Another question:1) In ALES competition, what screen does the scorekeeper need to see at the end of the round? Or is it just assumed that if you've selected "ALES 150", the motor will turn off at the appropriate altitude?
Scorekeeper does not need to see the screen. Only you do. It is the honor system that you have it set correctly. If you are launching much higher than the rest of the group, it will be obvious.
2) Do we still use timekeepers for each pilot?
Yes
3) My transmitter insists on putting the airbrake control on the throttle stick. Right now, the throttle stick is doing dual duty for throttle & crow. That makes for a problem if you allow emergency restarts of the motor AND want to use the airbrake. I'm considering using ch8 for the throttle, controlled with the left side slider. (I have camber adjustment on the right side slider) How are the throttle & airbrake divied up on a typical transmitter today?
That is the normal layout for most of us from what I can tell. Left slider or the three position switch for throttle as you only need it for the launch, or to save your plane. Left stick is flaps/ crow, Rigth slider is typically camber fine adjust.
