
- 5 Random Motion Generators
- Monochrome OLED display 128x64 px
- 5-ways cursor for menu navigation and throttle trim adjustment
- Throttle cut button
- Slide & lock quick model change
- SD card (included)
- Charging LEDs

5 Random Motion Generators?
2x self-locking buttons?  Is this for toggle-type functions?

Hi Paul,
The random motion generator feature was scrapped before launch; I tried to remove it from the documentation but I see it slipped through in a few places. It has now been corrected.

Yes, the self-locking buttons are for channels 4 and 5 and act as a toggle switch (ON/OFF). These were used because, ergonomically, they are better suited for the limited space and the position in which they are located.

Hi Carlos,
Has there been any progress regarding the "all-in-one box"—i.e., servo, receiver, and battery all combined into a single unit, and about the size of a 10-gram servo?
Kind regards,

Robert

Some F2d flyers in Ontario and Michigan have beaten the 10 gram target, but they don't market the units.  They CAN transfer the module to another plane right quick.

Linemaster is here. Gotta play with it thoroughly before commenting.

Tell us what you think

This could be interesting. I'm sure if 30 different people were asked, you'd get 30 different answers. So here we go- Out of the box it looks like it will do everything I need it too. Overall size is a little smaller than I thought. If given the option, I would have preferred 4 toggle switches over the 2 and 2 format. I've got rather large hands so I find the channel 4 and 5 buttons too close to the handle to use comfortably. Also with big hands the 5 way selector switch gets bumped when reaching for the toggles. I made a guard for the 5 way out of 3/4 pvc pipe, it also protects the switch from damage during transport to the field. All of my newer R/c stuff is well over 20 years old so no comments on how it works yet\ I reckon most people would have a personal preference on the channel switches so don't take my likes as cannon. Theres several neat features that I didn't see advertised- A motor cutoff button (not sure how that will work with a servo yet), and a buzzer/shaker if the unit is turned on without the aux channel switches in the proper position.  Overall I like it. Pics of the 5 way guard below, could be part of the 3d printing if theres ever a upgrade.

Thank you very much for the detailed feedback. I completely agree, designing a product that works equally well for everyone is extremely difficult, especially because every pilot is accustomed to their own handles, and operating habits. However, feedback like yours often leads to ideas that can benefit many users.

The guard for the five-way selector is an interesting idea, and I will definitely keep it in mind for future designs. I do not think it would be very difficult to design an optional 3D-printed piece specifically for that purpose.

The decision to use two push buttons instead of four toggle switches came from something I discovered during prototyping. When two toggle switches are installed vertically in that area, the lever of the upper switch can point downward while the lever of the lower switch points upward. In those positions, the two levers become very close to each other, making them difficult to operate independently. I believed that would create an even more noticeable usability problem, so I chose the two-toggle and two-button arrangement.

Regarding the throttle-cut button, it is mainly intended for glow or gasoline-powered airplanes that use a servo to control the carburetor. In each model configuration, you can adjust the minimum and maximum travel positions for every channel. For the throttle channel, the minimum position—when the trigger is fully released and forward—can be configured so the carburetor remains slightly open at idle. The maximum trigger position can then be adjusted to correspond with the carburetor being fully open. With that setup, the carburetor always remains at least partially open, regardless of the trigger position, so the engine continues running at idle when the trigger is released. The throttle-cut function provides a separate servo position beyond the normal throttle range. You configure this cutoff position in the model menu, typically at the point where the carburetor closes completely.

When the throttle-cut button is held for approximately one second, the throttle servo moves to that configured cutoff position, fully closes the carburetor, and stops the engine.

Sweet! Thats exactly how I want it to work.
Stumbled across the facebook page and saw the pics. Nice work on the guard, quick too
