Can you see the videos Peter? I posted in safari browser but google chrome browser does not show them. So I do not know what happens with other browsers.

Some suggestions for small models here - http://eezebilt.tk/radio.html - the rudder suggestion is a way down the page.  Only a single rudder set up is shown, but the system will accommodate two just as easily.

Thank you all for your suggestions I just could not think how to connect but now it look straight forward, I thought I replied last night I typed a reply but must have hit delete instead of send it was getting late,                    I hope to get my daughter to help me to post photo`s again I managed a few years back but will try again.          Where do P M s get sent ? I looked on emails but nothing there.  Many thanks for help Peter.  (sparrow)
