Signal Quality. Spektrum telemetry modules keep tabs on the quality of the signal coming to the receiver and send this information back to the transmitter where it is represented on the LCD screen using a familiar signal bar scale.
A pendulum is a weight suspended from a pivot so that it can swing freely. When a pendulum is displaced sideways from its resting, equilibrium position, it is subject to a restoring force due to gravity that will accelerate it back toward the equilibrium position.
A lever is any elongated, rigid object that rotates around a fixed point called the fulcrum (fig. 9.15). Familiar examples include a seesaw and a crowbar. Rotation occurs when an effort applied to one point on the lever overcomes a resistance (load) located at some other point. The part of a lever from the fulcrum to the point of effort is called the effort arm, and the part from the fulcrum to the point of resistance is the resistance arm. In the body, a long bone acts as a lever, a joint serves as the fulcrum, and the effort is generated by a muscle attached to the bone.
