This Joe Nall we were able to see a beautiful giant RC Pitts Challenger III fly… and guess what it flew on – JETI!!! Take a look at Simon Bartlett’s beautiful Bill Hempel Pitts Challenger III cut through the sky, flown by “Dr. Low” himself, Markus Rummer. This plane has a 2.8m (110″) wingspan and a length of just over 2.6m (103″). It runs a KOLM BX240-4 engine, Bavarian Demon Cortex Pro stabilization unit, and uses the Jeti Central Box 400 system.

Recently we have gotten many questions about how data logging and the capability to immediately display data on your transmitter screen post flight can help you become a better pilot. There are many areas where the Jeti system answers all your questions giving you detailed information about performance of individual components that could explain, improve or even prevent a catastrophe. We have to remember that the Jeti Transmitter is a scientific instrument and in our hands it will become the indispensable tool which helps us with improving performance, enjoyment, and safety of our hobby.
Jeti systems enable you to display, modify, delete, zoom in/out, and compare sets of data at any time without using the computer. All of this happens in your hands at the field. Once you finish your flight you will be holding all the answers to your questions in your hands. The Jeti System displays the activated alarms and all telemetry data right in front of you.
| Rx A1 | Antenna Signal Strength | Am I getting 9, should I relocate antenna? |
| Rx A2 | Antenna Signal Strength | Am I getting 9, should I relocate antenna? |
| Rx Q | Signal Quality | Am I getting 100%, should I relocate the receiver? |
| Mezon Battery Amp (A) | How many Amps is system pulling with current propeller? |
| Mezon Battery Voltage (V) | How is battery voltage holding in correlation to the load? |
| Motor RPM | What is the correlation between battery voltage and RPM? |
Post Flight Evaluation
| SBEC Current (A) | Are the servos overloading the Rx or BEC? |
| ESC Temperature | Increases over time, Am I overheating the ESC? |
| Motor Temperature | Increases over time, Am I overheating the Motor? |
Post-Crash Diagnostics (Unfortunately in Happens)
| Rx A1 | Antenna Signal Strength | Did we lose any of the antennas, were they shielded or damaged? |
| Rx Q | Signal Quality | Was the 2.4Ghz spectrum clear, any interference? |
| SBEC | Output Voltage | Did we lose power over the flight? |
Test drive the latest in Jeti Technology – The Jeti DC-24 – complete with transmitter tray and 4-point harness. Check it out!
This years noon demos at Joe Nall were nothing short of amazing. Take a look at some of the photos we grabbed.
Our first Joe Nall Test Drive!!!
Our Jeti Taste Test went well! Check it out below.
We saw so many beautiful pieces of Aircraft, as usual, at Joe Nall 2017. Check out some of what we saw.
